"This Day shall no ransom be accepted of you, nor of those who rejected Allah." Your abode is the Fire: that is the proper place to claim you: and an evil refuge it is!"
— English Translation (Yusuf Ali)
So this Day no ransom will be accepted from you or from the disbelievers. Your abode is the Fire; it is a fitting place for you – what a wretched destination!”
— Ruwwad Center
So today no redemption will be accepted from you nor from those who disbelieve: your lodging shall be the Fire; it is your patron and how awful is such a goal!"
— Dr. T. B. Irving
So this Day no ransom shall be taken from you (hypocrites), nor of those who disbelieved, (in the Oneness of Allâh - Islâmic Monotheism). Your abode is the Fire. That is your maulâ (friend - proper place), and worst indeed is that destination.
— Muhammad Taqi-ud-Din al-Hilali & Muhammad Muhsin Khan
57:16
۞ أَلَمْ يَأْنِ لِلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُوٓا۟ أَن تَخْشَعَ قُلُوبُهُمْ لِذِكْرِ ٱللَّهِ وَمَا نَزَلَ مِنَ ٱلْحَقِّ وَلَا يَكُونُوا۟ كَٱلَّذِينَ أُوتُوا۟ ٱلْكِتَـٰبَ مِن قَبْلُ فَطَالَ عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلْأَمَدُ فَقَسَتْ قُلُوبُهُمْ ۖ وَكَثِيرٌۭ مِّنْهُمْ فَـٰسِقُونَ ١٦
Has the time not yet come for believers’ hearts to be humbled at the remembrance of Allah and what has been revealed of the truth, and not be like those given the Scripture before—˹those˺ who were spoiled for so long that their hearts became hardened. And many of them are ˹still˺ rebellious.
— Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran
Is it not time for those who have attained faith: that their hearts should become reverent towards Allah’s Reminder and to that which <span class="h">came down<sup foot_note="81288">1</sup> </span>of the <span class="h">truth, and not be<sup foot_note="81289">2</sup> </span>like those who were given the Scripture previously, but for whom time became prolonged so that their hearts hardened, and many of them are defiantly disobedient?
— Fadel Soliman, Bridges’ translation
Has the time not come for those who have believed that their hearts should become humbly submissive at the remembrance of Allāh and what has come down of the truth? And let them not be like those who were given the Scripture before, and a long period passed over them, so their hearts hardened; and many of them are defiantly disobedient.
— Saheeh International
Has not the time come for those who have faith in Allah and His Messenger that their hearts soften and become tranquil through the remembrance of Allah (may He be glorified), and through the promises and warnings that have been revealed in the Qur’ān? Has the time not come that they do not become like the Jews who were given the Torah and the Christians who were given the Gospel, in terms of their hearts hardening? This was due to the period prolonging between them and the era of their Prophets. The majority of them left the obedience of Allah, going into His disobedience.
— Abridged Explanation of the Quran
Has the time not yet come for those who believe that their hearts should be humble for the remembrance of Allah and for the truth that has descended (through revelation)? And they must not be like those to whom the Book was given before, but a long period passed on them (in which they did not repent), therefore their hearts became hard, while many of them were sinners.
— Maarif-ul-Quran

They must not be like those to whom the Book was given before, but a long period passed on them (in which they did not repent), therefore their hearts became hard, and (thus) many of them are sinne
