وَلَا And (do) not تَكُونُوا۟ be كَٱلَّتِى like her who نَقَضَتْ untwists غَزْلَهَا her spun yarn مِنۢ after بَعْدِ after قُوَّةٍ strength أَنكَـٰثًۭا (into) untwisted strands تَتَّخِذُونَ you take أَيْمَـٰنَكُمْ your oaths دَخَلًۢا (as) a deception بَيْنَكُمْ between you أَن because تَكُونَ is أُمَّةٌ a community هِىَ [it] أَرْبَىٰ more numerous مِنْ than أُمَّةٍ ۚ (another) community إِنَّمَا Only يَبْلُوكُمُ Allah tests you ٱللَّهُ Allah tests you بِهِۦ ۚ by it وَلَيُبَيِّنَنَّ And He will make clear لَكُمْ to you يَوْمَ (on) the Day ٱلْقِيَـٰمَةِ (of) the Resurrection مَا what كُنتُمْ you used (to) فِيهِ in it تَخْتَلِفُونَ differ ٩٢

And do not be like she who untwisted her spun thread after it was strong [by] taking your oaths as [means of] deceit between you because one community is more plentiful [in number or wealth] than another community. Allāh only tries you thereby. And He will surely make clear to you on the Day of Resurrection that over which you used to differ.
