9:57
لَوْ يَجِدُونَ مَلْجَـًٔا أَوْ مَغَـٰرَٰتٍ أَوْ مُدَّخَلًۭا لَّوَلَّوْا۟ إِلَيْهِ وَهُمْ يَجْمَحُونَ ٥٧
Had they but found a refuge, or caverns, or a place to enter, they surely had resorted thither swift as runaways.
If they could find a refuge or some caves or any place to enter [and hide], they would turn to it while they run heedlessly.
If they could find any shelter or any cavern, or any retreat, they would turn around and rush headlong into it.

Summary
This Surah is known by two names -- At-Taubah and Al-Bara'at. It is called At-Taubah because it enunciates the nature of taubah (repentance) and mentions the conditions of its acceptance.(vv. 102. 118). The second name Bara'at (Release) is taken from the first word of the Surah.
