How judge you? 36 Is there with you a Book wherein ye study: 37 That indeed for you is whatever you choose? 38 Or have ye a covenant on oath from Us that reacheth to the Day of Judgment, that yours shall be all that ye ordain? 39 Ask them, who among them is a guarantor for it? 40 Or have they, perchance, any sages to support their views?
