وَلَكِنَّ لَامَهُ لِأَجَلِ الْمُصِيبَةِ الَّتِي لَحِقَتْهُمْ بِالْخَطِيَّةِ
But he reproached him for the calamity that had befallen them because of the sin.
بالخطيئة — by the sin. A preposition 'with/by' fused to a definite noun, marking the sin as the means by which the calamity came. The whole 'by the sin' is one written word, so a single Arabic chunk equals an English phrase; the preposition holds the noun in the genitive.
