وَءَاتُوا۟ And give waātū (to) the orphans l-yatāmā their wealth amwālahum and (do) not walā exchange tatabaddalū the bad l-khabītha with the good bil-ṭayibi and (do) not walā consume takulū their wealth amwālahum with ilā your wealth amwālikum Indeed, it innahu is kāna a sin ḥūban great kabīran
And give to the orphans their properties and do not substitute the defective [of your own] for the good [of theirs]. And do not consume their properties into your own. Indeed, that is ever a great sin.

And if you fear that you will not deal justly with the orphan girls, then marry those that please you of [other] women, two or three or four. But if you fear that you will not be just, then [marry only] one or those your right hands possess [i.e., slaves]. That is more suitable that you may not incline [to injustice].

And give the women [upon marriage] their [bridal] gifts graciously. But if they give up willingly to you anything of it, then take it in satisfaction and ease.
