Transliteration:( Qaala laa takhtasimoo ladaayya wa qad qaddamtu ilaikum bilwa'eed )
47. On the Day of Judgement the infidels would be saying Oh our Lord, we are innocent and were misled by the devil. The devil will refute this. It would be said to both of them: "Keep quiet and go into Hell". This tells us that the infidels would not be given any opportunity to argue with the devil. But, the oppressor and the oppressed believers would be putting up an argument. The oppressed would demand what is due to him. Says Allah Almighty: "You will dispute before your Lord" (S37:V31). Thus, there is no inconsistency in the verse.
48. The Almighty Allah had conveyed to you all His promises and punishment through the Prophets and the Books revealed to them. Because the infidels are entitled to the punishments, therefore mention is made of the punishments only.

Please refer to Surah Qaf ayat 23 which provides the complete commentary from verse 23 through 29.
(50:28) (It was said): “Do not remonstrate in My presence. I had warned you.[35]
35. That is, I had warned both of you as to what punishment will be given to the one who beguiles and what punishment will be suffered by him who is beguiled. In spite of this warning when you did not desist from committing your respective crimes, there is no use quarreling now. Both, the one who beguiled and the one who was beguiled have to be punished for the crimes committed by them.
