لَقَدۡ كَفَرَ الَّذِيۡنَ قَالُوۡۤا اِنَّ اللّٰهَ هُوَ الۡمَسِيۡحُ ابۡنُ مَرۡيَمَ‌ ؕ وَقَالَ الۡمَسِيۡحُ يٰبَنِىۡۤ اِسۡرَآءِيۡلَ اعۡبُدُوا اللّٰهَ رَبِّىۡ وَرَبَّكُمۡ‌ ؕ اِنَّهٗ مَنۡ يُّشۡرِكۡ بِاللّٰهِ فَقَدۡ حَرَّمَ اللّٰهُ عَلَيۡهِ الۡجَـنَّةَ وَمَاۡوٰٮهُ النَّارُ‌ ؕ وَمَا لِلظّٰلِمِيۡنَ مِنۡ اَنۡصَارٍ

Most certainly those who disbelieved had said, “Surely Allah                                    He is the Messiah son of Mary.”

And the Messiah said, “ Listen the sons of Israel!                                              Worship Allah, my God and your God.                                                                                Anyone who sets up partners with Allah                                                                              Then knows that Allah surely has prohibited to him the paradise.                          And the fire is his abode.”                           

And none among helpers are for the wrongdoers.

The emphasis repeated four times in one verse shows the significance of its message. Accurately translating this verse requires that the said significance is also repeated

A reader of English literature may find such repetition a bit unusual. But the importance of the message emphasized four times in one verse merits that it must be conveyed.
