Without diacritics

وان كنتم على سفر ولم تجدوا كاتبا فرهان مقبوضة فان امن بعضكم بعضا فليؤد الذي اؤتمن امانته وليتق الله ربه ولا تكتموا الشهادة ومن يكتمها فانه اثم قلبه والله بما تعملون عليم

If ye are on a journey, And cannot find A scribe, a pledge With possession (may serve The purpose). And if one of you Deposits a thing On trust with another, Let the trustee (Faithfully) discharge His trust, and let him Fear his Lord. Conceal not evidence; For whoever conceals it,— His heart is tainted With sin. And God Knoweth all that ye do.
