13:11

لَهُ مُعَقِّبَاتٌ مِنْ بَیْنِ یَدَیْهِ وَمِنْ خَلْفِهٖ یَحْفَظُونَهُ مِنْ اَمْرِ اللّٰهِؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ لَا یُغَیِّرُ مَا بِقَوْمٍ حَتّٰى یُغَیِّرُوا مَا بِاَنْفُسِهِمْؕ وَاِذَٓا اَرَادَ اللّٰهُ بِقَوْمٍ سُٓوءًا فَلَا مَرَدَّ لَهُۚ وَمَا لَهُمْ مِنْ دُونِهٖ مِنْ وَالٍ

Lahu muAAaqqibatun min bayni yadayhi wamin khalfihi yahfathoonahu min amri Allahi inna Allaha la yughayyiru ma biqawmin hatta yughayyiroo ma bianfusihim waitha arada Allahu biqawmin sooan fala maradda lahu wama lahum min doonihi min walin

Translations

For each one are successive [angels] before and behind him who protect him by the decree of Allah. Indeed, Allah will not change the condition of a people until they change what is in themselves. And when Allah intends for a people ill, there is no repelling it. And there is not for them besides Him any patron

Saheeh International

For him are angels ranged before him and behind him, who guard him by Allah's command. Lo! Allah changeth not the condition of a folk until they (first) change that which is in their hearts; and if Allah willeth misfortune for a folk there is none that can repel it, nor have they a defender beside Him
