إِنَّ فِى ذَٰلِكَ لَـَٔايَةً ۖ وَمَا كَانَ أَكْثَرُهُم مُّؤْمِنِينَ
Inna fee tha lika la a yatan wam a k a na aktharuhum mumineen a
In this [story], behold, there is a message [unto men],54 even though most of them will not believe [in it].
  - Mohammad Asad

For the message specifically alluded to here, see verses {111-115}, as well as note [50] above.

Surely in this story there is a great lesson, but most of these people do not learn a lesson and become believers.
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
Surely in this is a sign. Yet most of them would not believe.
  - Mustafa Khattab
Lo! herein is indeed a portent, yet most of them are not believers.
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
Verily in this is a Sign: but most of them do not believe. 3193
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali

Ibis and the following verse run like a refrain throughout this Sura, and give the key-note to the subject-matter: how the Message of Allah is preached, how it is rejected in all ages, and how it triumphs at last, through the Mercy of Allah. See xxvi. 8-9, 68-69, 103-104, here (121-122), 139-140, 158-159, 174-175, and 190-191.
