Arabic text of ayah

Qul araaytum in ahlakaniya Allahu wa man ma'iya aw rahimana fa man yujiru al-kafirina min 'adhabin alimin

Say: Do you see, if Allah were to destroy me and who is with me, or if He is merciful, then who will deliver the rejectors from a painful punishment

The following is an excerpt of commentary on this ayah, from Tafsir Ibn Kathir:

Meaning, 'save yourselves, for verily, there is nothing that can rescue you from Allah except repentance, turning to Him for forgiveness and returning to His religion. Your hopes that torment and exemplary punishment will strike us, will not benefit you. Whether Allah punishes us or has mercy on us, there is no escaping from Allah's punishment and painful torment that you will suffer'
