And already were messengers ridiculed before you, but those who mocked them were enveloped by what they used to ridicule.

And certainly messengers before you were scoffed at, then there befell those of them who scoffed that at which they had scoffed.
Pickthall
Messengers before thee, indeed, were mocked, but that whereat they mocked surrounded those who scoffed at them.
