وَالَّذ۪ينَ كَفَرُٓوا اَعْمَالُهُمْ كَسَرَابٍ بِق۪يعَةٍ يَحْسَبُهُ الظَّمْاٰنُ مَٓاءًۜ حَتّٰٓى اِذَا جَٓاءَهُ لَمْ يَجِدْهُ شَيْـًٔا وَوَجَدَ اللّٰهَ عِنْدَهُ فَوَفّٰيهُ حِسَابَهُۜ وَاللّٰهُ سَر۪يعُ الْحِسَابِۙ ٣٩

English Translation
39As for the disbelievers who cover up the truth, their good deeds are like a mirage in the desert: the one parched with thirst thinks it is water, but when he reaches it he finds nothing; he finds only Allah there beside him, and He settles his account in full. For Allah is swift in reckoning.
