2:87

وَلَقَدْ اٰتَیْنَا مُوسَى الْكِتَابَ وَقَفَّیْنَا مِنْ بَعْدِهٖ بِالرُّسُلِ وَاٰتَیْنَا عٖیسَى ابْنَ مَرْیَمَ الْبَیِّنَاتِ وَاَیَّدْنَاهُ بِرُوحِ الْقُدُسِؕ اَفَكُلَّمَا جَٓاءَكُمْ رَسُولٌ بِمَا لَا تَهْوٰٓى اَنْفُسُكُمُ اسْتَكْبَرْتُمْۚ فَفَرٖیقًا كَذَّبْتُمْؗ وَفَرٖیقًا تَقْتُلُونَ

Walaqad atayna moosa alkitaba waqaffayna min baAAdihi bialrrusuli waatayna AAeesa ibna maryama albayyinati waayyadnahu biroohi alqudusi afakullama jaakum rasoolun bima la tahwa anfusukumu istakbartum fafareeqan kaththabtum wafareeqan taqtuloona

Translations

And We did certainly give Moses the Torah and followed up after him with messengers. And We gave Jesus, the son of Mary, clear proofs and supported him with the Pure Spirit. But is it [not] that every time a messenger came to you, [O Children of Israel], with what your souls did not desire, you were arrogant? And a party [of messengers] you denied and another party you killed

Saheeh International

And verily We gave unto Moses the Scripture and We caused a train of messengers to follow after him, and We gave unto Jesus, son of Mary, clear proofs (of Allah's sovereignty), and We supported him with the Holy spirit. Is it ever so, that, when there cometh unto you a messenger (from Allah) with that which ye yourselves desire not, ye grow arrogant, and some ye disbelieve and some ye slay
