And already had those before them denied, and how [terrible] was My reproach.

Those who went before them also disbelieved- how terrible was My condemnation!

And verily those before them denied, then (see) the manner of My wrath (with them)!

But indeed men before them rejected (My warning): then how (terrible) was My rejection (of them)?

And of course, those before them (also) rejected (the truth). So, how was My censure?

And indeed those before them belied (the Messengers of Allâh), then how terrible was My denial (punishment)?

Those who came before them also gave the lie (to the Messengers): then how awesome was My chastisement!
