I am thy (own) brother; so grieve not at aught of their doings." 69 So when he had furnished them forth with their provisions, he put the (golden) bowl into his brother's bag, then a crier cried: "O you (in) the caravan! Surely, you are thieves!" 70 They, turning towards them, said: "What is it that you have missed?" 71 The officials said: "We have lost the king's cup."
