الشيطان يعدكم الفقر ويامركم بالفحشاء والله يعدكم مغفرة منه وفضلا والله واسع عليم ٢٦٨
ٱلشَّيْطَـٰنُ يَعِدُكُمُ ٱلْفَقْرَ وَيَأْمُرُكُم بِٱلْفَحْشَآءِ ۖ وَٱللَّهُ يَعِدُكُم مَّغْفِرَةًۭ مِّنْهُ وَفَضْلًۭا ۗ وَٱللَّهُ وَٰسِعٌ عَلِيمٌۭ ٢٦٨

The Devil threatens you with ˹the prospect of˺ poverty and bids you to the shameful deed ˹of stinginess˺, while Allah promises you forgiveness and ˹great˺ bounties from Him. And Allah is All-Bountiful, All-Knowing.

Explanation

These readings are linguistic options and are identical in their meaning. (NB: a third option transmitted from al-Dūrī, from Abū ʿAmr, has an overshort vowel (ikhtilās), a medium option between the other two.)

He has revealed to you ˹O Prophet˺ the Book in truth, confirming what came before it, as He revealed the Torah and the Gospel
