We won't be doing that any time soon.
The translation is of course debatable, though I think this comes fairly close (unless the context is a strange one I don't know).
The Dutch should be 'dat zit er niet in'.

there's no chance of that
figurative. Also: mispelling: it should be 'dat zit er niet in'
Example sentence:
that zit er niet in
