(If they have the upper hand of you) if the people of Mecca defeat you, (they will be your foes) by killing you, it will be evident for you that they are your enemies, (and will stretch out their hands) to beat you (and their tongues towards you with evil (intent)) with abuse and slander, (and they) the disbelievers of Mecca (long for you to disbelieve) in Allah after you have accepted faith in Muhammad (pbuh) and in the Qur'an and migrated to Allah's Messenger (pbuh).
Al-Jalalayn Commentary
If they were to prevail over you they would be your enemies and would stretch out against you their hands to kill and assault you and their tongues with evil intent with insults and reviling; and they long for you to disbelieve.
