وَإِمَّا تَخَافَنَّ مِن قَوْمٍ خِيَانَةًۭ فَٱنۢبِذْ إِلَيْهِمْ عَلَىٰ سَوَآءٍ ۚ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ لَا يُحِبُّ ٱلْخَآئِنِينَ

If you [have reason to] fear from a people betrayal, throw [their treaty] back to them, [putting you] on equal terms. Indeed, Allah does not like traitors.

Ibn Kathīr (abridged)

وَإِمَّا تَخَافَنَّ مِن قَوْمٍ

(If you fear from any people), with whom you have a treaty of peace,

خِيَانَةً

(treachery), and betrayal of peace treaties and agreements that you have conducted with them,

فَانبِذْ إِلَيْهِمْ

(then throw back (their covenant) to them), meaning their treaty of peace.
