لِيَكْفُرُوا بِمَا آتَيْنَاهُمْ (That they may be ungrateful for what We have given them) — that is to say: they do this — namely, the ascribing of partners to Allah after the favour — so that they may thereby carry out their ingratitude toward the bounties We have bestowed upon them. فَتَمَتَّعُوا (Then enjoy yourselves): this is a threatening command — that is to say: enjoy, then, the worldly life and its adornments. فَسَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ (For you shall come to know) — that is to say: you shall soon know the consequence of your ingratitude toward Allah's bounties, and the end of your indulgence in worldly pleasures — for that is the torment of the Fire (al-nār).
