فَلَمَّا قَضَيْنَا عَلَيْهِ الْمَوْتَ مَا دَلَّهُمْ عَلٰى مَوْتِه۪ٓ اِلَّا دَٓابَّةُ الْاَرْضِ تَاْكُلُ مِنْسَاَتَهُۚ فَلَمَّا خَرَّ تَبَيَّنَتِ الْجِنُّ اَنْ لَوْ كَانُوا يَعْلَمُونَ الْغَيْبَ مَا لَبِثُوا فِي الْعَذَابِ الْمُه۪ينِ ١٤

English Translation
14At last, when We brought Solomon's rule to an end, he did not notice that his state, on which he relied, was being gnawed away from within as if by a worm and was collapsing. It became clear that, had the jinn known the future, they would not have gone on laboring at those degrading heavy tasks.
