Translation

Whether you reveal a thing or conceal it, indeed Allah is ever, of all things, Knowing.

Verse interpretation (Tafsir)

If you reveal any of your actions or keep them to yourselves secretly, none of them are hidden to Allah anyway. Indeed, Allah knows everything none of your actions or anything else is hidden from Him, and He will requite you for your deeds: if good then with good, and if evil then with bad.
