Al-A'raf · Ayah 165 · Juz 9 · Page 172

فَلَمَّا نَسُواْ مَا ذُكِّرُواْ بِهِۦٓ أَنجَيۡنَا ٱلَّذِينَ يَنۡهَوۡنَ عَنِ ٱلسُّوٓءِ وَأَخَذۡنَا ٱلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُواْ بِعَذَابِۭ بَـِٔيسِۭ بِمَا كَانُواْ يَفۡسُقُونَ ١٦٥

Falammā nasū mā dhukkirū bihī anjaynal-ladhīna yanhawna ʿanis-sūʾi wa akhadhnal-ladhīna ẓalamū biʿadhābim baʾīsim bimā kānū yafsuqūn.

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.
