Al-Baqarah

وَإِذَا لَقُواْ ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ قَالُوٓاْ ءَامَنَّا وَإِذَا خَلَوۡاْ إِلَىٰ شَيَٰطِينِهِمۡ قَالُوٓاْ إِنَّا مَعَكُمۡ إِنَّمَا نَحۡنُ مُسۡتَهۡزِءُونَ

14

And when they meet the believers, they say: “We believe.” And when they are alone with their Shayatin (i.e. hypocrites), they say (in privacy): “We are, indeed, with you. We were only mocking (at the believers).”
