ٱلْفَتْح : ١٢

  • بَلۡ Nay
  • ظَنَنتُمۡ you thought
  • أَن that
  • لَّن (would) never
  • يَنقَلِبَ return
  • ٱلرَّسُولُ the Messenger
  • وَٱلۡمُؤۡمِنُونَ and the believers
  • إِلَىٰٓ to
  • أَهۡلِيهِمۡ their families
  • أَبَدٗا ever
  • وَزُيِّنَ that was made fair-seeming
  • ذَٰلِكَ that was made fair-seeming
  • فِي in
  • قُلُوبِكُمۡ your hearts
  • وَظَنَنتُمۡ And you assumed
  • ظَنَّ an assumption
  • ٱلسَّوۡءِ evil
  • وَكُنتُمۡ and you became
  • قَوۡمَۢا a people
  • بُورٗا ruined
But you thought that the Messenger and the believers would never return to their families, ever, and that was made pleasing in your hearts. And you assumed an assumption of evil and became a people ruined."
Nay (bal in both instances marks a transition from one subject to another), but you thought that the Messenger and the believers would never return to their families, and that [thought] was adorned in your hearts, that is to say, [you thought] that they would be annihilated by being slain and would not return, and you thought evil thoughts, that [just mentioned], and other things, and you were a ruined lot' (boor is the plural of baa'ir), in other words, [a lot to be] destroyed according to God for [having entertained] such [evil] thoughts.
