وَلَا تُطِعۡ كُلَّ حَلَّافٖ مَّهِينٍ

Heed not the type of despicable men,- ready with oaths,


هَمَّازٖ مَّشَّآءِۭ بِنَمِيمٖ

A slanderer, going about with calumnies,


مَّنَّاعٖ لِّلۡخَيۡرِ مُعۡتَدٍ أَثِيمٍ

(Habitually) hindering (all) good, transgressing beyond bounds, deep in sin,


عُتُلِّۭ بَعۡدَ ذَٰلِكَ زَنِيمٍ

Violent (and cruel),- with all that, base-born,-


أَن كَانَ ذَا مَالٖ وَبَنِينَ

Because he possesses wealth and (numerous) sons.


إِذَا تُتۡلَىٰ عَلَيۡهِ ءَايَٰتُنَا قَالَ أَسَٰطِيرُ ٱلۡأَوَّلِينَ

When to him are rehearsed Our Signs, "Tales of the ancients", he cries!


سَنَسِمُهُۥ عَلَى ٱلۡخُرۡطُومِ

Soon shall We brand (the beast) on the snout!


إِنَّا بَلَوۡنَٰهُمۡ كَمَا بَلَوۡنَآ أَصۡحَٰبَ ٱلۡجَنَّةِ إِذۡ أَقۡسَمُواْ لَيَصۡرِمُنَّهَا مُصۡبِحِينَ

Verily We have tried them as We tried the People of the Garden, when they resolved to gather the fruits of the (garden) in the morning.


وَلَا يَسۡتَثۡنُونَ

But made no reservation, ("If it be Allah's Will").
