The verses from 5-10:

[6] He has created man from a single being, and then made its mate of the same (kind). And he has made for you eight kinds of the cattle in pairs. He creates you in your mothers' womb, creation after creation, in three veils of darkness. Such then is Allah, your lord. To him belongs (all) dominion and kingdom. There is no god except him. How, then, can you turn away?
[7] if you are ungrateful, then surely Allah is self-sufficient above all need of you; and he does not like ungratefulness in his servants; and if you are grateful, he likes it in you; and no bearer of burden shall bear the burden of another; then to your lord is your return, then will he inform you of what you did; surely he is cognizant and knows well all that is in (men's) hearts.
[8] and when distress afflicts a man he calls upon his lord turning to him frequently; then when he makes him possess a favor from him, he forgets that for which he called upon him before, and sets up rivals to Allah that he may cause (men) to stray off from his path. Say: enjoy your disbelief and ungratefulness for awhile, you shall surely be among the companions of the fire.
[9] or, is he who is obedient that prostrates himself and stands during parts of the night, being afraid of the everlasting life but hoping for the mercy of the lord (to be compared to the unbeliever)?
Say: "are those equal, those who know and those who do not know? It is those who are endued with understanding that receive admonition.
[10] Say: 'My worshipers, who believe, fear your lord and observe your duty to your lord. For those who do good in this world there is good and Allah's earth is spacious. Verily those who are patient and steadfast will be paid their wages without stint (will be recompensed in full without count).

The interpretation of the verses 5-10:

The threefold darkness of man's creation

6) He created man from a single soul, namely, Adam, and then made from it its mate, Eve;
And He has provided for you of cattle eight kinds of camels, cows, small cattle, sheep and goats, eight kinds, of each kind a male and a female
He creates you in your mothers’ wombs, creation after creation, that is to say, as a sperm-drop, then the fertilized ovum, then a fetus, in a threefold darkness, that is, the darkness of the belly, that of the womb and that of the placenta.
That is Allah, your Lord. To Him belongs all sovereignty,
There is no Creator or Fashioner except Him.
There is no god except Him. Why then are you being turned away from worshipping Him to worshipping [things] other than Him?

Allah is self-sufficient above all need of you
Allah is not pleased with…
The Golden Law: No soul will bear the sins of another

7) If ye are thankless,
If you disbelieve in Muhammad
And if you disbelieve in the Quran,
Yet Allah is Independent of you
Allah is self-sufficient above all need of you
Allah is not in need of your faith,
Though He is not pleased with thanklessness for His bondmen)
Though He is not pleased with disbelief in Muhammad
And He is not pleased with disbelief in the Quran,
Because disbelief is not His religion;
And if ye are thankful
If you believe
He is pleased therewith for you
He will accept it from you because that is His religion.
No laden soul will bear another's load
No soul will bear the sins of another;
No soul will be taken to task for the sins of another soul,
For each soul will be taken to task for its own sins
No soul will be punished for no crime.
Then unto your Lord is your return after death;
and He will tell you on the Day of Judgment what you have done in the life of this world.
Lo! He is the knower of all what is in the heart of man of good and evil.

Back to the Golden Law: No soul will bear the sins of another, it is a very important law that. In the teachings of church, Jesus was sent to bear the sin of Adam!

The disbelievers in between distress and grace!

8) And when some hurt, distress, hardship and or trial befalls a person, especially the disbelieving man, he supplicates his Lord, he implores, turning, returning, to Him penitently.
Then, when He bestows on him a grace from Himself, he forgets, he neglects, Him Whom he had supplicated, implored, before, namely, God and sets up equals, associates, with God, that he may beguile (men) from His way) from His religion and obedience.
Say: ‘Take pleasure in thy disbelief, Revel in your ingratitude for a while, for a little in the life of this world.
You shall indeed be among the inhabitants of the Fire’.
------------

Are they equal, the intellectual and the Ignorant?

9) Or is he, who devotes himself in worship, observing duties of obedience,
He who obeys Allah and the Prophet
In the watches of the night, during its hours,
Prostrating and standing, in prayer, apprehensive of the eventuality of the Hereafter,
In other words, fearing its chastisement, and hoping for the mercy, the Paradise, of his Lord
And hoping for the mercy of his Lord; hoping for the Garden of his Lord
Bewaring of the Hereafter; fearing the torment of the Hereafter
Like one who is disobedient through disbelief or otherwise?
Say: ‘Are those who know Allah's divine Oneness and Allah's commands and prohibitions equal in reward and acts of obedience with those who do not know Allah's divine Oneness or Allah's commands and prohibitions?
In other words, they are not equal, just as the person of knowledge is not equal to the ignorant one.
Only people of pith, possessors of intellect, remember, only they are admonished.
Only men of understanding, only those possessed of intellect among people will pay heed, will take admonition from the similitude of the Quran.
------------

The outcome of the steadfast

10) Say: ‘O servants of mine who believe!
O My bondmen who believe
Fear your Lord;
Observe your duty to your Lord
Obey your Lord in small and great things
That is to say, fear His chastisement, by being obedient to Him.
For those who are virtuous in this world, through obedience, there will be good, and that is Paradise,
For those who do good, for those who believe in Allah's divine Oneness in this world they will have the Garden on the Day of Judgment
And God’s earth is vast, so emigrate throughout it, away from the company of disbelievers and the sight of indecencies.
The land of Medina is spacious, is safe from the enemy, so travel to it; (when Muslims fled from Mecca to Madina escaping from the disbelievers who want to eliminate all of them).
Truly the steadfast, in their obedience of God and in enduring whatever hardship they may be tested with,
The steadfast in the face of misfortunes
Will be paid their reward in full without any reckoning’, without any measure or any scales to work it out, without any delay
