- خود گرفته ستت تو چون کفتار کور ** این گرفتن را نبینی از غرور
- They (the hunters) are saying, "The hyena is not in this place; look for him outside, for he is not in the cave."
- میگوند این جایگه کفتار نیست ** از برون جویید کاندر غار نیست
- If the enemy had known of me, how should he have exclaimed, "Where is that hyena'?"
- این همیگویند و بندش مینهند ** او همیگوید ز من بیآگهند
- گر ز من آگاه بودی این عدو ** کی ندا کردی که آن کفتار کو
- The statement of a certain individual that God most High would not punish him for sin, and Shu‘ayb’s answer to him.
- دعویکردن آن شخص که خدای تعالی مرا نمیگیرد به گناه و جواب گفتن شعیب علیه السلام مر او را
- In the time of Shu‘ayb a certain man was saying, “God hath seen many a fault from me.
- آن یکی میگفت در عهد شعیب ** که خدا از من بسی دیده ست عیب

- چند دید از من گناه و جرمها ** و ز کرم یزدان نمیگیرد مرا
- In answer to him God most High by the mysterious way spoke clearly into the ear of Shu‘ayb,

- Saying, “(Tell him), Thou hast said, ‘How many sins have I committed! And (still) God in His kindness hath not punished me for my trespasses.’
- که بگفتی چند کردم من گناه ** و ز کرم نگرفت در جرمم اله

- عکس میگویی و مقلوب ای سفیه ** ای رها کرده ره و بگرفته تیه
- How oft, how oft do I chastise thee, and thou unaware! Thou art lying (bound) in chains from head to foot.
- چند چندت گیرم و تو بیخبر ** در سلاسل ماندهای پا تا به سر
