Important Words:

مثوبة (reward) is, like ثواب (with which it is synonymous), derived from ثاب which means, he returned, or he returned to a good condition. مثوبة and ثواب mean, requital or reward of good or bad deeds. Generally, they are used in the sense of a reward of good deeds (Aqrab).

Commentary:

If the Jews had possessed true faith in God and had acted in His fear, they would not have devoted all their energies to the acquisition of worldly gains but would have sought the good of the Hereafter. They have, however, been seeking the advantage of the present life only and have neglected the Hereafter altogether, which shows that they are utterly lacking in true faith and are not leading righteous lives.

اردو ترجمہ مودودی

اگر وہ ایمان اور تقویٰ اختیار کرتے، تو اللہ کے ہاں اس کا جو بدلہ ملتا، وہ ان کے لیے زیادہ بہتر تھا، کاش اُنہیں خبر ہوتی

English - Sahih

And if they had believed and feared Allah, then the reward from Allah would have been [far] better, if they only knew.

اردو ترجمہ احمد علی

اور اگر وہ ایمان لاتے اور پرہیز گاری کرتے تو البتہ الله کے ہاں کا اجر ان کے لیے بہتر تھا کاش وہ جانتے

English - Talal Itani

And if [that] they (had) believed and feared (Allah), surely (the) reward (of) from Allah (would have been) better, if they were (to) know.
