M. H. Shakir, The Holy Quran; Arabic Text and English Translation; Foot-notes by M. H. Shakir (1974)

Allah’s reward is better for him who believes and does good, and none is made to receive this except the patient.

81. Thus We made the earth to swallow up him and his abode; so he had no body of helpers to assist him against Allah, nor was he of those who can defend themselves.

82. And those who yearned for his place only the day before began to say: Ah! (know) that Allah amplifies and straitens the means of subsistence for whom He pleases of His servants; had not Allah been gracious to us, He would most surely have abased us; ah! (know) that the ungrateful are never successful.

83. (As for) that future abode, We assign it to those who have no desire to exalt* themselves in the earth nor to make mischief and the good end is for those who guard (against evil).

84. Whoever brings good, he shall have better than it, and whoever brings evil, those who do evil shall not be rewarded
