29* Make not thy hand tied (like a niggard's) to thy neck, nor stretch it forth to its utmost reach, so that thou become blameworthy and destitute.  
| |30* Verily thy Lord doth provide sustenance in abundance for whom He pleaseth, and He straiten it. For He doth know and regard all His servants.  
| |31* Kill not your children for fear of want: We shall provide sustenance for them as well as for you. Verily the killing of them is a great sin.  
| |32* Nor come nigh to adultery: for it is an indecent (deed) and an evil way.  
| |33* Nor take life - which Allah has made sacred - except for just cause. And if anyone is slain wrongfully, we have given his heir authority (to demand Qiss or to forgive): but let him nor exceed bounds in the matter of taking life; for he is helped (by the Law).  
| |34* Come not nigh to the orphan's property except to improve it, until he attains the age of full strength; and fulfill (every) engagement, for (every) engagement will be inquired into (on the Day of Reckoning).  
| |35* Give full measure when ye measure, and weigh with a balance that is straight: that is the most fitting and the most advantageous in the final determination.  
| |36* And pursue not that of which thou hast no knowledge; for surely the hearing, the sight, the heart, all of those shall be questioned of (on the Day of Reckoning).  
| |37* Nor walk on the earth with insolence: for thou canst not rend the earth asunder, nor reach the mountains in height.  
| |38* Of all such things the evil is hateful in the sight of thy Lord.
