فَرِحِينَ بِمَآ ءَاتَىٰهُمُ ٱللَّهُ مِن فَضْلِهِۦ وَيَسْتَبْشِرُونَ بِٱلَّذِينَ لَمْ يَلْحَقُوا۟ بِهِم مِّنْ خَلْفِهِمْ أَلَّا خَوْفٌ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلَا هُمْ يَحْزَنُونَ Qur’an Aal-Imran (3:170)
Fari h eena bim a a t a humu All a hu min fa d lihi wayastabshiroona bi a lla th eena lam yal h aqoo bihim min khalfihim all a khawfun AAalayhim wal a hum ya h zanoon a
exulting in that [martyrdom] which God has bestowed upon them out of His bounty. And they rejoice in the glad tiding given to those [of their brethren] who have been left behind and have not yet joined them, that no fear need they have, and neither shall they grieve:
  - Mohammad Asad
Mohammad Asad
they are pleased with what Allah has given them and they are also happy to think that there is nothing to fear or to regret for those believers whom they have left behind and who have not yet joined them in their bliss.
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
rejoicing in Allah's bounties and being delighted for those yet to join them. There will be no fear for them, nor will they grieve.
  - Mustafa Khattab
Mustafa Khattab
Jubilant (are they) because of that which Allah hath bestowed upon them of His bounty, rejoicing for the sake of those who have not joined them but are left behind: that there shall no fear come upon them neither shall they grieve.
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
Marmaduke Pickthall
They rejoice in the bounty provided by Allah: and with regard to those left behind who have not yet joined them (in their bliss) the (martyrs) glory in the fact that on them is no fear nor have they (cause to) grieve. 478
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali
Abdullah Yusuf Ali

The Martyrs not only rejoice at the bliss they have themselves attained. The dear ones left behind are in their thoughts: it is part of their glory that they have saved their dear ones from fear, sorrow, humiliation, and grief, in this life, even before they come to share in the glories of the Hereafter. Note how the refrain: "on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve": comes in here with a new and appropriate meaning. Besides other things, it means that the dear ones have no cause to grieve at the death of the Martyrs; rather have they cause to rejoice.
