A caravan happened to pass, and sent the water-carrier to bring water from the well. He let down his bucket (and pulled Joseph up with it). "What luck," said the man; "here is a boy;" and they hid him as an item of merchandise; but what they did was known to God.
و كاروانى بيامد، پس آب‌آورشان را فرستادند، و او دلو خويش [در چاه‌] فروانداخت گفت: اى مژدگان! اين پسرى است. و او را همچون كالايى [براى فروش‌] پنهان ساختند، و خدا به آنچه مى‌كردند دانا بود.
