Verse 6

أَسْكِنُوهُنَّ Lodge them مِنْ from حَيْثُ where سَكَنتُم you dwell مِّن (out) of وُجْدِكُمْ your means وَلَا and (do) not تُضَآرُّوهُنَّ harm them لِتُضَيِّقُوا۟ to distress عَلَيْهِنَّ ۚ [on] them وَإِن And if كُنَّ they are أُو۟لَـٰتِ those (who are) حَمْلٍۢ pregnant فَأَنفِقُوا۟ then spend عَلَيْهِنَّ on them حَتَّىٰ until يَضَعْنَ they deliver حَمْلَهُنَّ ۚ their burden فَإِنْ Then if أَرْضَعْنَ they suckle لَكُمْ for you فَـَٔاتُوهُنَّ then give them أُجُورَهُنَّ ۖ their payment وَأْتَمِرُوا۟ and consult بَيْنَكُم among yourselves بِمَعْرُوفٍۢ ۖ with kindness وَإِن but if تَعَاسَرْتُمْ you disagree فَسَتُرْضِعُ then may suckle لَهُۥٓ for him أُخْرَىٰ another (women) ٦

Lodge them [in a section] of where you dwell out of your means and do not harm them in order to oppress them. And if they should be pregnant, then spend on them until they give birth. And if they breastfeed for you, then give them their payment and confer among yourselves in the acceptable way; but if you are in discord, then there may breastfeed for him [i.e., the father] another woman.
