The Factions Differed
فَٱخۡتَلَفَ ٱلۡأَحۡزَابُ مِنۢ بَيۡنِهِمۡۖ فَوَيۡلࣱ لِّلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُواْ مِنۡ عَذَابِ يَوۡمٍ أَلِيمٍ ٦٥
But the factions among them differed. Then woe unto those who do wrong from the doom of a painful day.
Translation: Marmaduke Pickthall
Meaning
But the factions differed from among them.
