English - Hazrat Molavi Sher Ali ra
And for those who do wrong there is a share of comfort like the share enjoyed by their fellows of the earlier times; so let them not ask Me to hasten on the punishment.
English - Five Volume Translation
So the fate of those who do wrong shall surely be like the fate of their fellows of old; so let them not ask Me to hasten on the punishment.[3928]
Important Words:
ذنوب (lot) is derived from ذنب. They say ذنبه i.e. he followed his tail, not quitting his track. ذنوب means; a great bucket; a bucket full of water or nearly full of water (an empty bucket is called دلو); fate, lot, share or portion; requital. The word also signifies a day of prolonged evil (Lane & Aqrab).
Commentary:
The verse warns disbelievers that if they persisted in their evil course, they will meet with a fate similar to that of the opponents of former Prophets. Like them they will come to a sad end.
