یَتَوَارٰی مِنَ الْقَوْمِ مِنْ سُوْٓءِ مَا بُشِّرَ بِهٖ ؕ اَیُمْسِكُهٗ عَلٰی هُوْنٍ اَمْ یَدُسُّهٗ فِی التُّرَابِ ؕ اَلَا سَآءَ مَا یَحْكُمُوْنَ ۟

Saheeh International
He hides himself from the people because of the ill of which he has been informed. Should he keep it in humiliation or bury it in the ground? Unquestionably, evil is what they decide.
Al-Mukhtasar fi Tafsir
He hides from his people because of the bad news of the birth of a girl that was given to him. He asks himself: Shall he keep this girl that he was given news of with humiliation and dejection, or shall he bury her alive and hide her in the dust? How evil is the decision that the idolaters make when they assigned to their Lord what they detest for themselves.
