﴿وَمَا أَمْوَالُكُمْ وَلَا أَوْلَادُكُم بِالَّتِي تُقَرِّبُكُمْ عِندَنَا زُلْفَىٰ إِلَّا مَنْ آمَنَ وَعَمِلَ صَالِحًا فَأُولَٰئِكَ لَهُمْ جَزَاءُ الضِّعْفِ بِمَا عَمِلُوا وَهُمْ فِي الْغُرُفَاتِ آمِنُونَ﴾
[ سبأ: 37]
34:37 And it is not your wealth or your children that bring you nearer to Us in position, but it is [by being] one who has believed and done righteousness. For them there will be the double reward for what they did, and they will be in the upper chambers [of Paradise], safe [and secure].
Tafsir Ibn Katheer in EnglishAnd your wealth and your children which you boast over are not what leads you to Allah’s pleasure, but the one who believes in Allah and does good actions has acquired has acquired a multiplied reward.
His wealth draws him closer to Allah by him spending it in Allah's way, and his children also are a means for raising his rank, by their prayers for him.
So those believers who do good deeds - for them is a multiple reward for the good they did and they will be in the higher ranks of Paradise, safe from whatever they fear; punishment, death and ending of joy.
Muhammad Taqiud-Din alHilali
And it is not your wealth, nor your children that bring you nearer to Us (i.e. pleases Allah), but only he (will please Us) who believes (in the Islamic Monotheism), and does righteous deeds; as for such, there will be twofold reward for what they did, and they will reside in the high dwellings (Paradise) in peace and security.

Abdullah Yusuf Ali - Translation
It is not your wealth nor your sons, that will bring you nearer to Us in degree: but only those who believe and work righteousness - these are the ones for whom there is a multiplied Reward for their deeds, while secure they (reside) in the dwellings on high!
Safi-ur-Rahman al-Mubarakpuri
And it is not your wealth, nor your children that bring you nearer to Us, but only he who believes, and does righteous deeds; as for such, there will be multiple rewards for what they did, and they will reside in the high dwellings (Paradise) in peace and security.

34:37 And it is not your wealth or your children that bring you translate in arabic
وما أموالكم ولا أولادكم بالتي تقربكم عندنا زلفى إلا من آمن وعمل صالحا فأولئك لهم جزاء الضعف بما عملوا وهم في الغرفات آمنون
سورة: سبأ - آية: ( 37 ) - جزء: ( 22 ) - صفحة: ( 432 )Almuntakhab Fi Tafsir Alquran Alkarim
(You people had better realize that) neither your wealth nor your progeny are the conditions vouchsafing for your nearness to Allah nor do they sanction your misdeeds or your infidelity. To the contrary, what bring closer to Allah are conforming ones will to His will and imprinting ones deeds with wisdom and piety. Such persons shall be requited with double the reward commensurate with their deeds and shall live safe and secure in stately abodes
Tafseer Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi
(34:37) It is not your riches nor your children that make you near-stationed to Us, except for him who has faith and acts righteously; *57 it is they who will receive double the recompense for their deeds. They shall live in lofty mansions in perfect peace. *58
And it is not your wealth or your children that bring you meaning
*57) This can have two meanings and both are correct: (1) That which brings the people nearer to Allah is not wealth and children but faith and righteous deeds; and (2) wealth and children can become a means of nearness to Allah only for that believing, righteous person, who spends his wealth in the way of Allah and tries to make his children God-conscious and righteous by good education and training.
*58) Here there is also a subtle allusion that their blessing shall be imperishable, and their reward endless. For one cannot enjoy with full satisfaction of the heart a reward which is likely to perish or withdrawn suddenly at any time.
And it is not your wealth or your children that bring you meaning in Urdu
یہ تمہاری دولت اور تمہاری اولاد نہیں ہے جو تمہیں ہم سے قریب کرتی ہو ہاں مگر جو ایمان لائے اور نیک عمل کرے یہی لوگ ہیں جن کے لیے اُن کے عمل کی دہری جزا ہے، اور وہ بلند و بالا عمارتوں میں اطمینان سے رہیں گے
