ظَهَرَ
الْفَسَادُ
فِي
الْبَرِّ
وَالْبَحْرِ
بِمَا
كَسَبَتْ
أَيْدِي
النَّاسِ
لِيُذِيقَهُم
بَعْضَ
الَّذِي
عَمِلُوا
لَعَلَّهُمْ
يَرْجِعُونَ

Mischief has appeared on land and sea because of (the meed) that the hands of men have earned, that (Allah) may give them a taste of some of their deeds: in order that they may turn back (from Evil).
— Abdullah Yusufali
Corruption has appeared in land and sea because of the doings of the people’s hands, that He may make them taste something of what they have done, so that they may come back.
