3:146
وَكَأَيِّنْ مِنْ نَبِيّ ٍ قَاتَلَ مَعَه ُُ رِبِّيُّونَ كَثِير ٌ فَمَا وَهَنُوا لِمَا أَصَابَهُمْ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ وَمَا ضَعُفُوا وَمَا اسْتَكَانُوا وَاللَّهُ يُحِبُّ الصَّابِرِينَ
Wa Ka'ayyin Min Nabīyin Qātala Ma`ahu Ribbīyūna Kathīrun Famā Wahanū Limā 'Aşābahum Fī Sabīli Allāhi Wa Mā Đa`ufū Wa Mā Astakānū Wa Allāhu Yuĥibbu Aş-Şābirīna

And when We seized them with the punishment, they did not humble themselves to their Lord nor did they invoke Him.
