﴿ ثُمَّ بَعَثْنَا مِنۢ بَعْدِهِم مُّوسَىٰ بِـَٔايَٰتِنَآ إِلَىٰ فِرْعَوْنَ وَمَلَإِي۟هِۦ فَظَلَمُوا۟ بِهَا ۖ فَٱنظُرْ كَيْفَ كَانَ عَٰقِبَةُ ٱلْمُفْسِدِينَ ﴾

“AND AFTER those [early people] We sent Moses with Our messages unto Pharaoh and his great ones, and they wilfully rejected them: and behold what happened in the end to those spreaders of corruption!”

(Then, after them) after these messengers, (We sent Moses with our) nine (tokens unto Pharaoh and his chiefs) his people, (but they repelled them) they denied the tokens. (Now, see the nature of the consequence for the corrupters) see how destruction was the end result of the idolaters!
