فَمَا كَانَ دَعْوَاهُمْ إِذْ جَاءهُمْ بَأْسُنَا إِلاَّ أَن قَالُواْ إِنَّا كُنَّا ظَالِمِينَ
[7:5]
Yet their cry, when Our punishment came to them, was nothing but that they said: Surely we were unjust.
When (thus) Our punishment took them, no cry did they utter but this: "Indeed we did wrong."
No plea had they, when Our terror came unto them, save that they said: Lo! We were wrong-doers.
