وَتِلْكَ عَادٌ ۖ جَحَدُوا۟ بِـَٔايَـٰتِ رَبِّهِمْ وَعَصَوْا۟ رُسُلَهُۥ وَٱتَّبَعُوٓا۟ أَمْرَ كُلِّ جَبَّارٍ عَنِيدٍ
Watilka AA a dun ja h adoo bi a y a ti rabbihim waAAa s aw rusulahu wa i ttabaAAoo amra kulli jabb a rin AAaneed in
And that was [the end of the tribe of] 'Ad, [who] had rejected their Sustainer's messages, and rebelled against His apostles, and followed the bidding of every arrogant enemy of the truth.85
  - Mohammad Asad

An allusion to "the great ones among them, who refused to acknowledge the truth" ( 7:66 ). Regarding the above interpretation of the term jabbar, see note [58] on 26:130 .

Such were the people of 'Ad. They denied the revelations of their Rabb, disobeyed His Rasool, and followed the command of every stubborn oppressor.
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
That was 'Âd. They denied the signs of their Lord, disobeyed His messengers, and followed the command of every stubborn tyrant.
  - Mustafa Khattab
And such were Aad. They denied the revelations of their Lord and flouted His messengers and followed the command of every froward potentate.
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
Such were the `Ad people: they rejected the Signs of their Lord and Cherisher; disobeyed His Apostles; and followed the command of every powerful obstinate transgressor. 1555
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali

Instead of following the beneficent Lord who cherished them, they followed every rebel against Allah's Law, if he only obtained a little power to dazzle them.
