9:118

وَعَلَى الثَّلٰثَةِ الَّذٖینَ خُلِّفُواؕ حَتّٰٓى اِذَا ضَاقَتْ عَلَیْهِمُ الْاَرْضُ بِمَا رَحُبَتْ وَضَاقَتْ عَلَیْهِمْ اَنْفُسُهُمْ وَظَنُّٓوا اَنْ لَا مَلْجَاَ مِنَ اللّٰهِ اِلَّٓا اِلَیْهِؕ ثُمَّ تَابَ عَلَیْهِمْ لِیَتُوبُواؕ اِنَّ اللّٰهَ هُوَ التَّوَّابُ الرَّحٖیمُࣖ

WaAAala alththalathati allatheena khullifoo hatta itha daqat AAalayhimu alardu bima rahubat wadaqat AAalayhim anfusuhum wathannoo an la maljaa mina Allahi illa ilayhi thumma taba AAalayhim liyatooboo inna Allaha huwa alttawwabu alrraheemu

Translations

And [He also forgave] the three who were left behind [and regretted their error] to the point that the earth closed in on them in spite of its vastness and their souls confined them and they were certain that there is no refuge from Allah except in Him. Then He turned to them so they could repent. Indeed, Allah is the Accepting of repentance, the Merciful

Saheeh International

And to the three also (did He turn in mercy) who were left behind, when the earth, vast as it is, was straitened for them, and their own souls were straitened for them till they bethought them that there is no refuge from Allah save toward Him. Then turned He unto them in mercy that they (too) might turn (repentant unto Him). Lo! Allah! He is the Relenting, the Merciful
