From a fully vowelled text
الْقَرِيبَةُ إِلَيْكِ وَالْبَعِيدَةُ عَنْكِ يَسْخَرُونَ مِنْكِ، يَا نَجِسَةَ الاسْمِ، يَا كَثِيرَةَ الشَّغَبِ.Those that be near, and those that be far from thee, shall mock thee, which art infamous and much vexed.Ezekiel 22:5, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
وَكَانَ الشَّعْبُ وَاقِفِينَ يَنْظُرُونَ، وَالرُّؤَسَاءُ أَيْضًا مَعَهُمْ يَسْخَرُونَ بِهِ قَائِلِينَ: «خَلَّصَ آخَرِينَ، فَلْيُخَلِّصْ نَفْسَهُ إِنْ كَانَ هُوَ الْمَسِيحَ مُخْتَارَ اللهِ!».And the people stood beholding. And the rulers also with them derided him, saying, He saved others; let him save himself, if he be Christ, the chosen of God.Luke 23:35, Smith & Van Dyke (1865) / KJV
