➋ {وَ صَرَّفْنَا فِيْهِ مِنَ الْوَعِيْدِ:} means that repeatedly and in various ways, He has warned of His punishment and grasp in this world and the Hereafter.
➌ { لَعَلَّهُمْ يَتَّقُوْنَ … : } so that they may fear, or at the very least, this may create some kind of admonition and advice in their hearts, and they may reflect on what happened to the previous nations—if we also commit sins, we will be destroyed just like them. (Ibn Kathir) Due to the tanween of indefiniteness on {’’ ذِكْرًا ‘‘}, it has been translated as "some kind of advice."

[81] That is, the purpose of mentioning the conditions of the Day of Judgment and the punishments for evil deeds in the Quran is so that people may fear the consequences of their bad actions and develop piety within themselves. And if this is not possible, then at the very least, some reflection may arise in their hearts. Perhaps this reflection may become a means of their guidance, and through them, others may also be guided.
