Qur'an 71:5-9 Nuh

قَالَ رَبِّ إِنِّى دَعَوْتُ قَوْمِى لَيْلًۭا وَنَهَارًۭا فَلَمْ يَزِدْهُمْ دُعَآءِىٓ إِلَّا فِرَارًۭا وَإِنِّى كُلَّمَا دَعَوْتُهُمْ لِتَغْفِرَ لَهُمْ جَعَلُوٓا۟ أَصَٰبِعَهُمْ فِىٓ ءَاذَانِهِمْ وَٱسْتَغْشَوْا۟ ثِيَابَهُمْ وَأَصَرُّوا۟ وَٱسْتَكْبَرُوا۟ ٱسْتِكْبَارًۭا ثُمَّ إِنِّى دَعَوْتُهُمْ جِهَارًۭا ثُمَّ إِنِّىٓ أَعْلَنتُ لَهُمْ وَأَسْرَرْتُ لَهُمْ إِسْرَارًۭا

He said, "My Lord, indeed I invited my people [to truth] night and day.But my invitation increased them not except in flight.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.Then I invited them publicly.Then I announced to them and [also] confided to them secretly

What it says · verse 5

The address turns. From here the speech is no longer to the people but about them, and the one listening is the Lord who sent him. Nuh files a report, and the first thing in it is that the calling never stopped. Nothing is asked for yet.
