كَذَّبَتْ قَبْلَهُمْ قَوْمُ نُوحٍ فَكَذَّبُوا۟ عَبْدَنَا وَقَالُوا۟ مَجْنُونٌ وَٱزْدُجِرَ
Ka thth abat qablahum qawmu noo h in faka thth aboo AAabdan a waq a loo majnoonun wa i zdujir a
[LONG] BEFORE those [who now deny resurrection] did Noah's people call it a lie; and they gave the lie to Our servant and said, "Mad is he!" - and he was repulsed.6
  - Mohammad Asad

See {11:25-48}, where the story of Noah and the Flood is given in greater detail.

Long before them, the people of Nuh (Noah) disbelieved. They rejected Our servant, called him a madman and drove him out.
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
Before them, the people of Noah denied 'the truth' and rejected Our servant, calling 'him' insane. And he was intimidated.
  - Mustafa Khattab
The folk of Noah denied before them, yea, they denied Our slave and said: A madman; and he was repulsed.
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
Before them the People of Noah rejected (their apostle): they rejected Our servant and said "Here is one possessed!" and he was driven out. 5135
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali

The story of Noah and the Flood is frequently referred to in the Qur-an. The passage which best illustrates this passage will be found in xi. 25-48. Note in that passage how they first insult and abuse him arrogantly; how he humbly argues with them; how they laugh him to scorn, as much as to say that he was a madman possessed of some evil spirit; and how the Flood comes and he is saved in the Ark, and the wicked are doomed to destruction.
