(But the evils that they earned) the chastisement for what they said, did and amassed of wealth in the life of the world (smote them; and such of these) among the disbelievers of Mecca (as do wrong) ascribe partners to Allah, (the evils that they earn will smite them) the punishment for what they did will touch them, just as it touched those before them; (they cannot escape) Allah's torment.
- 39:5151
فَأَصَابَهُمْ سَيِّئَاتُ مَا كَسَبُوا ۚ وَالَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا مِنْ هَٰؤُلَاءِ سَيُصِيبُهُمْ سَيِّئَاتُ مَا كَسَبُوا وَمَا هُمْ بِمُعْجِزِينَ
Then the worst of what they had done overtook them. So will the evil deeds of those who are sinners among them recoil back on them. They cannot get the better (of Us).
