38:3
كَمْ أَهْلَكْنَا مِن قَبْلِهِم مِّن قَرْنٍ فَنَادَوا۟ وَّلَاتَ حِينَ مَنَاصٍ
Alternative: they cried out, but it was no time for a cry
Research rendering: they cried out, but it was no time for escape
The first cry is already overtly named by فَنَادَوا۟; the denied time concerns a different outcome that the late cry can no longer obtain—escape from destruction.
