Quran 12:51
قَالَ مَا خَطْبُكُنَّ إِذْ رَٰوَدتُّنَّ يُوسُفَ عَن نَّفْسِهِۦ ۚ قُلْنَ حَـٰشَ لِلَّهِ مَا عَلِمْنَا عَلَيْهِ مِن سُوٓءٍ ۚ قَالَتِ ٱمْرَأَتُ ٱلْعَزِيزِ ٱلْـَٔـٰنَ حَصْحَصَ ٱلْحَقُّ أَنَا۠ رَٰوَدتُّهُۥ عَن نَّفْسِهِۦ وَإِنَّهُۥ لَمِنَ ٱلصَّـٰدِقِينَ
| EnglishTalal Itani | He said, “What was the matter with you, women, when you tried to seduce Joseph?” They said, “Allah forbid! We knew of no evil committed by him.” The governor’s wife then said, “Now the truth is out. It was I who tried to seduce him, and he is telling the truth.” |

| TurkishElmalılı Hamdi Yazır, 1935 | Melik, o kadınlara, derdiniz ne idi ki o vakıt Yusüfün nefsinden murad almağa kalktınız? Dedi, hâşâ dediler Allah için biz onun aleyhinde bir fenalık bilmiyoruz.

| FrenchKazimirski, 1840 | Le roi demanda alors à ses femmes : Que voulaient dire ces instances pour faire céder Joseph à vos désirs — Dieu nous garde ! répondirent-elles ; il ne s’est rendu coupable d’aucun péché que nous sachions. Et la femme de l’Aziz (du gouverneur de l’Égypte) ajouta : Maintenant la vérité est bien établie, c’est moi qui avait sollicité Joseph au mal ; lui, il a toujours dit la vérité. |
| DutchKeyzer, 1860, from Kazimirski's French | En toen de vrouwen voor den koning waren verzameld, zeide hij tot haar: Wat was uwe bedoeling toen gij Jozef tot eene onwettige liefde aanspoordet? Zij antwoordden: God zij geloofd! Wij weten geen kwaad van hem. De vrouw van den edelman (Aziz) zeide: Thans is de waarheid duidelijk geworden: Ik verzocht hem bij mij te liggen, en hij is een dergenen die waarheid spreken. |
| ItalianCalza, 1847, from Kazimirski's French | Il Re domandò allora a queste donne. Che volevano dire quelle istanze per far cedere Giuseppe ai vostri deriderj? Dio ci guardi! risposero; egli non ha commesso alcun peccato, per quanto noi sappiamo. E la moglie dell’Aziz (governatore dell’Egitto) soggiunse: Ora la verità si è mostrata al chiaro; sono io che aveva istigato Giuseppe al male; egli ha parlato sempre il vero. |
