فَلَمۡ يَزِدۡهُمۡ دُعَآءِيٓ إِلَّا فِرَارٗا ﴿٦﴾

Falam yazidhum duʿaee illa firaran

But my invitation increased them not except in flight

وَإِنِّي كُلَّمَا دَعَوۡتُهُمۡ لِتَغۡفِرَ لَهُمۡ جَعَلُوٓاْ أَصَٰبِعَهُمۡ فِيٓ ءَاذَانِهِمۡ وَٱسۡتَغۡشَوۡاْ ثِيَابَهُمۡ وَأَصَرُّواْ وَٱسۡتَكۡبَرُواْ ٱسۡتِكۡبَارٗا ﴿٧﴾

Wainnee kullama daʿawtuhum litaghfira lahum jaʿaloo asabiʿahum fee athanihim waistaghshaw thiyabahum waasarroo waistakbaroo istikbaran

And indeed, every time I invited them that You may forgive them, they put their fingers in their ears, covered themselves with their garments, persisted, and were arrogant with [great] arrogance

ثُمَّ إِنِّي دَعَوۡتُهُمۡ جِهَارٗا ﴿٨﴾

Thumma innee daʿawtuhum jiharan

Then I invited them publicly

Waqad adalloo katheeran wala tazidi alththalimeena illa dalalan

And already they have misled many. And, [my Lord], do not increase the wrongdoers except in error

مِّمَّا خَطِيٓـَٰٔتِهِمۡ أُغۡرِقُواْ فَأُدۡخِلُواْ نَارٗا فَلَمۡ يَجِدُواْ لَهُم مِّن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ أَنصَارٗا ﴿٢٥﴾
