Ill and poor, not chastised

Nor upon those who came to you asking for mounts, but you said, “I have nothing to carry you on.” They turned away with tears in their eyes, grieving that they could not afford to join the struggle.

9:92Nor unto those whom, when they came to thee (asking) that thou shouldst mount them, thou didst tell: I cannot find whereon to mount you. They turned back with eyes flowing with tears, for sorrow that they could not find the means to spend.
