I suggest,

{24:30} Say to the believing men [that they should] reduce of their gazes and guard their gaps (private parts). That is purer for them. Verily, God is All-Aware of what they enact.

{24:31} And say to the believing women [that they should] reduce of their gazes, guard their gaps (private parts), not expose their adornment except what has surfaced of it, cast of their covers over their open necklines and not expose their adornment except to their husbands, their fathers, their husbands' fathers, their sons, their husbands' sons, their brothers, their brothers' sons, their sisters' sons, their women, that which their right hands possess, or dependents - other than those having sexual desire - of the men, or the infant who have not [yet] learned of the private aspects of women. And let them not trudge with their feet such that becomes known what they hide of their adornment. And repent to God, altogether, O believers, that perhaps you may prosper.
