16. These are the ones from whom We accept the best of what they have done [25] and overlook their misdeeds. They are among the people of Paradise. (This is) the true promise which they were promised.
[25] That is, we will reward all their good deeds according to the best of their good deeds. Even if those deeds are not at the level of the very best ones. And we will completely overlook their mistakes and shortcomings.
