فَمَا
كَانَ
دَعْوَاهُمْ
إِذْ
جَاءَهُم
بَأْسُنَا
إِلَّا
أَن
قَالُوا
إِنَّا
كُنَّا
ظَالِمِينَ
fa-mā kāna daʿwāhum ʾidh jāʾahum baʾsunā ʾillā ʾan qālū ʾinnā kunnā ẓālimīna
When (thus) Our punishment took them, no cry did they utter but this: "Indeed we did wrong."
— Abdullah Yusufali
Then their cry, when Our punishment overtook them, was only that they said, ‘We have indeed been wrongdoers!’
