Now looking at the very next verses that talk about the punishment of hell, they not once suggest this is for the reader. Instead of using the word أنتم or "you", God says هم or "they". THEY wronged THEMSELVES and are now in this state. THEY will regret THEIR past actions.
Reading this gives the reader hope in God and in his eternal bliss. Sometimes we feel like we are not doing enough and that goodness is just for a certain type of people, or "them". But it doesn't have to be that way. It can be me, you, we, us. أنتم: you all.
