ٱلَّذِينَ (To) those whom ءَاتَيْنَـٰهُمُ We gave [them] ٱلْكِتَـٰبَ the Book يَعْرِفُونَهُۥ they recognize it كَمَا like يَعْرِفُونَ they recognize أَبْنَآءَهُمْ ۖ their sons وَإِنَّ And indeed فَرِيقًۭا a group مِّنْهُمْ of them لَيَكْتُمُونَ surely they conceal ٱلْحَقَّ the Truth وَهُمْ while they يَعْلَمُونَ know ١٤٦

Those to whom We gave the Scripture know him [i.e., Prophet Muḥammad (ﷺ)] as they know their own sons. But indeed, a party of them conceal the truth while they know [it].
