Yusuf Ali
In a land close by; but they, (even) after (this) defeat of theirs, will soon be victorious-
Shakir
In a near land, and they, after being vanquished, shall overcome,
Dr. Ghali
In the more adjacent (i.e., more easy to reach; the Levant) (part) of the earth. And even after their being overcome, they will overcome (the others)
Muslim scholars had translated it as "closest" or "nearest" , this word also means that metaphorically . Quranic language includes metaphors in some verses . Old scholars had translated this "nearest" because they thought that this is another metaphor , people in old times didnt know the place was world's lowest point .

Try to be objective and research if you want to learn . I'm not different from you and Quran is a book open for everyone , you dont need to be "scholar" .
