فَعَتَوْا
عَنْ
أَمْرِ
رَبِّهِمْ
فَأَخَذَتْهُمُ
الصَّاعِقَةُ
وَهُمْ
يَنظُرُونَ

Then they defied the command of their Lord; so the thunderbolt seized them as they looked on.
— Ali Quli Qarai
But they insolently defied the Command of their Lord: So the stunning noise (of an earthquake) seized them, even while they were looking on.
