  • حواله کردن پادشاه قبول و توبه‌ی نمامان و حجره گشایان و سزا دادن ایشان با ایاز کی یعنی این جنایت بر عرض او رفته است

  • Inasmuch as the King makes one who is accused (rich as) Qárún (Korah), consider how He will act towards one who is innocent.

  • Here who shall recklessly intercede with His knowledge— (who) except His forbearance?
  • من هنا یشفع به پیش علم او  ** لا ابالی‌وار الا حلم او 

  • The sin arises at first from His forbearance; otherwise, how should His awful majesty give (any) room for it (to arise)? 2100
