46:26

وَلَقَدْ مَكَّنَّاهُمْ فٖیمَٓا اِنْ مَكَّنَّاكُمْ فٖیهِ وَجَعَلْنَا لَهُمْ سَمْعًا وَاَبْصَارًا وَاَفْــِٔدَةًؗ فَمَٓا اَغْنٰى عَنْهُمْ سَمْعُهُمْ وَلَٓا اَبْصَارُهُمْ وَلَٓا اَفْــِٔدَتُهُمْ مِنْ شَیْءٍ اِذْ كَانُوا یَجْحَدُونَ بِاٰیَاتِ اللّٰهِ وَحَاقَ بِهِمْ مَا كَانُوا بِهٖ یَسْتَهْزِؤُ𐻿نَࣖ

Walaqad makkannahum feema in makkannakum feehi wajaAAalna lahum samAAan waabsaran waafidatan fama aghna AAanhum samAAuhum wala absaruhum wala afidatuhum min shayin ith kanoo yajhadoona biayati Allahi wahaqa bihim ma kanoo bihi yastahzioona

Translations

And We had certainly established them in such as We have not established you, and We made for them hearing and vision and hearts. But their hearing and vision and hearts availed them not from anything [of the punishment] when they were [continually] rejecting the signs of Allah; and they were enveloped by what they used to ridicule

Saheeh International

And verily We had empowered them with that wherewith We have not empowered you, and had assigned them ears and eyes and hearts; but their ears and eyes and hearts availed them naught since they denied the revelations of Allah; and what they used to mock befell them
