يَـٰبَنِىٓ إِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ ٱذْكُرُوا۟ نِعْمَتِىَ ٱلَّتِىٓ أَنْعَمْتُ عَلَيْكُمْ وَأَنِّى فَضَّلْتُكُمْ عَلَى ٱلْعَـٰلَمِينَ
Y a banee isr a eela o th kuroo niAAmatiya allatee anAAamtu AAalaykum waannee fa dd altukum AAal a alAA a lameen a
O children of Israel! Remember those blessings of Mine with which I graced you, and how I favoured you above all other people;
  - Mohammad Asad
O' Children of Israel! Remember the special favor which I bestowed upon You; that I exalted you above all other nations.
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
O Children of Israel! Remember 'all' the favours I granted you and how I honoured you above the others.1
  - Mustafa Khattab

 Meaning, I chose you above all peoples of your time.

O Children of Israel! Remember My favor wherewith I favored you and how I preferred you to (all) creatures.
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
O children of Israel! call to mind the (special) favor which I bestowed upon You and that I preferred you to all others (for My message). 62
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali

These words are recapitulated from ii. 40, which introduced a general account of God's favours to Israel; now we are introduced to a particular account of incidents in Israel's history. Each incident is introduced by the Arabic word "Iz", which is indicated in the translation by "Remember".
