وَإِنِّي
كُلَّمَا
دَعَوْتُهُمْ
لِتَغْفِرَ
لَهُمْ
جَعَلُوا
أَصَابِعَهُمْ
فِي
آذَانِهِمْ
وَاسْتَغْشَوْا
ثِيَابَهُمْ
وَأَصَرُّوا
وَاسْتَكْبَرُوا
اسْتِكْبَارًا

"And every time I have called to them, that Thou mightest forgive them, they have (only) thrust their fingers into their ears, covered themselves up with their garments, grown obstinate, and given themselves up to arrogance.
— Abdullah Yusufali
Indeed whenever I have summoned them, so that You might forgive them, they would put their fingers into their ears and draw their cloaks over their heads, and they were persistent [in their unfaith], and disdainful in [their] arrogance.
