YUSUF (JOSEPH) Total Verses: 111 Revealed At: MAKKA. In the name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful. 0

12 優素福古蘭經第一二章這章是麥加的，全章共計一一一節。奉至仁至慈的真主之名

الر تِلْكَ آيَاتُ الْكِتَابِ الْمُبِينِ

1a ʾalif-lām-rāʾ
1b tilka ʾāyātu l-kitābi l-mubīni

Alif. Lam. Ra. These are verse of the Scripture that maketh plain. 1

艾列弗，倆目，拉儀。這些是明確的天經的節文。

إِنَّا أَنزَلْنَاهُ قُرْآنًا عَرَبِيًّا لَّعَلَّكُمْ تَعْقِلُونَ

2a ʾin-nā ʾanzalnā-hu qurʾānan ʿarabīyan
2b laʿalla-kum taʿqilūna

Lo! We have revealed it, a Lecture in Arabic, that ye may understand. 2

我確已把它降示成阿拉伯文的《古蘭經》，以便你們了解。

نَحْنُ نَقُصُّ عَلَيْكَ أَحْسَنَ الْقَصَصِ بِمَا أَوْحَيْنَا إِلَيْكَ هَٰذَا الْقُرْآنَ وَإِن كُنتَ مِن قَبْلِهِ لَمِنَ الْغَافِلِينَ

3a naḥnu naquṣṣu ʿalay-ka ʾaḥsana l-qaṣaṣi bi-mā ʾawḥaynā ʾilay-ka hāḏā l-qurʾāna
3b wa-ʾin kunta min qabli-hī la-mina l-ġāfilīna

We narrate unto thee (Muhammad) the best of narratives in that We have inspired in thee this Qur’an, though aforetime thou wast of the heedless. 3

我借著啟示你這部《古蘭經》而告訴你最美的故事，在這以前，你確是疏忽的。

إِذْ قَالَ يُوسُفُ لِأَبِيهِ يَا أَبَتِ إِنِّي رَأَيْتُ أَحَدَ عَشَرَ كَوْكَبًا وَالشَّمْسَ وَالْقَمَرَ رَأَيْتُهُمْ لِي سَاجِدِينَ

4a ʾiḏ qāla yūsufu li-ʾabī-hi
4b V yā-ʾabat-i
4b ʾin-nī raʾaytu ʾaḥada ʿašara kawkaban wa-š-šamsa wa-l-qamara
4c raʾaytu-hum l-ī sāǧidīna

When Joseph said unto his father: O my father! Lo! I saw in a dream eleven planets and the sun and the moon, I saw them prostrating themselves unto me. 4

當時優素福對他父親說：「我的父親啊！我確已夢見十一顆星和太陽、月亮，我夢見他們向我鞠躬。」

قَالَ يَا بُنَيَّ لَا تَقْصُصْ رُؤْيَاكَ عَلَىٰ إِخْوَتِكَ فَيَكِيدُوا لَكَ كَيْدًا إِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ لِلْإِنسَانِ عَدُوٌّ مُّبِينٌ

5a qāla
5b V yā-bunay-ya
5b lā taqṣuṣ ruʾyā-ka ʿalā ʾiḫwati-ka
5c fa-yakīdū la-ka kaydan
5d ʾinna š-šayṭāna li-l-ʾinsāni ʿadūwun mubīnun

He said: O my dear son! Tell not thy brethren of thy vision, lest they plot a plot against thee. Lo! Satan is for man an open foe. 5

他說：「我的孩子啊！你不要把你的夢告訴你的哥哥們，以免他們謀害你；惡魔確是人類公開的仇敵。」

وَكَذَٰلِكَ يَجْتَبِيكَ رَبُّكَ وَيُعَلِّمُكَ مِن تَأْوِيلِ الْأَحَادِيثِ وَيُتِمُّ نِعْمَتَهُ عَلَيْكَ وَعَلَىٰ آلِ يَعْقُوبَ كَمَا أَتَمَّهَا عَلَىٰ أَبَوَيْكَ مِن قَبْلُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَإِسْحَاقَ إِنَّ رَبَّكَ عَلِيمٌ حَكِيمٌ

6a wa-ka-ḏālika yaǧtabī-ka rabbu-ka
6b wa-yuʿallimu-ka min taʾwīli l-ʾaḥādīṯi
6c wa-yutimmu niʿmata-hū ʿalay-ka wa-ʿalā ʾāli yaʿqūba
6d ka-mā ʾatamma-hā ʿalā ʾabaway-ka min qablu ʾibrāhīma wa-ʾisḥāqa
6e ʾinna rabba-ka ʿalīmun ḥakīmun

Thus thy Lord will prefer thee and will teach thee the interpretation of events, and will perfect His grace upon thee and upon the family of Jacob as He perfected it upon thy forefathers, Abraham and Isaac. Lo! thy Lord is Knower, Wise. 6

你的主這樣揀選你，他教你圓夢，他要完成對你和對葉爾孤白的後裔的恩典，猶如他以前曾完成對你的祖先易卜拉欣和易司哈格的恩典一樣，你的主確是全知的，確是至睿的。

لَّقَدْ كَانَ فِي يُوسُفَ وَإِخْوَتِهِ آيَاتٌ لِّلسَّائِلِينَ

7 la-qad kāna fī yūsufa wa-ʾiḫwati-hī ʾāyātun li-s-sāʾilīna

Verily in Joseph and his brethren are signs (of Allah’s Sovereignty) for the inquiring. 7

在優素福和他哥哥們（的故事）裡，對於詢問者確有許多蹟象。

إِذْ قَالُوا لَيُوسُفُ وَأَخُوهُ أَحَبُّ إِلَىٰ أَبِينَا مِنَّا وَنَحْنُ عُصْبَةٌ إِنَّ أَبَانَا لَفِي ضَلَالٍ مُّبِينٍ

8a ʾiḏ qālū
8b la-yūsufu wa-ʾaḫū-hu ʾaḥabbu ʾilā ʾabī-nā min-nā
8c wa-naḥnu ʿuṣbatun
8d ʾinna ʾabā-nā la-fī ḍalālin mubīnin

When they said: Verily Joseph and his brother are dearer to our father than we are, many though we be. Lo! our father is in plain aberration. 8

當時，他們說：「優素福和他弟弟，在我們的父親看來，是比我們還可愛的，而我們是一個（強壯的）團體，我們的父親確是在明顯的迷誤之中。」

اقْتُلُوا يُوسُفَ أَوِ اطْرَحُوهُ أَرْضًا يَخْلُ لَكُمْ وَجْهُ أَبِيكُمْ وَتَكُونُوا مِن بَعْدِهِ قَوْمًا صَالِحِينَ

9a uqtulū yūsufa
9b ʾawi ṭraḥū-hu ʾarḍan
9c yaḫlu la-kum waǧhu ʾabī-kum
9d wa-takūnū min baʿdi-hī qawman ṣāliḥīna

(One said): Kill Joseph or cast him to some (other) land, so that your father’s favour may be all for you, and (that) ye may afterward be righteous folk. 9

（他們說：）「你們把優素福殺掉，或把他拋棄在荒遠的地方，你們父親的慈愛，就會專歸於你們了，而你們以後還可以成為正直的人。」

قَالَ قَائِلٌ مِّنْهُمْ لَا تَقْتُلُوا يُوسُفَ وَأَلْقُوهُ فِي غَيَابَتِ الْجُبِّ يَلْتَقِطْهُ بَعْضُ السَّيَّارَةِ إِن كُنتُمْ فَاعِلِينَ

10a qāla qāʾilun min-hum
10b lā taqtulū yūsufa
10c wa-ʾalqū-hu fī ġayābati l-ǧubbi
10d yaltaqiṭ-hu baʿḍu s-sayyārati
10e ʾin kuntum fāʿilīna

One among them said: Kill not Joseph but, if ye must be doing, fling him into the depth of the pit; some caravan will find him. 10

他們當中有一個發言人曾說：「你們不要殺死優素福，你們可以把他投入井裡。要是你們那樣做了，一些過路的旅客會把他拾去的。」

قَالُوا يَا أَبَانَا مَا لَكَ لَا تَأْمَنَّا عَلَىٰ يُوسُفَ وَإِنَّا لَهُ لَنَاصِحُونَ

11b mā la-ka
11c lā taʾman-nā ʿalā yūsufa
11d wa-ʾin-nā la-hū la-nāṣiḥūna

They said: O our father! Why wilt thou not trust us with Joseph, when lo! we are good friends to him? 11

他們說：「我們的父親啊！你對於優素福怎麼不信任我們呢？我們對於他確是懷好意的。

أَرْسِلْهُ مَعَنَا غَدًا يَرْتَعْ وَيَلْعَبْ وَإِنَّا لَهُ لَحَافِظُونَ

12a ʾarsil-hu maʿa-nā ġadan
12b yartaʿ
12c wa-yalʿab
12d wa-ʾin-nā la-hū la-ḥāfiẓūna

Send him with us to-morrow that he may enjoy himself and play. And lo! we shall take good care of him. 12

明天，請你讓他和我們一同去娛樂遊戲，我們一定保護他。」

قَالَ إِنِّي لَيَحْزُنُنِي أَن تَذْهَبُوا بِهِ وَأَخَافُ أَن يَأْكُلَهُ الذِّئْبُ وَأَنتُمْ عَنْهُ غَافِلُونَ

13a qāla

13b la-yaḥzunu-nī
13c ʾan taḏhabū bi-hī
13d wa-ʾaḫāfu
13e ʾan yaʾkula-hū ḏ-ḏiʾbu
13f wa-ʾantum ʿan-hu ġāfilūna

He said: Lo! in truth it saddens me that ye should take him with you, and I fear less the wolf devour him while ye are heedless of him. 13

他說：「你們把他帶走，我實在放心不下，我生怕在你們疏忽的時候，狼把他吃了。」

قَالُوا لَئِنْ أَكَلَهُ الذِّئْبُ وَنَحْنُ عُصْبَةٌ إِنَّا إِذًا لَّخَاسِرُونَ

14a qālū
14b la-ʾin ʾakala-hū ḏ-ḏiʾbu
14c wa-naḥnu ʿuṣbatun
14d ʾin-nā ʾiḏan la-ḫāsirūna

They said: If the wolf should devour him when we are (so strong) a band, then surely we should have already perished. 14

他們說：「我們是一個（強壯的）團體，狼卻吃了他，那我們真是該死了。」

فَلَمَّا ذَهَبُوا بِهِ وَأَجْمَعُوا أَن يَجْعَلُوهُ فِي غَيَابَتِ الْجُبِّ وَأَوْحَيْنَا إِلَيْهِ لَتُنَبِّئَنَّهُم بِأَمْرِهِمْ هَٰذَا وَهُمْ لَا يَشْعُرُونَ

15a fa-lammā ḏahabū bi-hī
15b wa-ʾaǧmaʿū
15c ʾan yaǧʿalū-hu fī ġayābati l-ǧubbi
15d wa-ʾawḥaynā ʾilay-hi
15e la-tunabiʾanna-hum bi-ʾamri-him hāḏā
15f wa-hum lā yašʿurūna

Then, when they led him off, and were of one mind that they should place him in the depth of the pit, We inspired in him: Thou wilt tell them of this deed of theirs when they know (thee) not. 15

當他們把他帶走，並且一致決定把他投入井底的時候，我啟示他說：「將來你必定要把他們這件事，在他們不知不覺的時候，告訴他們。」

وَجَاءُوا أَبَاهُمْ عِشَاءً يَبْكُونَ

16a wa-ǧāʾū ʾabā-hum ʿišāʾan
16b yabkūna

And they came weeping to their father in the evening. 16

傍晚，他們哭著來見他們的父親，

قَالُوا يَا أَبَانَا إِنَّا ذَهَبْنَا نَسْتَبِقُ وَتَرَكْنَا يُوسُفَ عِندَ مَتَاعِنَا فَأَكَلَهُ الذِّئْبُ وَمَا أَنتَ بِمُؤْمِنٍ لَّنَا وَلَوْ كُنَّا صَادِقِينَ

17f wa-mā ʾanta bi-muʾminin la-nā
17g wa-law kunnā ṣādiqīna

Saying: O our father! We went racing one with another, and left Joseph by our things, and the wolf devoured him, and thou believest not our saying even when we speak the truth. 17

他們說：「我們的父親啊！我們賽跑時，使優素福留守行李，不料狼把他吃了。你是絕不會相信我們的，即使我們說的是實話。」

وَجَاءُوا عَلَىٰ قَمِيصِهِ بِدَمٍ كَذِبٍ قَالَ بَلْ سَوَّلَتْ لَكُمْ أَنفُسُكُمْ أَمْرًا فَصَبْرٌ جَمِيلٌ وَاللَّهُ الْمُسْتَعَانُ عَلَىٰ مَا تَصِفُونَ

18e wa-llāhu l-mustaʿānu ʿalā mā taṣifūna

And they came with false blood on his shirt. He said: Nay, but your minds have beguiled you into something. (My course is) comely patience. And Allah it is Whose help is to be sought in that (predicament) which ye describe. 18

他們用假血染了優素福的襯衣，拿來給他們的父親看。他說：「不然！你們的私欲慫恿你們幹了這件事；我只有很好地忍耐，對你們所敘述的事，我只能求助於真主！」

وَجَاءَتْ سَيَّارَةٌ فَأَرْسَلُوا وَارِدَهُمْ فَأَدْلَىٰ دَلْوَهُ قَالَ يَا بُشْرَىٰ هَٰذَا غُلَامٌ وَأَسَرُّوهُ بِضَاعَةً وَاللَّهُ عَلِيمٌ بِمَا يَعْمَلُونَ

And there came a caravan, and they sent their waterdrawer. He let down his pail (into the pit). He said: Good luck! Here is a youth. And they hid him as a treasure, and Allah was Aware of what they did. 19

旅客們來了，他們派人去汲水，他把水桶縋下井去，他說：「啊！好消息！這是一個少年。」他們秘密地把他當作貨物，真主是全知他們的行為的。

وَشَرَوْهُ بِثَمَنٍ بَخْسٍ دَرَاهِمَ مَعْدُودَةٍ وَكَانُوا فِيهِ مِنَ الزَّاهِدِينَ

20a wa-šaraw-hu bi-ṯamanin baḫsin darāhima maʿdūdātin
20b wa-kānū fī-hi mina z-zāhidīna

And they sold him for a low price, a number of silver coins; and they attached no value to him. 20

他們以廉價——可數的幾個銀幣——出賣了他，他們是不憐惜他的。

وَقَالَ الَّذِي اشْتَرَاهُ مِن مِّصْرَ لِامْرَأَتِهِ أَكْرِمِي مَثْوَاهُ عَسَىٰ أَن يَنفَعَنَا أَوْ نَتَّخِذَهُ وَلَدًا وَكَذَٰلِكَ مَكَّنَّا لِيُوسُفَ فِي الْأَرْضِ وَلِنُعَلِّمَهُ مِن تَأْوِيلِ الْأَحَادِيثِ وَاللَّهُ غَالِبٌ عَلَىٰ أَمْرِهِ وَلَٰكِنَّ أَكْثَرَ النَّاسِ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ

21a wa-qāla llaḏi štarā-hu min miṣra li-mraʾati-hī

And he of Egypt who purchased him said unto his wife: Receive him honourably. Perchance he may prove useful to us or we may adopt him as a son. Thus we established Joseph in the land that We might teach him the interpretation of events. And Allah was predominant in His career, but most of mankind know not. 21

那購買他的埃及人對自己的妻子說：「你應當優待他，他也許對我們有好處，或者我們撫養他做義子。」我這樣使優素福在大地上獲得地位，以便我教他圓夢。真主對於其事務是自主的，但人們大半不知道。

وَلَمَّا بَلَغَ أَشُدَّهُ آتَيْنَاهُ حُكْمًا وَعِلْمًا وَكَذَٰلِكَ نَجْزِي الْمُحْسِنِينَ

22c wa-ka-ḏālika naǧzī l-muḥsinīna

And when he reached his prime We gave him wisdom and knowledge. Thus We reward the good. 22

當他達到壯年時，我把智慧和學識賞賜他，我這樣報酬行善者。

وَرَاوَدَتْهُ الَّتِي هُوَ فِي بَيْتِهَا عَن نَّفْسِهِ وَغَلَّقَتِ الْأَبْوَابَ وَقَالَتْ هَيْتَ لَكَ قَالَ مَعَاذَ اللَّهِ إِنَّهُ رَبِّي أَحْسَنَ مَثْوَايَ إِنَّهُ لَا يُفْلِحُ الظَّالِمُونَ

And she, in whose house he was, asked of him an evil act. She bolted the doors and said: Come! He said: I seek refuge in Allah! Lo! he is my lord, who hath treated me honourably. Lo! wrong-doers never prosper. 23

他的女主人，把所有的門都緊緊地關閉起來，然後，勾引他說：「快來（擁抱）我啊！」他說：「求真主保祐我！他是我的主，他已優待了我。不義的人必定不會成功。」

وَلَقَدْ هَمَّتْ بِهِ وَهَمَّ بِهَا لَوْلَا أَن رَّأَىٰ بُرْهَانَ رَبِّهِ كَذَٰلِكَ لِنَصْرِفَ عَنْهُ السُّوءَ وَالْفَحْشَاءَ إِنَّهُ مِنْ عِبَادِنَا الْمُخْلَصِينَ

She verily desired him, and he would have desired her if it had not been that he saw the argument of his Lord. Thus it was, that We might ward off from him evil and lewdness. Lo! he was of Our chosen slaves. 24

她確已嚮往他，他也嚮往她，要不是他看見他的主的明証。我這樣為他排除罪惡和醜事，他確是我的一個忠實的僕人。

وَاسْتَبَقَا الْبَابَ وَقَدَّتْ قَمِيصَهُ مِن دُبُرٍ وَأَلْفَيَا سَيِّدَهَا لَدَى الْبَابِ قَالَتْ مَا جَزَاءُ مَنْ أَرَادَ بِأَهْلِكَ سُوءًا إِلَّا أَن يُسْجَنَ أَوْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ

And they raced with one another to the door, and she tore his shirt from behind, and they met her lord and master at the door. She said: What shall be his reward, who wisheth evil to thy folk, save prison or a painful doom? 25

他倆爭先恐後地奔向大門。那時她已把他的襯衣從後面撕破了，他倆在大門口遇見她的丈夫，她說：「想奸污你的眷屬者，他的報酬只有監禁或痛懲。」

قَالَ هِيَ رَاوَدَتْنِي عَن نَّفْسِي وَشَهِدَ شَاهِدٌ مِّنْ أَهْلِهَا إِن كَانَ قَمِيصُهُ قُدَّ مِن قُبُلٍ فَصَدَقَتْ وَهُوَ مِنَ الْكَاذِبِينَ

(Joseph) said: She it was who asked of me an evil act. And a witness of her own folk testified: If his shirt is torn from before, then she speaketh truth and he is of the liars. 26

他說：「是她勾引我。」她家裡的一個人作証說：「如果他的襯衣是從前面撕破的，那她說的是實話，而他是說謊的；

وَإِن كَانَ قَمِيصُهُ قُدَّ مِن دُبُرٍ فَكَذَبَتْ وَهُوَ مِنَ الصَّادِقِينَ

27a wa-ʾin kāna qamīṣu-hū qudda min duburin
27b fa-kaḏabat
27c wa-huwa mina ṣ-ṣādiqīna

And if his shirt is torn from behind, then she hath lied and he is of the truthful. 27

如果他的襯衣是從後面撕破的，那末她已說了謊話，而他說的是實話。」

فَلَمَّا رَأَىٰ قَمِيصَهُ قُدَّ مِن دُبُرٍ قَالَ إِنَّهُ مِن كَيْدِكُنَّ إِنَّ كَيْدَكُنَّ عَظِيمٌ

So when he saw his shirt torn from behind, he said: Lo! this is of the guile of you women. Lo! the guile of you is very great. 28

當他看見他的襯衣是從後面撕破的時候，他說：「這確是你們的詭計，你們的詭計確是重大的。」

يُوسُفُ أَعْرِضْ عَنْ هَٰذَا وَاسْتَغْفِرِي لِذَنبِكِ إِنَّكِ كُنتِ مِنَ الْخَاطِئِينَ

O Joseph! Turn away from this, and thou, (O woman), ask forgiveness for thy sin. Lo! thou art of the faulty. 29

（又說）：「優素福，你避開此事吧！（我的妻子，）你為你的罪過而求饒吧，你原是錯誤的！」

وَقَالَ نِسْوَةٌ فِي الْمَدِينَةِ امْرَأَتُ الْعَزِيزِ تُرَاوِدُ فَتَاهَا عَن نَّفْسِهِ قَدْ شَغَفَهَا حُبًّا إِنَّا لَنَرَاهَا فِي ضَلَالٍ مُّبِينٍ

And women in the city said: The ruler’s wife is asking of her slave-boy an ill-deed. Indeed he has smitten her to the heart with love. We behold her in plain aberration. 30

都城裡的一些婦女說：「權貴的妻子勾引她的僕人，他迷惑了她，我們認為她確是在明顯的迷誤之中的。」

فَلَمَّا سَمِعَتْ بِمَكْرِهِنَّ أَرْسَلَتْ إِلَيْهِنَّ وَأَعْتَدَتْ لَهُنَّ مُتَّكَأً وَآتَتْ كُلَّ وَاحِدَةٍ مِّنْهُنَّ سِكِّينًا وَقَالَتِ اخْرُجْ عَلَيْهِنَّ فَلَمَّا رَأَيْنَهُ أَكْبَرْنَهُ وَقَطَّعْنَ أَيْدِيَهُنَّ وَقُلْنَ حَاشَ لِلَّهِ مَا هَٰذَا بَشَرًا إِنْ هَٰذَا إِلَّا مَلَكٌ كَرِيمٌ

And when she heard of their sly talk, she sent to them and prepared for them a cushioned couch (to lie on at the feast) and gave to every one of them a knife and said (to Joseph): Come out unto them! And when they saw him they exalted him and cut their hands, exclaiming: Allah Blameless! This is no a human being. This is not other than some gracious angel. 31

她聽到了她們狡猾的流言蜚語，就派人去把她們邀請來，並為她們預備了一桌席，發給她們每人一把小刀，她（對優素福）說：「你出去見見她們吧。」當她們看見他的時候，她們讚揚了他，（她們都被迷住了），以致餐刀割傷了自己的手。她們說：「啊呀！這不是一個凡夫，而是一位高潔的天神。」

She said: This is he on whose account ye blamed me. I asked of him an evil act, but he proved continent, but if he do not my behest he verily shall be imprisoned, and verily shall be of those brought low. 32

她說：「這就是你們為他而責備我的那個人。我確已勾引他，但他潔身自好。如果他再不聽從我的命令，他勢必要坐牢，他勢必成為自甘下賤的人。」

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. 33

他說：「我的主啊！我寧願坐牢，也不願響應她們的召喚。如果你不為我排除她們的詭計，我將依戀她們，我將變成愚人。」

他的主就答應了他，並且為他排除了她們的詭計。他確是全聰的，確是全知的。

And it seemed good to them (the men-folk) after they had seen the signs (of his innocence) to imprison him for a time. 35

他們看見了許多蹟象之後，覺得必須把他監禁一個時期。

And two young men went to prison with him. One of them said: I dreamed that I was pressing wine. The other said: I dreamed that I was carrying upon my head bread whereof the birds were eating. Announce unto us the interpretation, for we see thee of those good (at interpretation). 36

有兩個青年和他一同入獄，這個說：「我確已夢見我榨葡萄汁（釀酒）。」那個說：「我確已夢見我的頭上頂著一個大餅，眾鳥飛來啄食。請你替我們圓夢，我們的確認為你是行善的。」

他說：「無論誰送甚麼食物給你倆之前，我能告訴你們送的是甚麼。這是我的主教給我的。有一個民族不信仰真主，不信仰後世，我確已拋棄他們的宗教。

And I have followed the religion of my fathers, Abraham and Isaac and Jacob. It never was for us to attribute aught as partner to Allah. This is of the bounty of Allah unto us (the seed of Abraham) and unto mankind; but most men give not thanks. 38

我遵循我的祖先——易卜拉欣、易司哈格、葉爾孤白的宗教。我們不該以任何物配真主，這是真主施於我們和世人的恩惠，但世人大半不感謝。

Those whom ye worship beside Him are but names which ye have named, ye and your fathers. Allah hath revealed no sanction for them. The decision rests with Allah only, Who hath commanded you that ye worship none save Him. This is the right religion, but most men know not. 40

你們捨真主而崇拜的，只是你們和你們的祖先所定的一些（偶像的）名稱，真主並未加以証實，一切判決只歸真主。他命令你們只崇拜他。這才是正教。但世人大半不知道。

同監的兩位朋友啊！你們倆中有一個要替他的主人斟酒，有一個要被釘死在十字架上，而眾鳥飛到他的頭上來吃他。你倆所詢問的事情，已被判決了。」

And he said unto him of the twain who he knew would be released: Mention me in the presence of thy lord. But Satan caused him to forget to mention it to his lord, so he (Joseph) stayed in prison for some years. 42

他對兩人中預料將會獲釋的人說：「請你在你主人面前替我申冤。」但惡魔使他忘記在他主人面前替優素福申冤，以至他在監裡坐了幾年。

「優素福，忠實的人呀！請你為我們圓圓這個夢，七頭胖黃牛，被七頭瘦黃牛吃掉了，又有七穗青麥子，和七穗乾麥子。我好回去告訴人們，讓他們知道這個夢的意義。」

他說：「你們要連種七年，凡你們所收獲的麥子，都讓它存在穗子上，只把你們所吃的少量的麥子打下來。

ثُمَّ يَأْتِي مِن بَعْدِ ذَٰلِكَ سَبْعٌ شِدَادٌ يَأْكُلْنَ مَا قَدَّمْتُمْ لَهُنَّ إِلَّا قَلِيلًا مِّمَّا تُحْصِنُونَ

國王說：「你們勾引優素福的時候，你們的實情是甚麼？」她們說：「啊呀！我們不知道他有一點罪過。」權貴的妻子說：「現在真相大白了，是我勾引他，他確是誠實的人。」

後世的報酬，對於信道而且敬畏的人，將是更好的。

And Joseph’s brethren came and presented themselves before him, and he knew them but they knew him not. 58

優素福的哥哥們來了，他們進去見他。他認出了他們，而他們卻沒有認出他。

وَلَمَّا جَهَّزَهُم بِجَهَازِهِمْ قَالَ ائْتُونِي بِأَخٍ لَّكُم مِّنْ أَبِيكُمْ أَلَا تَرَوْنَ أَنِّي أُوفِي الْكَيْلَ وَأَنَا خَيْرُ الْمُنزِلِينَ

And when he provided them with their provision he said: Bring unto me a brother of yours from your father. See ye not that I fill up the measure and I am the best of hosts? 59

當他以他們所需的糧食供給他們之後，他說：「你們把你們同父的弟弟帶來見我吧！難道你們不見我把足量的糧食給你們，而且我是最好的東道主嗎？

فَإِن لَّمْ تَأْتُونِي بِهِ فَلَا كَيْلَ لَكُمْ عِندِي وَلَا تَقْرَبُونِ

如果你們不帶他來見我，你們就不能從我這裡購買一顆糧食，你們也不得臨近我。」

他們說：「我們要懇求他父親允許我們帶他來見你，我們必定這樣做。」

He said unto his young men: Place their merchandise in their saddlebags, so that they may know it when they go back to their folk, and so will come again. 62

他對他的僮僕們說：「你們把他們的財物放在他們的糧袋裡，他們回去的時候也許會認出這些財物，也許會再來一趟。」

فَلَمَّا رَجَعُوا إِلَىٰ أَبِيهِمْ قَالُوا يَا أَبَانَا مُنِعَ مِنَّا الْكَيْلُ فَأَرْسِلْ مَعَنَا أَخَانَا نَكْتَلْ وَإِنَّا لَهُ لَحَافِظُونَ

So when they went back to their father they said: O our father! The measure is denied us, so send with us our brother that we may obtain the measure, surely we will guard him well. 63

他們回去見了他們的父親，說：「我們的父親啊！人家不准我們再糴糧了，請你派我們的弟弟和我們一同去，我們就能糴糧；我們一定把他保護好。」

He said: Can I entrust him to you save as I entrusted his brother to you aforetime? Allah is better at guarding, and He is the Most Merciful of those who show mercy. 64

他說：「對於他我能信任你們，正如以前對於他哥哥我信任你們一樣嗎？真主是最善於保護的，也是最慈愛的。」

And when they opened their belongings they discovered that their merchandise had been returned to them. They said: O our father! What (more) can we ask? Here is our merchandise returned to us. We shall get provision for our folk and guard our brother, and we shall have the extra measure of a camel (load). This (that we bring now) is a light measure. 65

當他們打開自己的糧袋的時候，發現他們的財物已退還他們了，他們說：「我們的父親啊！我們還要求甚麼呢？這是我們的財物，已退還我們了，我們要為我們的眷屬糴糧，要保護我們的弟弟，我們可以多糴一馱糧，那是容易獲得的糧食。」

He said: I will not send him with you till ye give me an undertaking in the name of Allah that ye will bring him back to me, unless ye are surrounded. And when they gave him their undertaking he said: Allah is the Warden over what we say. 66

他說：「我不派他和你們一同去，直到你們指真主而和我立誓約，你們誓必帶他回來見我，除非你們全遭禍患。」當他們和他立誓約的時候，他說：「真主是監察我們的誓約的。」

And he said: O my sons! Go not in by one gate; go in by different gates. I can naught avail you as against Allah. Lo! the decision rests with Allah only. In Him do I put my trust, and in Him let all the trusting put their trust. 67

他說：「我的孩子們，不要從一道城門進城，應當分散開，從幾道城門進去。我對於真主的（判決），毫無裨益於你們；一切判決只歸真主，我只信賴他，讓一切信賴者都只信賴他吧！」

And when they entered in the manner which their father had enjoined, it would have naught availed them as against Allah; it was but a need of Jacob’s soul which he thus satisfied; and lo! he was a lord of knowledge because We had taught him; but most of mankind know not. 68

當他們遵照他們父親的命令而進城的時候，他對於真主的判決沒有絲毫裨益，但那是葉爾孤白心中的一種希望。他已把它表白出來。他曾受我的教誨，所以他確是有知識的，但世人大半不知道。

當他們進去見優素福的時候，他擁抱他弟弟，他說：「我確是你哥哥，你不要為他們過去的所作所為而悲傷吧。」

And when he provided them with their provision, he put the drinking-cup in his brother’s saddlebag, and then a crier cried: O camel-riders! Lo! ye are surely thieves! 70

當地以他們所需的糧食供給他們的時候，他（使人）把一隻酒杯放在他弟弟的糧袋裡，然後一個傳喚者傳喚說：「隊商啊！你們確是一伙小偷。」

他們說：「偷竊者應受的處罰，是在誰的糧袋裡搜出酒杯來，就把誰當做奴僕。我們是這樣懲罰不義者的。」

Then he (Joseph) began the search with their bags before his brother’s bag, then he produced it from his brother’s bag. Thus did We contrive for Joseph. He could not have taken his brother according to the king’s law unless Allah willed. We raise by grades (of mercy) whom We will, and over every lord of knowledge there is one more knowing. 76

優素福在檢查他弟弟的糧袋之前，先檢查了他們的糧袋。隨後，在他弟弟的糧袋裡查出了那隻酒杯。我這樣為優素福定計。按照國王的法律，他不得把他弟弟當作奴僕，但真主意欲他那樣做。我把我所意欲者提升若干級，每個有知識的人上面，都有一個全知者。

They said: If he stealeth, a brother of his stole before. But Joseph kept it secret in his soul and revealed it not unto them. He said (within himself): Ye are in worse case, and Allah knoweth best (the truth of) that which ye allege. 77

他們說：「如果他偷竊，那末，他有一個哥哥從前就偷竊過。」優素福把這句話隱藏在心中，沒有對他們表示出來，他暗暗他說：「你們的處境是更惡劣的。真主是知道你們所敘述的事情的。」

Therefore I shall not go forth from the land until my father giveth leave or Allah judgeth for me. He is the Best of Judges. 80

當他們對優素福絕望的時候，他們離席而密秘會議，他們的大哥說：「你們的父親曾要求你們指真主發誓，難道你們不知道嗎？從前，你們曾怠慢了優素福。我絕不離開這個地方，直到父親允許我，或真主為我而判決，他是最公正的判決者。

Go, O my sons, and ascertain concerning Joseph and his brother, and despair not of the Spirit of Allah. Lo! none despaireth of the Spirit of Allah save disbelieving folk. 87

他說：「我的孩子們！你們去打聽優素福和他弟弟的消息吧。你們不要絕望於真主的慈恩，只有不信道的人們才絕望於真主的慈恩。」

And when they came (again) before him (Joseph) they said: O ruler! Misfortune hath touched us and our folk, and we bring but poor merchandise, so fill for us the measure and be charitable unto us. Lo! Allah will requite the charitable, 88

They said: Is it indeed thou who art Joseph? He said: I am Joseph and this is my brother. Allah hath shown us favour. Lo! he who wardeth off (evil) and endureth (findeth favour); for lo! Allah loseth not the wages of the kindly. 90

他們說：「怎麼，你呀！真是優素福嗎？」他說：「我是優素福，這是我弟弟，真主確已降恩給我們。誰敬畏而且堅忍，（誰必受報酬），因為真主必不使行善者徒勞無酬。」

And he placed his parents on the dais and they fell down before him prostrate, and he said: O my father! This is the interpretation of my dream of old. My Lord hath made it true, and He hath shown me kindness, since He took me out of the prison and hath brought you from the desert after Satan had made strife between me and my brethren. Lo! my Lord is tender unto whom He will. He is the Knower, the Wise. 100

他請他的雙親坐在高座上，他們為他而俯伏叩頭，他說：「我的父親啊！這就是我以前的夢兆的解釋。我的主已使那個夢兆變成為事實了。他確已優待我，因為他把我從監獄裡釋放出來，他在惡魔離間我和我哥哥們之後，把你們從沙漠裡帶到這裡來。我的主，對他所意欲者確是慈愛的。他確是全知的，確是至睿的。
