Allah the Exalted and Most Honored said in another Ayah,

وَقَالَ الشَّيْطَـنُ لَمَّا قُضِىَ الاٌّمْرُ

إِنَّ اللَّهَ وَعَدَكُمْ وَعْدَ الْحَقِّ وَوَعَدتُّكُمْ فَأَخْلَفْتُكُمْ وَمَا كَانَ لِىَ عَلَيْكُمْ مِّن سُلْطَـنٍ إِلاَّ أَن دَعَوْتُكُمْ فَاسْتَجَبْتُمْ لِى فَلَ تَلُومُونِى وَلُومُواْ أَنفُسَكُمْ مَّأ أَنَاْ بِمُصْرِخِكُمْ وَمَأ أَنتُمْ بِمُصْرِخِىَّ إِنِّى كَفَرْتُ بِمَأ أَشْرَكْتُمُونِ مِن قَبْلُ

إِنَّ الظَّـلِمِينَ لَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ

And Shaytan will say when the matter has been decided;

"Verily, Allah promised you a promise of truth. And I too promised you, but I betrayed you. I had no authority over you except that I called you, and you responded to me. So blame me not, but blame yourselves. I cannot help you, nor can you help me. I deny your former act in associating me as a partner with Allah.

Verily, there is a painful torment for the wrongdoers." (14;22)

Allah the Exalted said

His satanic friend or companion will say: "My Creator, I never incited him to evil; he was already and thus early an opinionated man who had erred and strayed from your ways like lost sheep
