As-Saffaat - 37:30

وَمَا كَانَ لَنَا عَلَيْكُم مِّن سُلْطَانٍ بَلْ كُنتُمْ قَوْمًا طَاغِينَ
[37:30]
And we had no authority over you, but you were an inordinate people;
"Nor had we any authority over you. Nay, it was ye who were a people in obstinate rebellion!
We had no power over you, but ye were wayward folk.
