And how they say that which they do not ?
And that they say what they practise not? -
Außer denjenigen, die glauben, rechtschaffene Werke tun und Allahs häufig gedenken und sich (erst) selbst helfen, nachdem ihnen ja Unrecht zugefügt wurde. Und diejenigen, die Unrecht tun, werden erfahren, was für eine Rückkehr sie haben werden.
Except those [poets] who believe and do righteous deeds and remember Allah often and defend [the Muslims] after they were wronged. And those who have wronged are going to know to what [kind of] return they will be returned.
Save those who believe and do good works, and remember Allah much, and vindicate themselves after they have been wronged. Those who do wrong will come to know by what a (great) reverse they will be overturned!
Except those who believe, work righteousness, engage much in the remembrance of Allah, and defend themselves only after they are unjustly attacked. And soon will the unjust assailants know what vicissitudes their affairs will take!
