72:9 And we used to sit therein in positions for hearing, but whoever listens now will find a burning flame lying in wait for him.

Tafsir Ibn Katheer in English
Abridged Explanation of the Quran

And that we in the past used to assume positions in the sky from where we could hear what the angels were deliberating, and then we would convey this to the fortune-tellers on earth.
Now things have changed.
Anyone of us who now tries to listen finds a flaming fire ready for him.
When he goes near, it is released on him and he is burnt by it.

Muhammad Taqiud-Din alHilali

'And verily, we used to sit there in stations, to (steal) a hearing, but any who listens now will find a flaming fire watching him in ambush.
