And the companions of the Elevations will call to men [within Hell] whom they recognize by their mark, saying, "Of no avail to you was your gathering and [the fact] that you were arrogant."
Word-by-word meaning
Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)
مَآ أَغْنَى عَنكُمْ جَمْعُكُمْ("Of what benefit to you was your gathering...") meaning, your great numbers, وَمَا كُنتُمْ تَسْتَكْبِرُونَ("...and your arrogance") This Ayah means, your great numbers and wealth did not save you from Allah's torment. Rather, you are dwelling in His torment and punishment.
