Overall meaning : Woe betide the defrauders who cheat people of their rights through the use of dishonest weights and measures—those who, when they buy from other people, demand their due in full; but when they measure or weigh things for others, they give them less than their due. Do such defrauders not know that they will be raised to life and be called to account on the great Day of Judgement—the Day when all mankind will stand before the Lord of all the worlds?!
