فَاتَكُمْ
وَلَا

بِمَا
آتَاكُمْ
وَاللَّهُ

In order that ye may not despair over matters that pass you by, nor exult over favours bestowed upon you. For Allah loveth not any vainglorious boaster,-
— Abdullah Yusufali
so that you may not grieve for what escapes you, nor boast for what comes your way, and Allah does not like any swaggering braggart.
