لَعَلَّكَ بَـٰخِعٌ نَّفْسَكَ أَلَّا يَكُونُوا۟ مُؤْمِنِينَ
LaAAallaka b a khiAAun nafsaka all a yakoonoo mumineen a
Wouldst thou, perhaps, torment thyself to death [with grief] because they [who live around thee] refuse to believe [in it]?3
  - Mohammad Asad

See notes [3] and [4] on 18:6 .

O Muhammad, you will perhaps fret yourself to death with grief because they do not believe.
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
Perhaps you 'O Prophet' will grieve yourself to death over their disbelief.
  - Mustafa Khattab
It may be that thou tormentest thyself (O Muhammad) because they believe not.
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
It may be thou frettest thy soul with grief that they do not become Believers. 3139
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali

"They" are the Pagans of Makkah. From a human point of view it was a great disappointment to Allah's Messenger in the middle period of his Makkan ministry that the Makkan could not be brought to believe in the Truth.
