And Allah would turn to you in mercy; but those who follow vain desires would have you go tremendously astray.

Allah doth wish to Turn to you, but the wish of those who follow their lusts is that ye should turn away (from Him),- far, far away.

وله : ( [ والله يريد أن يتوب عليكم ] ويريد الذين يتبعون الشهوات أن تميلوا ميلا عظيما ) أي : يريد أتباع الشياطين من اليهود والنصارى والزناة ( أن تميلوا ) يعني : عن الحق إلى الباطل ( ميلا عظيما )
