قَالَ إِنِّي لَيَحۡزُنُنِيٓ أَن تَذۡهَبُواْ بِهِۦ وَأَخَافُ أَن يَأۡكُلَهُ ٱلذِّئۡبُ وَأَنتُمۡ عَنۡهُ غَٰفِلُونَ ١٣

قَالَ اِنِّيْ لَيَحْزُنُنِيْٓ اَنْ تَذْهَبُوْا بِهٖ وَاَخَافُ اَنْ يَّاْكُلَهُ الذِّي͏ٔ͏ْبُ وَاَنْتُمْ عَنْهُ غٰفِلُوْنَ ۝١٣

[Jacob] said, "Indeed, it saddens me that you should take him, and I fear that a wolf would eat him while you are of him unaware."

قَالُواْ لَئِنۡ أَكَلَهُ ٱلذِّئۡبُ وَنَحۡنُ عُصۡبَةٌ إِنَّآ إِذٗا لَّخَٰسِرُونَ ١٤

قَالُوْا لَىِٕنْ اَكَلَهُ الذِّي͏ٔ͏ْبُ وَنَحْنُ عُصْبَةٌ اِنَّا͏ٓ اِذًا لَّخٰسِرُوْنَ ۝١٤

They said, "If a wolf should eat him while we are a [strong] clan, indeed, we would then be losers."

قَالُواْ يَٰٓأَبَانَآ إِنَّا ذَهَبۡنَا نَسۡتَبِقُ وَتَرَكۡنَا يُوسُفَ عِندَ مَتَٰعِنَا فَأَكَلَهُ ٱلذِّئۡبُۖ وَمَآ أَنتَ بِمُؤۡمِنٖ لَّنَا وَلَوۡ كُنَّا صَٰدِقِينَ ١٧

قَالُوْا يٰٓاَبَانَا͏ٓ اِنَّا ذَهَبْنَا نَسْتَبِقُ وَتَرَكْنَا يُوْسُفَ عِنْدَ مَتَاعِنَا فَاَكَلَهُ الذِّي͏ٔ͏ْبُۚ وَمَا͏ٓ اَنْتَ بِمُو͏ٔ͏ْمِنٍ لَّنَا وَلَوْ كُنَّا صٰدِقِيْنَ ۝١٧

They said, "O our father, indeed we went racing each other and left Joseph with our possessions, and a wolf ate him. But you would not believe us, even if we were truthful."
