﴿ فَذَاقَتْ وَبَالَ أَمْرِهَا وَكَانَ عَٰقِبَةُ أَمْرِهَا خُسْرًا ﴾

“and thus they had to taste the evil outcome of their own doing: for, [in this world,] the end of their doings was ruin,”

So it tasted the evil consequences of its conduct the punishment for it and the consequence of its conduct was utter loss failure and destruction.
