That they may bear their own burdens in full on the Day of Resurrection and some of the burdens of those whom they misguide without knowledge. Unquestionably, evil is that which they bear.

Ibn Abbas Commentary

(That they may bear their burdens) their sins (undiminished on the Day of Resurrection, with somewhat of the burdens) as well as the sins (of those whom they mislead) those whom they drove away from Muhammad (pbuh) and from the Qur'an and faith (without knowledge) or proof. (Ah! evil is that which they bear!) evil are the sins which they bear, i.e. those who were slain at the valley of Badr among the leaders of Quraysh.

That they may bear at the conclusion of the matter their burdens their sins complete none of them expunged on the Day of Resurrection and also bear some of the burdens of those whom they lead astray without any knowledge because they summoned them to error and they the latter followed them and thus both share in the sin. How evil awful is the burden they bear this load of sins of theirs which they carry.
