The reason for it being "ungratefulness" is probably the second sentence, which seems to be the opposite of the first one and talks about "gratefulness":
"''If you disbelieve, then verily, Allah is not in need of you, He likes not '''disbelief''' for His slaves. And if you are grateful (by being believers), He is pleased therewith for you..''" - Muhsin Khan
"''If ye reject (Allah), Truly Allah hath no need of you; but He liketh not '''ingratitude''' from His servants: if ye are grateful, He is pleased with you. ''" - Yusuf Ali
"''If you are '''ungrateful''', then surely Allah is Self-sufficient above all need of you; and He does not like ungratefulness in His servants..''" - Shakir
"In case you disbelieve, then surely Allah is Ever-Affluent (Literally: Ever-Rich) to do without you, and He is not satisfied with '''disbelief''' from His bondmen. And in case you thank (Him), He is satisfied with it for you." - Dr. Ghali
"''If ye are thankless, yet Allah is Independent of you, though He is not pleased with '''thanklessness''' for His bondmen; and if ye are thankful He is pleased therewith for you. ''" - Pickthall
