Yusuf Ali
If there had been immediate gain (in sight), and the journey easy, they would (all) without doubt have followed thee, but the distance was long, (and weighed) on them. They would indeed swear by Allah, "If we only could, we should certainly have come out with you": They would destroy their own souls; for Allah doth know that they are certainly lying.

Sahih International
Had it been an easy gain and a moderate trip, the hypocrites would have followed you, but distant to them was the journey. And they will swear by Allah, "If we were able, we would have gone forth with you," destroying themselves [through false oaths], and Allah knows that indeed they are liars.

Shakir
Had it been a near advantage and a short journey, they would certainly have followed you, but the tedious journey was too long for them; and they swear by Allah: If we had been able, we would certainly have gone forth with you; they cause their own souls to perish, and Allah knows that they are most surely

Pickthall
Had it been a near adventure and an easy journey they had followed thee, but the distance seemed too far for them. Yet will they swear by Allah (saying): If we had been able we would surely have set out with you. They destroy their souls, and Allah knoweth that they verily are liars.

محمد جالندھری
اگر مالِ غنیمت سہل الحصول اور سفر بھی ہلکا سا ہوتا تو تمہارے ساتھ (شوق سے) چل دیتے۔ لیکن مسافت ان کو دور (دراز) نظر آئی (تو عذر کریں گے)۔ اور خدا کی قسمیں کھائیں گے کہ اگر ہم طاقت رکھتے تو آپ کے ساتھ ضرور نکل کھڑے ہوتے یہ (ایسے عذروں سے) اپنے تئیں ہلاک کر رہے ہیں۔ اور خدا جانتا ہے کہ جھوٹے ہیں
