Translation

And for every nation is a messenger. So when their messenger comes, it will be judged between them in justice, and they will not be wronged

Verse interpretation (Tafsir)

Every past nation had a messenger sent to them. When the messenger delivered to them what he was instructed to, and they rejected him, it was judged justly between him and them. Allah saved the messenger out of His grace, and destroyed them through His justice; and they were not wronged in any way in the repayment for what they did.
