Was *which* the verse?? The Koran is in Arabic, actually, which I don't speak, so I was just appreciating the music of the recitation. Any religion that can come up with something that extaordinarily beautiful has to have something going for it. However, what you quote is a hadith; it's not from the Koran. And while much has been made on right-wing Web sites of this hadith, moderate Muslims interpret it to refer not to Jews generally but rather to specific Jews who have committed violent acts against Muslims.
