Explanatory translation
16Be patient. Soon We will mark them with the brand of the people of Hell. We will brand the noses of these insolent, tyrannical, and arrogant people, noses that are the symbol of their pride, and break their arrogance. We will bring upon them a humiliation they cannot escape. On the Day of Reckoning, the mark on their noses will make it clear that these were insolent, ungrateful, and transgressing people.
