أَوَعَجِبْتُمْ أَن جَآءَكُمْ ذِكْرٌ مِّن رَّبِّكُمْ عَلَىٰ رَجُلٍ مِّنكُمْ لِيُنذِرَكُمْ وَٱذْكُرُوٓا۟ إِذْ جَعَلَكُمْ خُلَفَآءَ مِنۢ بَعْدِ قَوْمِ نُوحٍ وَزَادَكُمْ فِى ٱلْخَلْقِ بَصْۜطَةً فَٱذْكُرُوٓا۟ ءَالَآءَ ٱللَّهِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تُفْلِحُونَ

7:74

وَٱذْكُرُوٓا۟ إِذْ جَعَلَكُمْ خُلَفَآءَ مِنۢ بَعْدِ عَادٍ وَبَوَّأَكُمْ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ تَتَّخِذُونَ مِن سُهُولِهَا قُصُورًا وَتَنْحِتُونَ ٱلْجِبَالَ بُيُوتًا فَٱذْكُرُوٓا۟ ءَالَآءَ ٱللَّهِ وَلَا تَعْثَوْا۟ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ مُفْسِدِينَ

Where other meanings fail

deliberate withholding

55:13

فَبِأَىِّ ءَالَآءِ رَبِّكُمَا تُكَذِّبَانِ

Alternative: which deliberate withholdings of your Lord will you both deny

Research rendering: which lordly manifestations will you both deny

The refrain ranges over teaching, creation, order, judgment, and reward as perceivable divine acts, not restrained engagement.

positive favor

55:42

فَبِأَىِّ ءَالَآءِ رَبِّكُمَا تُكَذِّبَانِ

Alternative: which pleasant favors will you deny after criminals are seized by forelocks and feet

Research rendering: which lordly manifestations will you deny

The immediately preceding punitive scene prevents positive benefit from exhausting the noun's Quranic range.
