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 Muhsinun (good-doers - see V. 2:112)."
Wakasema: Ewe Mheshimiwa! Huyu anaye baba mzee sana. Kwa hivyo mchukue mmoja wetu badala yake. Hakika sisi tunakuona wewe ni katika watu wema.
