بَلۡ نَحۡنُ مَحۡرُومُونَ

Bal nahnu mahroomoona

"Indeed we are shut out (of the fruits of our labour)!"

قَالَ أَوۡسَطُهُمۡ أَلَمۡ أَقُل لَّكُمۡ لَوۡلَا تُسَبِّحُونَ

Qala awsatuhum alam aqul lakum lawla tusabbihoona

Said one of them, more just (than the rest): "Did I not say to you, ´Why not glorify (Allah)?´"

قَالُواْ سُبۡحَٰنَ رَبِّنَآ إِنَّا كُنَّا ظَٰلِمِينَ

Qaloo subhana rabbina inna kunna thalimeena

They said: "Glory to our Lord! Verily we have been doing wrong!"
