11:29

وَيٰقَوْمِ لاۤ أَسْأَلُكُمْ عَلَيْهِ مَالاً إِنْ أَجْرِيَ إِلاَّ عَلَى ٱللَّهِ وَمَآ أَنَاْ بِطَارِدِ ٱلَّذِينَ آمَنُوۤاْ إِنَّهُمْ مُّلاَقُواْ رَبِّهِمْ وَلَـٰكِنِّيۤ أَرَاكُمْ قَوْماً تَجْهَلُونَ

 

wayāqawmi lā asalukum ʿalayhi mālan in ajriya illā ʿalā l-lahi wamā anā biṭāridi alladhīna āmanū innahum mulāqū rabbihim walākinnī arākum qawman tajhalūna

 

The Aya says:

And my people, I do not ask for it money.  My recompense is from Allah.  And I am not expelling those who attained faith.  They will meet their nurturing Lord.  However, I observe you a people who lack insight.

 

My personal note:

Noah’s answer is strong.  He tells them that his message is not for a gain from them and that ultimately, they are ignorant or willingly so despite his informing them of all.
