﴿١٠٧﴾

Without diacritics

فان عثر على انهما استحقا اثما فاخران يقومان مقامهما من الذين استحق عليهم الاوليان فيقسمان بالله لشهادتنا احق من شهادتهما وما اعتدينا انا اذا لمن الظالمين

But if it gets known That these two were guilty Of the sin (of perjury), Let two others stand forth In their places,—nearest In kin from among those Who claim a lawful right: Let them swear by God: "We affirm that our witness Is truer than that Of those two, and that we Have not trespassed (beyond The truth): if we did, Behold! the wrong be Upon us!"
