Tanwîr al-Miqbâs min Tafsîr Ibn ‘Abbâs
(Those concerning whom the Word) of wrath and torment, i.e. the leaders, (will have come true) has been enjoined upon (will say: Our Lord!) O our Lord! (These) lowly people (are they whom we led astray) we led to error. (We led them astray) we misled them from the Truth and guidance (even as we ourselves were astray. We declare our innocence before You) we exonerate ourselves from them: (us they never worshipped) i.e. by our command.
