وَإِذَا دُعُوٓا۟ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِۦ لِيَحْكُمَ بَيْنَهُمْ إِذَا فَرِيقٌ مِّنْهُم مُّعْرِضُونَ

And [so it is that] whenever they are summoned unto God and His Apostle in order that [the divine writ] might judge between them,65 lo! some of them turn away;
  - Mohammad Asad

I.e., in order that the divine writ - which is implied in the preceding expression "God and His Apostle" - might determine their ethical values and, consequently, their social behaviour.

When such people are called to Allah and His Rasool that He may judge between them, behold! A party of them decline to come.
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
And as soon as they are called to Allah and His Messenger so he may judge between them, a group of them1 turns away.
  - Mustafa Khattab

 Those at fault.

And when they appeal unto Allah and His messenger to judge between them, lo! a faction of them are averse;
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
When they are summoned to Allah and His Apostle in order that He may judge between them behold some of them decline (to come).
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali
