Ali 'Imran 118

يَٓا اَيُّهَا الَّذ۪ينَ اٰمَنُوا لَا تَتَّخِذُوا بِطَانَةً مِنْ دُونِكُمْ لَا يَاْلُونَكُمْ خَبَالًاۜ وَدُّوا مَا عَنِتُّمْۚ قَدْ بَدَتِ الْبَغْضَٓاءُ مِنْ اَفْوَاهِهِمْۚ وَمَا تُخْف۪ي صُدُورُهُمْ اَكْبَرُۜ قَدْ بَيَّنَّا لَكُمُ الْاٰيَاتِ اِنْ كُنْتُمْ تَعْقِلُونَ ۝١١٨

118O you who believe, do not take as friends and confidants those who do not share your religion. For they will do you every harm they can. They wish for you to fall into hardship. Their hatred and anger overflow from their mouths. And the hatred and loathing they conceal within is even greater. We have made the verses clear to you, if you use your reason.
