إِنَّكُمْ لَفِى قَوْلٍ مُّخْتَلِفٍ
Innakum lafee qawlin mukhtalif in
Verily, [O men,] you are deeply at variance as to what to believe:4
  - Mohammad Asad

Lit., "you are indeed in a discordant opinion (qawl)", i.e., as to whether or not there is life after death, whether God exists, whether there is any truth in divine revelation, and so forth.

surely you contradict one another in what you say,
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
Surely you are 'lost' in conflicting views 'regarding the truth'.1
  - Mustafa Khattab

 See footnote for 50:5.

Lo! ye, forsooth, are of various opinion (concerning the truth).
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
Truly ye are in a doctrine discordant 4994
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali

Qaul=saying, word, theory, doctrine. Mukhtalif =differing, various, inconsistent with itself, discordant. No theory or doctrine based on a denial of a Hereafter can be consistent with spiritual facts as we know them, or with Allah's Goodness, Justice, and Mercy.
