He said: "I intend to wed one of these my daughters to thee, on condition that thou serve me for eight years; but if thou complete ten years, it will be (grace) from thee. But I intend not to place thee under a difficulty: thou wilt find me, indeed, if Allah wills, one of the righteous."

他说：“我必定以我的这两个女儿中的一个嫁给你，但你必须替我做八年工。如果你做满十年，那是你自愿的，我不愿苛求于你。如果真主意欲，你将发现我是一个善人。”
