ثُمَّ لَنَحْنُ أَعْلَمُ بِٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ أَوْلَىٰ بِهَا صِلِيًّا
Thumma lana h nu aAAlamu bi a lla th eena hum awl a bih a s iliyy a n
for, indeed, We know best as to which of them is most deserving of the fires of hell.54
  - Mohammad Asad

Lit., "of burning therein": an allusion to the fact that not every one of the sinners will be irrevocably consigned to the suffering described in the Qur'an as hell. (The particle thumma which introduces this clause has here the function of an explanatory conjunction with the preceding statement and is, therefore, best rendered as "for".)

Certainly We know best who deserves most to be burned therein.
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
And We truly know best who is most deserving of burning in it.
  - Mustafa Khattab
And surely We are best aware of those most worthy to be burned therein.
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
And certainly We know best those who are most worthy of being burned therein.
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali
