Text Uthmani:

يَدۡعُواْ لَمَن ضَرُّهُۥٓ أَقۡرَبُ مِن نَّفۡعِهِۦۚ لَبِئۡسَ ٱلۡمَوۡلَىٰ وَلَبِئۡسَ ٱلۡعَشِيرُ ١٣

Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran:

They invoke those whose worship leads to harm, not benefit. What an evil patron and what an evil associate!

Muhammad Taqi-ud-Din al-Hilali & Muhammad Muhsin Khan:

He calls unto him whose harm is nearer than his profit: certainly, an evil Maulâ (patron) and certainly an evil friend!
