59:12

لَئِنْ أُخْرِجُوا۟ لَا يَخْرُجُونَ مَعَهُمْ وَلَئِن قُوتِلُوا۟ لَا يَنصُرُونَهُمْ وَلَئِن نَّصَرُوهُمْ لَيُوَلُّنَّ ٱلْأَدْبَـٰرَ ثُمَّ لَا يُنصَرُونَ ١٢

Saheeh 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.

Tafsir of "Ibn Kathir" (English)

لَيِنْ أُخْرِجُوا لَا يَخْرُجُونَ مَعَهُمْSurely, if they (the Jews) are expelled, never will they (hypocrites) go out with them;Also, what they said they would do, would never have been fulfilled by them, and this is why Allah said,وَلَيِن قُوتِلُوا لَا يَنصُرُونَهُمْand if they are attacked, they will never help them.meaning, the hypocrites will not fight along with the Jews,وَلَيِن نَّصَرُوهُمْAnd (even) if they do help them,and even if the hypocrites did fight along their side,لَيُوَلُّنَّ الاَْدْبَارَ ثُمَّ لَا يُنصَرُونَthey will turn their backs, and they will not be victorious.This Ayah contains good news, just as the good news that this following Ayah conveys
