وَنَبِّئهُم أَنَّ الماءَ قِسمَةٌ بَينَهُم ۖ كُلُّ شِربٍ مُحتَضَرٌ

فَنادَوا صاحِبَهُم فَتَعاطىٰ فَعَقَرَ

فَكَيفَ كانَ عَذابي وَنُذُرِ

So, how were My punishment and warnings?

إِنّا أَرسَلنا عَلَيهِم صَيحَةً واحِدَةً فَكانوا كَهَشيمِ المُحتَظِرِ

We sent them a single shriek, and they became like crushed trampled straw.

وَلَقَد يَسَّرنَا القُرآنَ لِلذِّكرِ فَهَل مِن مُدَّكِرٍ

We made the Quran easy to understand. Is there anyone who will understand?

We rained upon them a shower of stones, except for the family of Lot, We saved them early morning.

نِعمَةً مِن عِندِنا ۚ كَذٰلِكَ نَجزي مَن شَكَرَ

As a blessing from Us. Thus, do We reward those who give thanks.

وَلَقَد أَنذَرَهُم بَطشَتَنا فَتَمارَوا بِالنُّذُرِ

He had warned them of Our onslaught, but they disputed the warnings.

وَلَقَد راوَدوهُ عَن ضَيفِهِ فَطَمَسنا أَعيُنَهُم فَذوقوا عَذابي وَنُذُرِ

They even demanded his guests from him, so We obliterated their eyes. “Taste My punishment and warnings.”

وَلَقَد صَبَّحَهُم بُكرَةً عَذابٌ مُستَقِرٌّ

Morning brought them unrelenting suffering.
