And We decreed We revealed to the Children of Israel in the Scripture the Torah ‘You shall indeed work corruption in the land the land of Syria through acts of disobedience twice and you shall indeed become great tyrants’ you shall perpetrate grave injustice.
Ibn Abbas Commentary
(And We decreed) in the Torah (for the Children of Israel in the Scripture: Ye verily will work corruption) you will indeed commit acts of disobedience (in the earth twice, and ye will become great tyrants) it is also said that this means: you will be mightily overpowered.
