Tafsir of Verse 3

They have cried lies, and followed their caprices; but every matter is settled. (3)

They reject (the warning) and follow their (own) lusts but every matter has its appointed time. (3)

وَكُلُّ أَمْرٍ‌ مُّسْتَقِرٌّ‌ (...while every matter has to be settled....54:3). The literal meaning of the word istiqrar is to settle. The verse means that everything must ultimately reach its end and the matter must become clear. If a veil is fabricated and cast over the truth or reality, eventually [ in its designated time ] the false veil will be removed and the truth and falsehood will be clearly distinguished.
