فَٱصْبِرْ لِحُكْمِ رَبِّكَ وَلَا تُطِعْ مِنْهُمْ ءَاثِمًا أَوْ كَفُورًا
Fasbir lihukmi Rabbika wa laa tuti' minhum aasiman aw kafooraa
Bądź więc cierpliwy do rozstrzygnięcia twego Pana! Nie słuchaj ni grzesznika, ni niewdzięcznego spośród nich!
So be patient for your Lord's decree, and do not obey any sinner or ungrateful one among them.
Kafūr, the ungrateful one, is the intensive form the surah used at 76:3, where the human being is guided and left to be grateful or ungrateful; near its close the same word describes someone the Prophet is told not to obey. Grammarians paused over the aw joining the two descriptions, since in a prohibition it forbids yielding to either one on his own, leaving no single concession open. Early reports attached the pair to Meccan leaders who had offered terms.
