And when they [i.e., those advised] forgot that by which they had been reminded, We saved those who had forbidden evil and seized those who wronged, with a wretched punishment, because they were defiantly disobeying.

அவர்கள் எது குறித்து உபதேசிக்கப் பட்டார்களோ, அதனை அவர்கள் மறந்து விட்டபோது, அவர்களைத் தீமையைவிட்டு விலக்கிக் கொண்டிருந்தவர்களை நாம் காப்பாற்றினோம்; வரம்பு மீறி அக்கிரமம் செய்து கொண்டிருந்தவர்களுக்கு, அவர்கள் செய்து வந்த பாவத்தின் காரணமாக கடுமையான வேதனையைக் கொடுத்தோம்.

කවර දෙයක් ඔවුනට උපදෙස් දෙනු ලැබුවේ ද එය ඔවුන් අමතක කළ කල්හි නපුරෙන් වළක්වන්නන් (පමණක්) අපි මුදවා ගත්තෙමු. තවද අපරාධ කළවුන් පාපකම් කරමින් සිටි හේතුවෙන් දැඩි දඬුවමකින් අපි ඔවුන් ග්‍රහණය කළෙමු.
UrduMaulana Muhammad Junagarhi
سو جب وه اس کو بھول گئے جو ان کو سمجھایا جاتا تھا تو ہم نے ان لوگوں کو تو بچا لیا جو اس بری عادت سے منع کیا کرتے تھے اور ان لوگوں کو جو کہ زیادتی کرتے تھے ایک سخت عذاب میں پکڑ لیا اس وجہ سے کہ وه بےحکمی کیا کرتے تھے۔

それでかれらが与えられている訓戒を無視した時,われは,悪を避けた者を救い,不義を行う者には恥ずべき懲罰を加えた。(それは)かれらが主の掟に背いていたためである。

当他们不采纳忠告的时候,我拯救了戒人作恶者,而以严刑惩罚不义者,因为他们犯了罪。

Tafsir of 7:165

Those who breached the Sabbath were turned into Monkeys, but Those Who prohibited Their Actions were saved Allah said that the people of this village were divided into three groups: a group that committed the prohibition, catching fish on the Sabbath, as we described in the Tafsir of Surat Al-Baqarah. Another group prohibited them from transgression and avoided them. A third group neither prohibited them nor participated in their action. The third group said to the preachers, لِمَ تَعِظُونَ قَوْمًا اللَّهُ مُهْلِكُهُمْ أَوْ مُعَذِّبُهُمْ عَذَاباً شَدِيدًا ("Why do you preach to a people whom Allah is about to destroy or to punish with a severe torment"). They said, 'Why do you forbid these people from evil, when you know that they are destroyed and have earned Allah's punishment?' Therefore, they said, there is no benefit in forbidding them. The preachers replied, مَعْذِرَةً إِلَى رَبِّكُمْ ("In order to be free from guilt before your Lord (Allah),") `for we were commanded to enjoin righteousness and forbid evil,' وَلَعَلَّهُمْ يَتَّقُونَ ("and perhaps they may fear Allah") for on account of our advice, they might stop this evil and repent to Allah.…
