﴿وَاصْبِرْ نَفْسَكَ مَعَ الَّذِينَ يَدْعُونَ رَبَّهُم بِالْغَدَاةِ وَالْعَشِيِّ يُرِيدُونَ وَجْهَهُ ۖ وَلَا تَعْدُ عَيْنَاكَ عَنْهُمْ تُرِيدُ زِينَةَ الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا ۖ وَلَا تُطِعْ مَنْ أَغْفَلْنَا قَلْبَهُ عَن ذِكْرِنَا وَاتَّبَعَ هَوَاهُ وَكَانَ أَمْرُهُ فُرُطًا﴾
[ الكهف: 28]
18:28 And keep yourself patient [by being] with those who call upon their Lord in the morning and the evening, seeking His countenance. And let not your eyes pass beyond them, desiring adornments of the worldly life, and do not obey one whose heart We have made heedless of Our remembrance and who follows his desire and whose affair is ever [in] neglect.
Tafsir Ibn Katheer in EnglishRemain and be close with your poor companions who sincerely call on their Lord in worship and supplication at the beginning and at the end of the day.
Do not let your eyes overlook them intending to sit with people of affluence and prestige.
Do not follow the one whose heart I have made neglectful of Our remembrance by sealing it and who instructed you to remove the poor from your gathering giving preference to following his desire over following His Lord.
His actions and deeds are thus foolish, excessive and in vain.
Muhammad Taqiud-Din alHilali
And keep yourself (O Muhammad SAW) patiently with those who call on their Lord (i.e. your companions who remember their Lord with glorification, praising in prayers, etc., and other righteous deeds, etc.) morning and afternoon, seeking His Face, and let not your eyes overlook them, desiring the pomp and glitter of the life of the world; and obey not him whose heart We have made heedless of Our Remembrance, one who follows his own lusts and whose affair (deeds) has been lost.

And keep thy soul content with those who call on their Lord morning and evening, seeking His Face; and let not thine eyes pass beyond them, seeking the pomp and glitter of this Life; no obey any whose heart We have permitted to neglect the remembrance of Us, one who follows his own desires, whose case has gone beyond all bounds.
Safi-ur-Rahman al-Mubarakpuri

واصبر نفسك مع الذين يدعون ربهم بالغداة والعشي يريدون وجهه ولا تعد عيناك عنهم تريد زينة الحياة الدنيا ولا تطع من أغفلنا قلبه عن ذكرنا واتبع هواه وكان أمره فرطا
سورة: الكهف - آية: ( 28 ) - جزء: ( 15 ) - صفحة: ( 297 )Almuntakhab Fi Tafsir Alquran Alkarim
Be patient O Muhammad and rest content with those who invoke Allahs mercy and conciliation morning and evening in quest of nothing but His acceptance and His countenance speaking good will. And let not your minds eyes turn aside from them or vacillate between them and the worldly-minded, setting your thoughts upon the ephemeral and fleeting glories of the world. Nor should you obey the one neglecting his duty to Allah and by consequence We closed his hearts ears, the one who counsels deaf and lusts after his vain desires and carries his vanity to excess that he cannot be reclaimed from a life of vice nor will he be reclaimed by Allahs grace
Tafseer Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi
(18:28) And keep yourself whole-heartedly content with those who pray to their Lord morning and evening in order to win His approval, and do not turn your attention away from them. Do you desire the allurements of the world *28 ? Do not follow the one" *29 whose heart We have made neglectful of Our remembrance and who follows his own lust and goes to extremes in the conduct of his affairs. *30
And keep yourself patient [by being] with those who call upon their meaning
*28) Though these words have also been addressed to the Holy Prophet, they are really meant for the chiefs of the Quraish. According to a Tradition related by Ibn `Abbas, the chiefs of the Quraish would say to the Holy Prophet that they considered it below their dignity to sit with such people as Bilal, Suhaib, 'Ammar, Khabbab, Ibn-Mas`ud and the like who generally remained in his company: and that if he should send them away, they would be willing to attend his meetings in order to learn about his Message. At this Allah revealed this verse: "And keep yourself whole-heartedly content with those who pray to their Lord morning and evening in order to win His approval and do not turn your attention away from them: (Do you desire to discard these sincere but poor people so that the chiefs of the Quraish, the well-to-do people, should come and sit near you?)" This was meant to warn the chiefs of the Quraish to this effect: "Your wealth, your pomp and show of which you are so proud, has no value at all in the sight of Allah and His Messenger; nay, those poor people are really more worthy in their sight, for they are sincere and always remember Allah." The same was the attitude of the chiefs of Prophet Noah's people, who said, "And we see also that none but the meanest and the most shallow of our people have become your followers. " .... (Noah replied,) "I am not going to drive away those who have believed in me, nor can I say about those whom you disdain, `Allah has not bestowed any good on them' . . . " (XXI: vv. 27, 29, 31)
*29) That is, "Do not yield to what he says, nor submit to him, nor fulfil his desire, nor follow his bidding."
*30) The original Arabic text may also mean, "Who discards the truth, breaks all moral limits and rushes on headlong." But in both cases it comes to this: "The one, who is neglectful of Allah and becomes a slave of his lust, inevitably transgresses all limits and becomes a victim of immoderation. Therefore the one,who will submit to him, will also follow the same way and wander about in deviation after him.

اور اپنے دل کو اُن لوگوں کی معیت پر مطمئن کرو جو اپنے رب کی رضا کے طلب گار بن کر صبح و شام اُسے پکارتے ہیں، اور اُن سے ہرگز نگاہ نہ پھیرو کیا تم دنیا کی زینت پسند کرتے ہو؟ کسی ایسے شخص کی اطاعت نہ کرو جس کے دل کو ہم نے اپنی یاد سے غافل کر دیا ہے اور جس نے اپنی خواہش نفس کی پیروی اختیار کر لی ہے اور جس کا طریق کار افراط و تفریط پر مبنی ہے
