وَأَصْحَـٰبُ ٱلْأَيْكَةِ وَقَوْمُ تُبَّعٍ ۚ كُلٌّ كَذَّبَ ٱلرُّسُلَ فَحَقَّ وَعِيدِ
Waa s ha bu alaykati waqawmu tubbaAAin kullun ka thth aba a l rrusula fa h aqqa waAAeed i
and the dwellers of the wooded dales [of Madyan], and the people of Tubba':8 they all gave the lie to the apostles - and thereupon that whereof I had warned [them] came true.
  - Mohammad Asad

Regarding "the people of Tubba'", see 44:37 and the corresponding note. The "dwellers of the wooded dales" are the people of Madyan (the Biblical Midian), as is evident from 26:176 ff. Their story is found in the Qur'an in several places; for the most detailed version, see {11:84-95}.

the dwellers of the Al-Aiykah and the people of Tubba; all of them disbelieved their Rasools and thus brought down upon them My threatened scourge.
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
the residents of the Forest,1 and the people of Tubba'.2 Each rejected 'their' messenger, so My warning was fulfilled.
  - Mustafa Khattab

 The people of Shu’aib (ﷺ).

 Tubba’ Al-Ḥimiari was an ancient righteous Yemeni king whose people persisted in disbelief and were destroyed, although they were superior to the Meccans in strength and manpower.

And the dwellers in the wood, and the folk of Tubb'a: every one denied their messengers, therefor My threat took effect.
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
The companions of the Wood and the people of Tubba; each one (of them) rejected the apostles and My warning was duly fulfilled (in them).
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali
