Translation
If, then, Allah bring thee back to any of them, and they ask thy permission to come out (with thee), say: "Never shall ye come out with me, nor fight an enemy with me: for ye preferred to sit inactive on the first occasion: Then sit ye (now) with those who lag behind."
Tafsir
So if God brings you back, from Tabook, to a party of them, of those hypocrites who stayed behind in Medina, and they ask leave of you to go forth, with you on some other campaign, say, to them: 'You shall never more go forth with me, and you shall never fight with me against an enemy. You were content to stay behind the first time, so stay behind with those who stay behind', away from [military] campaigns, such as women and children and others.
"Hypocrites are barred from participating in Jihad
Allah commands His Messenger, peace be upon him,
فَإِن رَّجَعَكَ اللّهُ
If Allah brings you back,
from this battle,
إِلَى طَأيِفَةٍ مِّنۡهُمۡ
to a party of them,
in reference to the twelve (hypocrite) men, according to Qatadah,
فَاسۡتَأۡذَنُوكَ لِلۡخُرُوجِ
and they ask your permission to go out,
with you to another battle,
فَقُل لَّن تَخۡرُجُواۡ مَعِيَ أَبَدًا وَلَن تُقَاتِلُواۡ مَعِيَ عَدُوًّا
say:""Never shall you go out with me nor fight an enemy with me...""
as an admonishment and punishment for them.
Allah mentioned the reason for this decision,
إِنَّكُمۡ رَضِيتُم بِالۡقُعُودِ أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍ
""You were pleased to sit (inactive) on the first occasion...""
Allah said in a similar Ayah,
وَنُقَلِّبُ أَفۡيِدَتَهُمۡ وَأَبۡصَـرَهُمۡ كَمَا لَمۡ يُوۡمِنُواۡ بِهِ أَوَّلَ مَرَّةٍ
And We shall turn their hearts and their eyes away (from guidance), as they refused to believe therein for the first time. (6:110)
The recompense of an evil deed includes being directed to follow it with another evil deed, while the reward of a good deed includes being directed to another good deed after it. For instance, Allah said concerning the Umrah of Hudaybiyyah,
سَيَقُولُ الۡمُخَلَّفُونَ إِذَا انطَلَقۡتُمۡ إِلَى مَغَانِمَ لِتَأۡخُذُوهَا
Those who lagged behind will say, when you set forth to take the spoils. (48:15)
Allah said next,
فَاقۡعُدُواۡ مَعَ الۡخَالِفِينَ
""...then you sit (now) with those who lag behind.""
in reference to the men who lagged behind from (Tabuk) battle, according to Ibn Abbas."
