انظُرْ
كَيْفَ
ضَرَبُوا
لَكَ
الْأَمْثَالَ
فَضَلُّوا
فَلَا
يَسْتَطِيعُونَ
سَبِيلًا
unẓur kayfa ḍarabū laka l-ʾamthāla fa-ḍallū fa-lā yastaṭīʿūna sabīlan
See what similes they strike for thee: but they have gone astray, and never can they find a way.
— Abdullah Yusufali
Look, how they coin epithets for you; so they go astray, and cannot find a way.
