وَإِذْ And when wa-idh took akhadha Allah l-lahu a Covenant mīthāqa (from) those who alladhīna were given ūtū the Book l-kitāba You certainly make it clear latubayyinunnahu to the mankind lilnnāsi and (do) not walā conceal it taktumūnahu Then they threw it fanabadhūhu behind warāa their backs ẓuhūrihim and they exchanged wa-ish'taraw [with] it bihi (for) a price thamanan little qalīlan And wretched fabi'sa (is) what mā they purchase yashtarūna
And [mention, O Muḥammad], when Allāh took a covenant from those who were given the Scripture, [saying], "You must make it clear [i.e., explain it] to the people and not conceal it." But they threw it away behind their backs and exchanged it for a small price. And wretched is that which they purchased.
