وَأَذَٰنٌۭ And an announcement مِّنَ from Allah ٱللَّهِ from Allah وَرَسُولِهِۦٓ and His Messenger إِلَى to ٱلنَّاسِ the people يَوْمَ (on the) day ٱلْحَجِّ (of) the greater Pilgrimage ٱلْأَكْبَرِ (of) the greater Pilgrimage أَنَّ that ٱللَّهَ Allah بَرِىٓءٌۭ (is) free from obligations مِّنَ [of] ٱلْمُشْرِكِينَ ۙ (to) the polytheists وَرَسُولُهُۥ ۚ and (so is) His Messenger فَإِن So if تُبْتُمْ you repent فَهُوَ then, it is خَيْرٌۭ best لَّكُمْ ۖ for you وَإِن But if تَوَلَّيْتُمْ you turn away فَٱعْلَمُوٓا۟ then know أَنَّكُمْ that you غَيْرُ (can) not مُعْجِزِى escape ٱللَّهِ ۗ Allah وَبَشِّرِ And give glad tidings ٱلَّذِينَ (to) those who كَفَرُوا۟ disbelieve بِعَذَابٍ of a punishment أَلِيمٍ painful ٣

And [it is] an announcement from Allāh and His Messenger to the people on the day of the greater pilgrimage that Allāh is disassociated from the disbelievers, and [so is] His Messenger. So if you repent, that is best for you; but if you turn away - then know that you will not cause failure to Allāh. And give tidings to those who disbelieve of a painful punishment.
