كَيْفَ وَاِنْ يَظْهَرُوا عَلَيْكُمْ لَا يَرْقُبُوا ف۪يكُمْ اِلًّا وَلَا ذِمَّةًۜ يُرْضُونَكُمْ بِاَفْوَاهِهِمْ وَتَاْبٰى قُلُوبُهُمْۚ وَاَكْثَرُهُمْ فَاسِقُونَۚ ٨

English Translation
8How can their treaties have any value, when, had they gained the upper hand over you, they would have kept faith neither with the oaths they swore nor with the pact/treaty they made? While they try to please you with their tongues, inwardly they are nursing a grudge against you; and indeed most of them are transgressors who have strayed from the path.
