يَوْمَ يَغْشَىٰهُمُ ٱلْعَذَابُ مِن فَوْقِهِمْ وَمِن تَحْتِ أَرْجُلِهِمْ وَيَقُولُ ذُوقُوا۟ مَا كُنتُمْ تَعْمَلُونَ Qur’an Al-Ankabut (29:55)
Yawma yaghsh a humu alAAa tha bu min fawqihim wamin ta h ti arjulihim wayaqoolu th ooqoo m a kuntum taAAmaloon a
[encompass them] on the Day when suffering will overwhelm them from above them and from beneath their feet,52 whereupon He shall say: "Taste [now the fruit ofl your own doines!"
  - Mohammad Asad
Mohammad Asad

I.e., from all directions and from many causes.

On that Day the punishment shall cover them from above and from beneath their feet, and Allah will say: "Now taste the reward of your deeds."
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
on the Day the punishment will overwhelm them from above them and from below their feet. And it will be said, 'Reap what you sowed.'
  - Mustafa Khattab
Mustafa Khattab
On the day when the doom will overwhelm them from above them and from underneath their feet, and He will say: Taste what ye used to do!
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
Marmaduke Pickthall
On the Day that the Punishment shall cover them from above them and from below them and (a Voice) shall say: "Taste ye (the fruits) of your deeds!" 3487 3488
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali
Abdullah Yusuf Ali

Cf. a similar phrase in vi. 65.

This is not merely a reproach, but a justification of the Punishment. "It is you who brought it on yourselves by your evil deeds: blame none but yourselves. Allah's Mercy gave you many chances: His Justice has now overtaken you!"
