So We seized him and his hosts, and We threw them all into the sea (and drowned them).

Therefor We seized him and his hosts, and abandoned them unto the sea. Behold the nature of the consequence for evil-doers!
So We seized him and his hosts, and We flung them into the sea: Now behold what was the end of those who did wrong!
So We caught hold of him and his hosts, then We cast them into the sea, and see how was the end of the unjust.
