The Holy Quran 5:62 — Surah Al-Ma'idah

Arabic text

وَتَرَىٰ كَثِيرًا مِّنْهُمْ يُسَـٰرِعُونَ فِى ٱلْإِثْمِ وَٱلْعُدْوَٰنِ وَأَكْلِهِمُ ٱلسُّحْتَ ۚ لَبِئْسَ مَا كَانُوا۟ يَعْمَلُونَ

Translation

You will see most of them (the Jews) rush into sin, transgression (violating Allaah's laws) and devouring the unlawful (doing that which is Haraam, especially dealing with interest). Evil indeed is that which they do.

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

Probably by اثم (“sin”) are meant sins [whose harm] is confined to the person himself, and by عدوان (“transgression”) sins that pass on to others. That is, the state of these people is that they pounce with great eagerness and zeal upon every kind of sin, whether its effect is limited to themselves or reaches others.
