Tafsir Ibn Katheer in English

Abridged Explanation of the Quran

To follow Allah’s instruction and to utter fitting words that are not unseemly is better for them.
When fighting is imposed and the matter becomes serious, if they are true to Allah, in their having faith in Him and following Him, it would be better for them than hypocrisy and going against Allah’s instructions.

Muhammad Taqiud-Din alHilali

Obedience (to Allah) and good words (were better for them). And when the matter (preparation for Jihad) is resolved on, then if they had been true to Allah, it would have been better for them.
