quran:36:30 –

How regretful for the servants. There did not come to them any messenger except that they used to ridicule him.  

Ah, the anguish for servants, ˹such as˺ these and their like from among those who denied the messengers and were destroyed (this ˹word, hasra˺ denotes ‘extreme agony’; the vocative here is being used metaphorically, in other words, ‘It is time for you ˹O anguish˺, so come now!’). Never did a messenger come to them but that they mocked him (this ˹statement˺ is given as an explanation of the cause thereof ˹of the ‘agony’˺ since it ˹the statement˺ entails their mockery which itself results in their being destroyed and which in turn is the cause of the ‘anguish’).
القرآن:٣٦:٣٠ –

يَا حَسْرَةً عَلَى الْعِبَادِ ۚ مَا يَأْتِيهِمْ مِنْ رَسُولٍ إِلَّا كَانُوا بِهِ يَسْتَهْزِئُونَ  

{يا حسرة على العباد} هؤلاء ونحوهم ممن كذبوا الرسل فأهلكوا، وهي شدة التألم ونداؤها مجاز، أي هذا أوانك فاحضري {ما يأتيهم من رسول إلا كانوا به يستهزءُون} مسوق لبيان سببها لاشتماله على استهزائهم المؤدى إلى إهلاكهم المسبب عنه الحسرة.
