And if
walaw
We willed
shi'nā
surely We (could) have raised him
larafaʿnāhu
with these
bihā
[and] but he
walākinnahu
adhered
akhlada
to
ilā
the earth
l-arḍi
and followed
wa-ittabaʿa
his (vain) desires
hawāhu
So his example
famathaluhu
(is) like (the) example
kamathali
(of) the dog
l-kalbi
if
in
you attack
taḥmil
[on] him
ʿalayhi
he lolls out his tongue
yalhath
or
aw
if you leave him
tatruk'hu
he lolls out his tongue
yalhath
That
dhālika
(is the) example
mathalu
(of) the people
l-qawmi
who
alladhīna
denied
kadhabū
[in] Our Signs
biāyātinā
So relate
fa-uq'ṣuṣi
the story
l-qaṣaṣa
so that they may
laʿallahum
reflect
yatafakkarūna
