لَتَجِدَنَّ اَشَدَّ النَّاسِ عَدَاوَةً لِلَّذٖینَ اٰمَنُوا الْیَهُودَ وَالَّذٖینَ اَشْرَكُواۚ وَلَتَجِدَنَّ اَقْرَبَهُمْ مَوَدَّةً لِلَّذٖینَ اٰمَنُوا الَّذٖینَ قَالُٓوا اِنَّا نَصَارٰىؕ ذٰلِكَ بِاَنَّ مِنْهُمْ قِسّٖیسٖینَ وَرُهْبَانًا وَاَنَّهُمْ لَا یَسْتَكْبِرُونَ

Translations

You will surely find the most intense of the people in animosity toward the believers [to be] the Jews and those who associate others with Allah; and you will find the nearest of them in affection to the believers those who say, "We are Christians." That is because among them are priests and monks and because they are not arrogant

Saheeh International

Thou wilt find the most vehement of mankind in hostility to those who believe (to be) the Jews and the idolaters. And thou wilt find the nearest of them in affection to those who believe (to be) those who say: Lo! We are Christians. That is because there are among them priests and monks, and because they are not proud
