۞ وَمِنْ And from أَهْلِ (the) People ٱلْكِتَـٰبِ (of) the Book مَنْ (is he) who إِن if تَأْمَنْهُ you entrust him بِقِنطَارٍۢ with a great amount of wealth يُؤَدِّهِۦٓ he will return it إِلَيْكَ to you وَمِنْهُم And from them مَّنْ (is he) who إِن if تَأْمَنْهُ you entrust him بِدِينَارٍۢ with a single coin لَّا not يُؤَدِّهِۦٓ he will return it إِلَيْكَ to you إِلَّا except مَا that دُمْتَ you keep constantly عَلَيْهِ over him قَآئِمًۭا ۗ standing ذَٰلِكَ That بِأَنَّهُمْ (is) because they قَالُوا۟ said لَيْسَ Not عَلَيْنَا on us فِى concerning ٱلْأُمِّيِّـۧنَ the unlettered people سَبِيلٌۭ any [way] (accountability) وَيَقُولُونَ And they say عَلَى about ٱللَّهِ Allah ٱلْكَذِبَ the lie وَهُمْ while they يَعْلَمُونَ know ٧٥

And among the People of the Scripture is he who, if you entrust him with a great amount [of wealth], he will return it to you.

That is because they say, "There is no blame upon us concerning the unlearned." And they speak untruth about Allāh while they know [it].
