وَإِنَّهُمْ لَيَصُدُّونَهُمْ عَنِ ٱلسَّبِيلِ وَيَحْسَبُونَ أَنَّهُم مُّهْتَدُونَ
Wainnahum laya s uddoonahum AAani a l ssabeeli waya h saboona annahum muhtadoon a
whereupon, behold, these [evil impulses] bar all such from the path [of truth], making them think that they are guided aright!
  - Mohammad Asad
- and turns such people away from the Right Path, while they think that they are guided aright.
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
who will certainly hinder them from the 'Right' Way while they think they are 'rightly' guided.
  - Mustafa Khattab
And lo! they surely turn them from the way of Allah, and yet they deem that they are rightly guided;
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
Such (evil ones) really hinder them from the Path but they think that they are being guided aright! 4639
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali

The downward course in evil is rapid. But the most tragic consequence is that evil persuades its victims to believe that they are pursuing good. They think evil to be their good. They go deeper and deeper into the mire, and become more and more callous. "Them" and "they" represent the generic plural of anyone who "withdraws himself from...Allah" (see last verse).
