Translation (Sahih International)

Before them is Hell, and what they had earned will not avail them at all nor what they had taken besides Allah as allies. And they will have a great punishment.

Commentary (Tafsir Ibn Kathir)

The Description of the Sinful Liar and His RequitalAllah the Exalted says,تِلْكَ آيَـتُ اللَّهِ(These are the Ayat of Allah) -- in reference to the Qur'an with the proofs and evidences that it contains,نَتْلُوهَا عَلَيْكَ بِالْحَقِّ(which We recite to you with truth.) for they contain the truth from the Truth (i.e., Allah).
