Al-Jalalayn Commentary

You are vindictive spiteful towards us only because we have believed in the signs of our Lord when they came to us. Our Lord pour out onto us patience and constancy when that with which he has threatened us comes to pass lest we revert to unbelief; and take us to You as men who have submitted’.

(Thou takest vengeance on us) you are censuring and punishing us (only forasmuch as we believed the tokens of our Lord when they came unto us. Our Lord! Vouchsafe unto us steadfastness) honour us with steadfastness when we are crucified and mutilated and make it that we do not return to disbelief (and make us die as men who have surrendered (unto Thee)) sincerely, following the religion of Moses.
