147وَالَّذينَ كَذَّبوا بِآياتِنا وَلِقاءِ الآخِرَةِ حَبِطَت أَعمالُهُم ۚ هَل يُجزَونَ إِلّا ما كانوا يَعمَلونَMuhammad AsadHence, all who give the lie to Our messages, and [thus] to the truth1 of the life to come -in vain shall be all their doings: [for] are they to be rewarded for aught but what they were wont to do?2Lit., "to the meeting (liqa')" - in the sense of its being a pre-ordained fact.This is the end of the parenthetic passage beginning with the words, "I will show you the way the iniquitous shall go".
