Where are they being diverted? 69 Those who reject the Book and the (revelations) with which We sent our messengers: but soon shall they know,- 70 when, with iron collars and chains around their necks, they are dragged 71 into boiling water and then they will be burned in the fire. 72 It will then be said to them, “Where are the partners you used to appoint?” – 73 side by side with God?" They will answer: "They have forsaken us - or, rather, what we were wont to invoke aforetime did not exist at all!" And they will be told:] "It is thus that God lets the deniers of the truth go astray: 74 (They will be told): “This is because while you were on earth you took delight in untruth and exulted in it. 75 Enter the gates of hell to live therein forever.
