English Translation
16Pharaoh had opposed the messenger, and We had punished him severely.
Explanatory translation
16But Pharaoh, too, had opposed the messenger who invited him to salvation, just as you do, and had stubbornly persisted in preserving the system of shirk. So, as a lesson, We seized him and those who followed his system with a terrible punishment, holding them fast, and destroyed him along with his whole army. So you must take a lesson from what befell them.
