Koran 40:83 — soera Ghafir, vers 83

فَلَمَّا جَآءَتۡهُمۡ رُسُلُهُم بِٱلۡبَيِّنَٰتِ فَرِحُواْ بِمَا عِندَهُم مِّنَ ٱلۡعِلۡمِ وَحَاقَ بِهِم مَّا كَانُواْ بِهِۦ يَسۡتَهۡزِءُونَ

Toen hun boodschappers met duidelijke bewijzen tot hen kwamen waren zij blij met datgene wat zij hadden aan kennis en met datgene wat zij gewoonlijk bespotten werden zij mee omsingeld.

And when their messengers came to them with clear proofs, they [merely] rejoiced in what they had of knowledge, but they were enveloped by what they used to ridicule
