Quran 12:33
قَالَ رَبِّ ٱلسِّجْنُ أَحَبُّ إِلَىَّ مِمَّا يَدْعُونَنِىٓ إِلَيْهِ ۖ وَإِلَّا تَصْرِفْ عَنِّى كَيْدَهُنَّ أَصْبُ إِلَيْهِنَّ وَأَكُن مِّنَ ٱلْجَـٰهِلِينَ
| EnglishTalal Itani | He said, “My Lord, prison is more desirable to me than what they call me to. Unless You turn their scheming away from me, I may yield to them, and become one of the ignorant.” |

| EnglishPickthall, 1930 | He said: O my Lord! Prison is more dear than that unto which they urge me, and if Thou fend not off their wiles from me I shall incline unto them and become of the foolish. |
| TurkishElmalılı Hamdi Yazır, 1935 | Yâ rabbi! Dedi: zindan bana bunların da'vet ettikleri fi'ilden daha sevimli ve eğer sen benden bu kadınların tuzaklarını bertaraf etmezsen ben onların sevdasına düşerim ve cahillerden olurum |
| FrenchKazimirski, 1840 | — Seigneur ! s’écria Joseph, la prison est préférable au crime auquel ces femmes me convient ; et si tu ne détournes pas de moi leurs artifices, je cèderai à mon inclination pour elles et je serai du nombre des insensés. |
| DutchKeyzer, 1860, from Kazimirski's French | Jozef zeide: O Heer! eene gevangenis is verkieselijker voor mij, dan de misdaad, waartoe zij mij willen verleiden, en indien gij hare kunstgrepen niet van mij afwendt, zal ik aan mijne neiging voor haar toegeven en zal ik tot de dwazen behooren. |
| ItalianCalza, 1847, from Kazimirski's French | Signore! gridò Giuseppe, il carcere è da preferirsi al delitto a cui que- ste donne m’invitano; e se tu non mi proteggi contro le loro insidie, io potrei cadervi per inclinazione giovanile, ed agire come uno sciocco. |
