قالوا ان يسرق فقد سرق اخ له من قبل فاسرها يوسف في نفسه ولم يبدها لهم قال انتم شر مكانا والله اعلم بما تصفون

They said: "If he steals, There was a brother of his Who did steal before (him)." But these things did Joseph Keep locked in his heart, Revealing not the secrets to them. He (simply) said (to himself): "Ye are the worse situated; And God knoweth best The truth of what ye assert!"
