لِلْأَدَوَاتِ — the tools. The 'li-' ties 'gathering' to its object — the tools of the trade. The plural ends in -at and takes the -i form after the preposition; these are the disciplines an interpreter must master.

As for those who are not qualified, because they do not possess the tools, interpretation is forbidden for them.
