3:118

یَٓا اَیُّهَا الَّذٖینَ اٰمَنُوا لَا تَتَّخِذُوا بِطَانَةً مِنْ دُونِكُمْ لَا یَاْلُونَكُمْ خَبَالًاؕ وَدُّوا مَا عَنِتُّمْۚ قَدْ بَدَتِ الْبَغْضَٓاءُ مِنْ اَفْوَاهِهِمْۚ وَمَا تُخْفٖی صُدُورُهُمْ اَكْبَرُؕ قَدْ بَیَّنَّا لَكُمُ الْاٰیَاتِ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ تَعْقِلُونَ

Ya ayyuha allatheena amanoo la tattakhithoo bitanatan min doonikum la yaloonakum khabalan waddoo ma AAanittum qad badati albaghdao min afwahihim wama tukhfee sudooruhum akbaru qad bayyanna lakumu alayati in kuntum taAAqiloona

Translations

O you who have believed, do not take as intimates those other than yourselves, for they will not spare you [any] ruin. They wish you would have hardship. Hatred has already appeared from their mouths, and what their breasts conceal is greater. We have certainly made clear to you the signs, if you will use reason

Saheeh International

O ye who believe! Take not for intimates others than your own folk, who would spare no pains to ruin you; they love to hamper you. Hatred is revealed by (the utterance of) their mouths, but that which their breasts hide is greater. We have made plain for you the revelations if ye will understand
