Now when they saw no hope of his (yielding), they held a conference in private. The leader among them said: "Know ye not that your father did take an oath from you in Allah's name, and how, before this, ye did fail in your duty with Joseph?

当他们对优素福绝望的时候，他们离席而密秘会议，他们的大哥说：“你们的父亲曾要求你们指真主发誓，难道你们不知道吗？从前，你们曾怠慢了优素福。我绝不离开这个地方，直到父亲允许我，或真主为我而判决，他是最公正的判决者。

他说：“不然，是这个最大的偶像做了这件事。如果他们会说话，你们就问问他们吧。”
