وَلْیَخْشَ الَّذٖینَ لَوْ تَرَكُوا مِنْ خَلْفِهِمْ ذُرِّیَّةً ضِعَافًا خَافُوا عَلَیْهِمْࣕ فَلْیَتَّقُوا اللّٰهَ وَلْیَقُولُوا قَوْلًا سَدٖیدًا

Walyakhsha allatheena law tarakoo min khalfihim thurriyyatan diAAafan khafoo AAalayhim falyattaqoo Allaha walyaqooloo qawlan sadeedan

Translations

And let those [executors and guardians] fear [injustice] as if they [themselves] had left weak offspring behind and feared for them. So let them fear Allah and speak words of appropriate justice

Saheeh International

And let those fear (in their behaviour toward orphans) who if they left behind them weak offspring would be afraid for them. So let them mind their duty to Allah, and speak justly
