The misinterpretation
Do not be like those who left their homes (infidels) to steal and show off to the people and to distract people from the way of Allah. Allah has encompassed what they do.
The right translation
Do not resemble those who go out of their homes to prevent people from Allah’s path, to show off and to be seen by others. Allah has encompassed the things they are doing.
Explanation
This is where this verse goes wrong: Do not be like those (disbelievers) who left their homes to show off and to show off to people and to hinder people from the way of Allah. The truth is: Do not be like those (disbelievers) whom they drove out of their homes to show off and to show off to people and to hinder people from the way of Allah.
Muslims are merciful and conscientious people. Even though Muslims oppress people, they do not oppress them in the same way as an infidel does.
In this verse, it is written that those who show off and oppress are leaving their homeland. However, those who show off and oppress are those who, in order to show off, are full of selfishness and pride, and want to be respected and honored by showing themselves above others. These poor show-offs continue their oppression of the oppressed and orphaned by showing off their power and intimidating others. How beautifully our Lord warns Muslims not to be like these infidels. As we said above, no matter how much oppression a Muslim commits, he does not commit oppression like that of an infidel. They do not expel people from their homes, but help them as much as they can.

(?). They become sinners, that's all.
Yes. Verse 47 of Surah Al-Anfal.
To swagger, to show off to people and to turn people from Allah's path — do not be like those who left their homes, the unbelievers. Allah encompasses all that they do, it says. Now pay attention, look. To swagger, to show off to people and to turn people from Allah's path, those who left their homes. Whereas: to swagger, to show off to people and to turn people from Allah's path, the unbelievers who drove them from their homes. Do not be like the unbelievers who drove them from their homes. What does it say here? To swagger, to show off to people and to turn people from Allah's path, do not be like the unbelievers who left their homes. These unbelievers left their homes to swagger. Isn't that what it says?
Am I reading it wrong? To swagger, to show off to people and to turn people from Allah's path, do not be like those who left their homes, the unbelievers. Look. Do not be like the unbelievers. Allah encompasses all that they do. Now I'm reading the correct one. To swagger, to show off to people and to turn people from Allah's path, do not be like the unbelievers who drove them from their homes. Not: do not be like those who left their homes, the unbelievers. Do not be like the unbelievers who drove them from their homes. Allah encompasses all that they do. That is, they cannot step outside their destinies.
However much evil they do, it is within their destinies, and to hell's (?) place (?) of the greatest torment they have consigned themselves, their own nafs — such people they are, it says. Yes.
