سَوَآءٌ (It) is same عَلَيْهِمْ for them أَسْتَغْفَرْتَ whether you ask forgiveness لَهُمْ for them أَمْ or لَمْ (do) not تَسْتَغْفِرْ ask forgiveness لَهُمْ for them لَن Never يَغْفِرَ will forgive ٱللَّهُ Allah لَهُمْ ۚ [to] them إِنَّ Indeed ٱللَّهَ Allah لَا (does) not يَهْدِى guide ٱلْقَوْمَ the people ٱلْفَـٰسِقِينَ the defiantly disobedient ٦

It is all the same for them whether you ask forgiveness for them or do not ask forgiveness for them; never will Allāh forgive them. Indeed, Allāh does not guide the defiantly disobedient people.

يَقُولُونَ They say لَئِن If رَّجَعْنَآ we return إِلَى to ٱلْمَدِينَةِ Al-Madinah لَيُخْرِجَنَّ surely, will expel ٱلْأَعَزُّ the more honorable مِنْهَا from it ٱلْأَذَلَّ ۚ the more humble وَلِلَّهِ But for Allah ٱلْعِزَّةُ (is) the honor وَلِرَسُولِهِۦ and for His Messenger وَلِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ and for the believers وَلَـٰكِنَّ but ٱلْمُنَـٰفِقِينَ the hypocrites لَا (do) not يَعْلَمُونَ know ٨

They say, "If we return to al-Madīnah, the more honored [for power] will surely expel therefrom the more humble." And to Allāh belongs [all] honor, and to His Messenger, and to the believers, but the hypocrites do not know.
