فلما سمعت بمكرهن ارسلت اليهن واعتدت لهن متكا واتت كل واحدة منهن سكينا وقالت اخرج عليهن فلما راينه اكبرنه وقطعن ايديهن وقلن حاش لله ما هذا بشرا ان هذا الا ملك كريم

When she heard Of their malicious talk, She sent for them And prepared a banquet For them: she gave Each of them a knife: And she said (to Joseph), "Come out before them." When they saw him, They did extol him, And (in their amazement) Cut their hands: they said, "God preserve us! no mortal Is this! This is none other Than a noble angel!"
