Sura Yusuf from 70 to 78


70. So when he had furnished them forth with their provisions, he put the ( golden ) bowl in his brother’s bag. Then a crier cried: « O you ( in ) the caravan! Surely, you are thieves! »
71. They, turning towards them, said: « What is it that you have lost? »
72. They said: « We have lost the ( golden ) bowl of the king and for him who produces it is ( the reward of ) a camel load; and I will be bound by it. »
73. They said: « By Allâh! Indeed you know that we came not to make mischief in the land, and we are no thieves! »
74. They [ Yûsuf’s ( Joseph ) men ] said: « What then shall be the penalty of him, if you are ( proved to be ) liars. »
75. They [ Yûsuf’s ( Joseph ) brothers ] said: « His penalty should be that he, in whose bag it is found, should be held for the punishment ( of the crime ) . Thus we punish the Zâlimûn ( wrong- doers ) ! »
76. So he [ Yûsuf ( Joseph ) ] began ( the search ) in their bags before the bag of his brother. Then he brought it out of his brother’s bag. Thus did We plan for Yûsuf ( Joseph ) . He could not take his brother by the law of the king ( as a slave ) , except that Allâh willed it. ( So Allâh made the brothers to bind themselves with their way of « punishment, i.e. enslaving of a thief. » ) We raise to degrees whom We will, but over all those endowed with knowledge is the All- Knowing ( Allâh ) .
77. They [ ( Yûsuf’s ( Joseph ) brothers ] said: « If he steals, there was a brother of his [ Yûsuf ( Joseph ) ] who did steal before ( him ) . » But these things did Yûsuf ( Joseph ) keep in himself, revealing not the secrets to them. He said ( within himself ) : « You are in worst case, and Allâh is the Best Knower of that which you describe! »
78. They said: « O ruler of the land! Verily, he has an old father ( who will grieve for him ) ; so take one of us in his place. Indeed we think that you are one of the Muhsinûn ( good- doers - see the footnote of V.9:120 ) . »
