﴿ كَدَأْبِ ءَالِ فِرْعَوْنَ ۙ وَٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِمْ ۚ كَذَّبُوا۟ بِـَٔايَٰتِ رَبِّهِمْ فَأَهْلَكْنَٰهُم بِذُنُوبِهِمْ وَأَغْرَقْنَآ ءَالَ فِرْعَوْنَ ۚ وَكُلٌّۭ كَانُوا۟ ظَٰلِمِينَ ﴾
“[To those sinners shall happen] the like of what happened to Pharaoh's people and those who lived before them: they gave the lie to their Sustainer's messages - and so We destroyed them in return for their sins, and caused Pharaoh's people to drown: for they were evildoers all.”
((Their way is) as the way of Pharaoh's folk) as the work of Pharaoh's folk (and those before them; they denied the revelations of their Lord) they disbelieved in Scriptures and messengers just as the disbelievers of Mecca disbelieved, (so We destroyed them in their sins) because of their disbelief. (And We drowned the folk of Pharaoh. All were evil-doers) disbelievers.
