وَإِذَا عَلِمَ مِنْ ءَايَـٰتِنَا شَيْـًٔا ٱتَّخَذَهَا هُزُوًا ۚ أُو۟لَـٰٓئِكَ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ مُّهِينٌ
Wai tha AAalima min a y a tin a shayan ittakha th ah a huzuwan ol a ika lahum AAa tha bun muheen un
for when he does become aware of any of Our messages, he makes them a target of his mockery! For all such there is shameful suffering in store.
  - Mohammad Asad
And when something of Our revelations come to his knowledge, he takes them as a joke; for all such people there will be a humiliating punishment.
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
And whenever they learn anything of Our revelations, they make a mockery of it. It is they who will suffer a humiliating punishment.
  - Mustafa Khattab
And when he knoweth aught of Our revelations he maketh it a jest. For such there is a shameful doom.
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
And when he learns something of Our Signs he takes them in jest: for such there will be a humiliating Penalty. 4743
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali

Note that in each of the verses 8-11 the Penalty is characterised by a certain description, which accords with the crime. (1) In verse 8, the man is arrogant about the Signs of Allah's love and care all around him, and his Penalty is "grievous". (2) In verse 9, he ridicules Allah's Signs, and his Penalty is "humiliating": he makes himself a ridiculous fool, (3) and (4) are described in the two following notes.
