كَالَّذِينَ
مِن
قَبْلِكُمْ
كَانُوا
أَشَدَّ
مِنكُمْ
قُوَّةً
وَأَكْثَرَ
أَمْوَالًا
وَأَوْلَادًا
فَاسْتَمْتَعُوا
بِخَلَاقِهِمْ
فَاسْتَمْتَعْتُم
بِخَلَاقِكُمْ
كَمَا
اسْتَمْتَعَ
الَّذِينَ
مِن
قَبْلِكُم
بِخَلَاقِهِمْ
وَخُضْتُمْ
كَالَّذِي
خَاضُوا
أُولَئِكَ
حَبِطَتْ
أَعْمَالُهُمْ
فِي
الدُّنْيَا
وَالْآخِرَةِ
وَأُولَئِكَ
هُمُ
الْخَاسِرُونَ

like that of those who lived before you, whose power, wealth, and children were much greater than yours. They enjoyed their share of the worldly gains and you, also, like them, have enjoyed yours. You have been sneaking among the people to cause trouble, just as they had been doing before you. Such people's deeds are devoid of all virtue both in this life and in the life hereafter. They indeed are lost.
