20:134 And if we had destroyed them with some
punishment before it, they would assuredly have said: Our
Lord! If only Thou hadst sent unto us a messenger, so that
we might have followed Thy revelations before we were
(thus) humbled and disgraced!
20:135 Say: Each is awaiting; so await ye! Ye will come to
know who are the owners of the path of equity, and who is
right. [Cancelled by verse 9:5, i.e. violence replaces
patience]^536
