وَبَدَا لَهُمْ سَيِّـَٔاتُ مَا كَسَبُوا۟ وَحَاقَ بِهِم مَّا كَانُوا۟ بِهِۦ يَسْتَهْزِءُونَ Qur’an Az-Zumar (39:48)
Wabad a lahum sayyi a tu m a kasaboo wa ha qa bihim m a k a noo bihi yastahzioon a
and obvious to them will have become the evil that they had wrought [in life]: and thus shall they be overwhelmed by the very truth which they were wont to deride.54
  - Mohammad Asad
Mohammad Asad

Lit., "that which they were wont to deride will enfold them" or "will have enfolded them": i.e., the reality of life after death and of the spiritual truths preached by God's prophets will overwhelm them.

The evils result of their deeds will become manifest to them and they will be completely encircled by the very thing they used to mock at.
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
And the evil 'consequences' of their deeds will unfold before them, and they will be overwhelmed by what they used to ridicule.
  - Mustafa Khattab
Mustafa Khattab
And the evils that they earned will appear unto them, and that whereat they used to scoff will surround them.
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
Marmaduke Pickthall
For the evils of their Deeds will confront them and they will be (completely) encircled by that which they used to mock at! 4317
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali
Abdullah Yusuf Ali

How humiliating it will be for them to realise that the things they used to mock at are realities all around them, and the things they were so eager to pursue are mere falsehoods or vanities!
