Explanatory translation

45I am granting them respite until the term I have set runs out, so that they may come to their senses and turn to what is right. Certainly, against the traps they set, My plan is far firmer and My punishment far more severe, and no one can prevent it. We have given them a set period in the world. For now, let them live as they please and go on setting traps for those who believe in Allah. They have no idea! It is We who are setting the real trap for them. Although they deny Our verses, they suppose themselves to be on the right path, and they keep increasing their transgression and multiplying the offenses they commit. But no one can escape the reckoning.
