قَالُوا۟ تَٱللَّهِ لَقَدْ ءَاثَرَكَ ٱللَّهُ عَلَيْنَا وَإِن كُنَّا لَخَـٰطِـِٔينَ
Q a loo ta A ll a hi laqad a tharaka All a hu AAalayn a wain kunn a lakh at ieen a
[The brothers] said: "By God! Most certainly has God raised thee high above us, and we were indeed but sinners!"
  - Mohammad Asad
They said: "By Allah! Certainly Allah has preferred you over us. We have indeed been guilty."
  - Muhammad Farooq-i-Azam Malik
They admitted, 'By Allah! Allah has truly preferred you over us, and we have surely been sinful.'
  - Mustafa Khattab
They said: By Allah, verily Allah hath preferred thee above us, and we were indeed sinful.
  - Marmaduke Pickthall
They said: "By Allah! indeed has Allah preferred thee above us and we certainly have been guilty of sin!" 1767
  - Abdullah Yusuf Ali

The scales fall from the eyes of the brothers. We may suppose that they had joined Judah at this interview, and perhaps what Judah had seen when he was alone helped in the process of their enlightenment, They are convicted of sin out of their own mouths, and now there is no arrier pensee, no reserve thought, in their minds. They freely confess their wrong-doing, and the justice of Joseph's preferment.
