وَلَقَدْ نَصَرَكُمُ ٱللَّهُ بِبَدْرٍ وَأَنتُمْ أَذِلَّةٌ ۖ فَٱتَّقُوا۟ ٱللَّهَ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُونَ
Walaqad na s arakumu All a hu bibadrin waantum a th illatun fa i ttaqoo All a ha laAAallakum tashkuroon a
for, indeed, God did succour you at Badr, when you were utterly weak.92 Remain, then, conscious of God, so that you might have cause to be grateful.
  - Mohammad Asad

A reference to the battle of Badr, in 2 H., which is dealt with extensively in surah {8}.

Allah helped you at the battle of Badr when you were helpless. Therefore, have fear of Allah; perhaps you may become thankful.
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
Indeed, Allah made you victorious at Badr when you were 'vastly' outnumbered. So be mindful of Allah, perhaps you will be grateful.
  - Mustafa Khattab
Allah had already given you the victory at Badr, when ye were contemptible. So observe your duty to Allah in order that ye may be thankful.
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
Allah had helped you at Badr when ye were a contemptible little force; then fear Allah; thus may ye show your gratitude. 444
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali

Gratitude to Allah is not to be measured by words. It should show itself in conduct and life. If all the Muslims had learnt the true lesson from the victory at Badr, their archers would not have left the posts appointed for them, nor the two tribes mentioned in the last note ever wavered in their faith.
