وَإِذْ And when تَقُولُ you said لِلَّذِىٓ to the one أَنْعَمَ Allah bestowed favor ٱللَّهُ Allah bestowed favor عَلَيْهِ on him وَأَنْعَمْتَ and you bestowed favor عَلَيْهِ on him أَمْسِكْ Keep عَلَيْكَ to yourself زَوْجَكَ your wife وَٱتَّقِ and fear ٱللَّهَ Allah وَتُخْفِى But you concealed فِى within نَفْسِكَ yourself مَا what ٱللَّهُ Allah مُبْدِيهِ (was to) disclose وَتَخْشَى And you fear ٱلنَّاسَ the people وَٱللَّهُ while Allah أَحَقُّ has more right أَن that تَخْشَىٰهُ ۖ you (should) fear Him فَلَمَّا So when قَضَىٰ ended زَيْدٌۭ Zaid مِّنْهَا from her وَطَرًۭا necessary (formalities) زَوَّجْنَـٰكَهَا We married her to you لِكَىْ so that لَا not يَكُونَ there be عَلَى on ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ the believers حَرَجٌۭ any discomfort فِىٓ concerning أَزْوَٰجِ the wives أَدْعِيَآئِهِمْ (of) their adopted sons إِذَا when قَضَوْا۟ they have ended مِنْهُنَّ from them وَطَرًۭا ۚ necessary (formalities) وَكَانَ And is أَمْرُ (the) Command ٱللَّهِ (of) Allah مَفْعُولًۭا accomplished ٣٧
And [remember, O Muḥammad], when you said to the one on whom Allāh bestowed favor and you bestowed favor, "Keep your wife and fear Allāh," while you concealed within yourself that which Allāh is to disclose. And you feared the people, while Allāh has more right that you fear Him. So when Zayd had no longer any need for her, We married her to you in order that there not be upon the believers any discomfort [i.e., guilt] concerning the wives of their claimed [i.e., adopted] sons when they no longer have need of them. And ever is the command [i.e., decree] of Allāh accomplished.
