(16) قالَ فَبِما أَغْوَيْتَنِي لَأَقْعُدَنَّ لَهُمْ صِراطَكَ الْمُسْتَقِيمَ
16. " He (Satan) said: ' Since You have let me wander off, I will certainly lay wait for (deceiving) them in Your Straight Path '."
Commentary :
Satan did not want, of course, to have a long life and to be alive in order to compensate the past, but he expressed his aim of this long life that, the same as he was wandered off, he could lay wait on the Straight Path of Allah and deceive them all, so that, the same that he got astray, they might go astray, too.
The verse says :
" He (Satan) said: ' Since You have let me wander off, I will certainly lay wait for (deceiving) them in Your Straight Path '."
