فَأَخَذْنَـٰهُ وَجُنُودَهُۥ فَنَبَذْنَـٰهُمْ فِى ٱلْيَمِّ وَهُوَ مُلِيمٌ
Faakha th n a hu wajunoodahu fanaba th n a hum fee alyammi wahuwa muleem un
We seized him and his hosts, and cast them all into the sea: and [none but Pharaoh] himself was to blame [for what happened].27
  - Mohammad Asad

This is an illustration of the Qur'anic doctrine that the suffering which is bound to befall an evildoer in this world or in the life to come, or in both, is but a consequence of his own doings.

Consequently, We seized him and his warriors, and cast them into the sea. Indeed he deserved much blame.
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
So We seized him and his soldiers, casting them into the sea while he was blameworthy.1
  - Mustafa Khattab

 Because of his arrogance and disbelief.

So We seized him and his hosts and flung them in the sea, for he was reprobate
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
So We took him and his forces and threw them into the sea: and his was the blame. 5017
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali

The ungodly Egyptians were all destroyed, but the chief blame lay on Pharaoh for misleading them. Pharaoh's punishment was just. He could not blame any one else. And certainly no one can blame the course of Allah's Justice, for Allah was patient, and gave him many chances to repent.
