Verse 43of 112
أَمْ لَهُمْ ءَالِهَةٌۭ تَمْنَعُهُم مِّن دُونِنَا ۚ لَا يَسْتَطِيعُونَ نَصْرَ أَنفُسِهِمْ وَلَا هُم مِّنَّا يُصْحَبُونَ﴿٤٣﴾
Translation (Sahih International)
Or do they have gods to defend them other than Us? They are unable [even] to help themselves, nor can they be protected from Us.

Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)
The Lessons to be learned from Those Who mocked the Messengers in the PastAllah says consoling His Messenger for the pain and insult caused by the mockery and disbelief of the idolators,وَلَقَدِ اسْتُهْزِىءَ بِرُسُلٍ مِّن قَبْلِكَ فَحَاقَ بِالَّذِينَ سَخِرُواْ مِنْهُمْ مَّا كَانُواْ بِهِ يَسْتَهْزِءُونَ (Indeed (many) Messengers were mocked before you, but the scoffers were surrounded by what they used to mock.) meaning, the punishment which they thought would never come to pass.
