Sahih International
If they are expelled, they will not leave with them, and if they are fought, they will not aid them. And [even] if they should aid them, they will surely turn their backs; then [thereafter] they will not be aided.

Yusuf Ali
If they are expelled, never will they go out with them; and if they are attacked (in fight), they will never help them; and if they do help them, they will turn their backs; so they will receive no help.

Abul Ala Maududi
To be sure, if they are banished, they will not go with them and if war is waged against them, they will not aid them; and even if they provide any aid to them, they will still turn their backs, and thereafter no aid will be forthcoming to them.

Muhsin Khan
Surely, if they (the Jews) are expelled, never will they (hypocrites) go out with them, and if they are attacked, they will never help them. And if they do help them, they (hypocrites) will turn their backs, so they will not be victorious.

Pickthall
(For) indeed if they are driven out they go not out with them, and indeed if they are attacked they help them not, and indeed if they had helped them they would have turned and fled, and then they would not have been victorious.

Dr. Ghali
Indeed in case they are driven out, they will not go out with them; and indeed in case they are fought against, they will not vindicate them; and indeed in case they vindicate them, indeed they will definitely turn their backs; thereafter they will not be vindicated.

Abdel Haleem
if they are driven out, they will never leave with them; if they are attacked, they will never help them. Even if they did come to their aid, they would soon turn tail and flee- in the end they would have no help.

Muhammad Junagarhi
اگر وه جلاوطن کیے گئے تو یہ ان کے ساتھ نہ جائیں گے اور اگر ان سے جنگ کی گئی تو یہ ان کی مدد (بھی) نہ کریں گے اور اگر (بالفرض) مدد پر آبھی گئے تو پیٹھ پھیر کر (بھاگ کھڑے) ہوں گے پھر مدد نہ کیے جائیں گے
