Please refer to Surah Jinn ayat 11 which provides the complete commentary from verse 11 through 17.

15. The conversation of the jinn having come to an end, with this begins the speech of Allah.

16. This is the same thing as has been said in (Surah Nooh, Ayat 10-11). Seek forgiveness of Allah. He will send abundant rains for you from heaven. For explanation, see (Surah Nooh, ayat 12) note 12. Abundance of water has been used for abundance of blessings metaphorically for human life, and habitations also depend on water. Without water there can be no human settlement, nor can man’s basic needs be fulfilled, nor his industries work and prosper.
