قُلْ مَا سَأَلْتُكُم مِّنْ أَجْرٍ فَهُوَ لَكُمْ ۖ إِنْ أَجْرِىَ إِلَّا عَلَى ٱللَّهِ ۖ وَهُوَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَىْءٍ شَهِيدٌ Qur’an Saba (34:47)
Qul m a saaltukum min ajrin fahuwa lakum in ajriya ill a AAal a All a hi wahuwa AAal a kulli shayin shaheed un
Say: "No reward have I ever asked of you [out of anything] that is yours:58 my reward rests with none but God, and He is witness unto everything!"
  - Mohammad Asad

I.e., no reward of a material nature: cf. 25:57 - "no reward other than that he who so wills may unto his Sustainer find a way".

Tell them: "I do not ask you for any recompense, even though what I preach is all in your interest. My reward is only due from Allah and He is a witness over everything."
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
Say, 'If I had ever asked you for a reward, you could keep it. My reward is only from Allah. And He is a Witness over all things.'

Say: Whatever reward I might have asked of you is yours. My reward is the affair of Allah only. He is Witness over all things.

Say: "No reward do I ask of you: it is (all) in your interest: my reward is only due from Allah: and He is Witness to all things." 3859
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali
Abdullah Yusuf Ali

Cf. x. 72. The second argument is that he has nothing to gain from them. His message is for their own good. He is willing to suffer persecution and insult, because he has to fulfil his mission from Allah.
