And even if We gave them mercy and removed what was upon them of affliction, they would persist in their transgression, wandering blindly.
The Saheeh International Quran Translation
وَلَوْ رَحِمْنَٰهُمْ وَكَشَفْنَا مَا بِهِم مِّن ضُرٍّ لَّلَجُّوا۟ فِى طُغْيَٰنِهِمْ يَعْمَهُونَAnd even if We gave them mercy and removed what was upon them of affliction, they would persist in their transgression, wandering blindly.
