4:117
إِن يَدْعُونَ مِن دُونِهِۦٓ إِلَّآ إِنَـٰثًۭا وَإِن يَدْعُونَ إِلَّا شَيْطَـٰنًۭا مَّرِيدًۭا ١١٧
They invoke in His stead only females; they pray to none else than Satan, a rebel
They call upon instead of Him none but female [deities], and they [actually] call upon none but a rebellious Satan.
Rather than call upon Him, they call upon goddesses, and call upon a rebellious Satan
