نَسُوا
مَا
ذُكِّرُوا
بِهِ
أَنجَيْنَا
الَّذِينَ
يَنْهَوْنَ
عَنِ
السُّوءِ
وَأَخَذْنَا
الَّذِينَ
ظَلَمُوا
بِعَذَابٍ
بَئِيسٍ
بِمَا
كَانُوا
يَفْسُقُونَ

When they disregarded the warnings that had been given them, We rescued those who forbade Evil; but We visited the wrong-doers with a grievous punishment because they were given to transgression.
— Abdullah Yusufali
So when they forgot what they had been reminded of, We delivered those who forbade evil [conduct] and seized the wrongdoers with a terrible punishment because of the transgressions they used to commit.
