  • قَالَتۡ She said
  • إِنَّ Indeed
  • ٱلۡمُلُوكَ the kings
  • إِذَا when
  • دَخَلُواْ they enter
  • قَرۡيَةً a town
  • أَفۡسَدُوهَا they ruin it
  • وَجَعَلُوٓاْ and make
  • أَعِزَّةَ (the) most honorable
  • أَهۡلِهَآ (of) its people
  • أَذِلَّةٗۚ (the) lowest
  • وَكَذَٰلِكَ And thus
  • يَفۡعَلُونَ they do
