In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. Woe unto the defrauders:
দুর্ভোগ তাহাদের জন্য যাহারা মাপে কম দেয়,
Woe to those that deal in fraud, -
Who, when they take the measure (of their dues) from men take it fully,
Those who when they take the measure from mankind demand it full,
যাহারা লোকের নিকট হইতে মাপিয়া লইবার সময় পূর্ণমাত্রায় গ্রহণ করে,
Those who, when they have to receive by measure from men, exact full measure,
But when they measure out to others or weigh out for them, they are deficient.
But if they measure unto them or weight for them, they cause them loss.
এবং যখন তাহাদের জন্য মাপিয়া অথবা ওজন করিয়া দেয়, তখন কম দেয়।
But when they have to give by measure or weight to men, give less than due.
