۞ أَوَلَمْ Do not يَسِيرُوا۟ they travel فِى in ٱلْأَرْضِ the earth فَيَنظُرُوا۟ and see كَيْفَ how كَانَ was عَـٰقِبَةُ (the) end ٱلَّذِينَ (of) those who كَانُوا۟ were مِن before them قَبْلِهِمْ ۚ before them كَانُوا۟ They were هُمْ [they] أَشَدَّ superior مِنْهُمْ to them قُوَّةًۭ (in) strength وَءَاثَارًۭا and (in) impressions فِى in ٱلْأَرْضِ the land فَأَخَذَهُمُ but Allah seized them ٱللَّهُ but Allah seized them بِذُنُوبِهِمْ for their sins وَمَا and not كَانَ was لَهُم for them مِّنَ against ٱللَّهِ Allah مِن any وَاقٍۢ protector ٢١
Have they not traveled through the land and observed how was the end of those who were before them? They were greater than them in strength and in impression on the land, but Allāh seized them for their sins. And they had not from Allāh any protector.
