ذَلِكَ

لِيَعْلَمَ

أَنِّي

لَمْ

أَخُنْهُ

بِالْغَيْبِ

وَأَنَّ

اللَّهَ

لَا

يَهْدِي

كَيْدَ

الْخَائِنِينَ

"This (say I), in order that He may know that I have never been false to him in his absence, and that Allah will never guide the snare of the false ones.

Abdullah Yusufali

[Joseph said], [‘I initiated] this [inquiry], that he may know that I did not betray him in his absence, and that Allah does not further the schemes of the treacherous.’
