2:66
فَجَعَلْنَـٰهَا نَكَـٰلًا لِّمَا بَيْنَ يَدَيْهَا وَمَا خَلْفَهَا وَمَوْعِظَةً لِّلْمُتَّقِينَ
fajaʿalnāhā nakālan limā bayna yadayhā wamā khalfahā wamawʿiẓatan lil'muttaqīna
And We made it a deterrent punishment for those who were present and those who succeeded [them] and a lesson for those who fear Allāh.

We made this an example to those people who were there at the time and to those who came after them, and a lesson to all who are mindful of God.
— M. A. S. Abdel Haleem
So We made this punishment an example to their own and to succeeding generations and a lesson to those who are Al-Muttaqûn (the pious - See V.2:2).
