Scoped occurrences shown in Quran order: 3.
حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَآ أَخَذْنَا مُتْرَفِيهِم بِٱلْعَذَابِ إِذَا هُمْ يَجْـَٔرُونَ
لَا تَجْـَٔرُوا۟ ٱلْيَوْمَ إِنَّكُم مِّنَّا لَا تُنصَرُونَ
Why this meaning was chosen
The three form-I imperfect occurrences form one tight sequence of distress cries: people cry to God when harm touches them, the affluent cry when punishment arrives, and they are told not to cry that day. Person, number, mood, and negation remain compositional.
