Sura 23 Al-Mu'minun (The Believers), ayah 76

  1. وَلَقَدْ أَخَذْنَاهُمْ بِالْعَذَابِ فَمَا اسْتَكَانُوا لِرَبِّهِمْ وَمَا يَتَضَرَّعُونَ

    Translation by words

    وَلَقَدْ
    And verily
    أَخَذْنَٰهُم
    We seized them
    بِٱلْعَذَابِ
    with the punishment
    فَمَا
    but not
    ٱسْتَكَانُوا۟
    they submit
    لِرَبِّهِمْ
    to their Lord
    وَمَا
    and not
    يَتَضَرَّعُونَ
    they supplicate humbly

    And We had gripped them with suffering (as a warning), but they did not yield to their Lord, nor did they humbly supplicate, (and will continue thus)

    23:76
