16:83

يَعْرِفُونَ نِعْمَتَ ٱللَّهِ ثُمَّ يُنكِرُونَهَا وَأَكْثَرُهُمُ ٱلْكَـٰفِرُونَ

yaʿrifūna niʿ'mata l-lahi thumma yunkirūnahā wa-aktharuhumu l-kāfirūna

They recognize the favor of Allāh; then they deny it. And most of them are disbelievers.

— Saheeh International

They know God’s blessings, but refuse to recognize them: most of them are ungrateful.

— M. A. S. Abdel Haleem

They recognise the Grace of Allâh, yet they deny it (by worshipping others besides Allâh) and most of them are disbelievers (deny the Prophethood of Muhammad صلى الله عليه و سلم).

— Muhammad Muhsin Khan & Muhammad Taqi-ud-Din al-Hilali
