quran:7:5

And their declaration when Our punishment came to them was only that they said, "Indeed, we were wrongdoers!"  

And their only plea, their ˹only˺ words, when Our might came upon them, was to say, ‘We were evildoers indeed’.
القرآن:٧:٥

فَمَا كَانَ دَعْوَاهُمْ إِذْ جَاءَهُمْ بَأْسُنَا إِلَّا أَنْ قَالُوا إِنَّا كُنَّا ظَالِمِينَ  

{فما كان دعواهم} قولهم {إذ جاءهم بأسنا إلا أن قالوا إنا كنا ظالمين}.
