[Dawud (David)] said (immediately without listening to the opponent): "He has wronged you in demanding your ewe in addition to his ewes. And, verily, many partners oppress one another, except those who believe and do righteous good deeds, and they are few." And Dawud (David) guessed that We have tried him and he sought Forgiveness of his Lord, and he fell down prostrate and turned (to Allah) in repentance.
داود گفت: او كه ميش تو را از تو مى‌خواهد تا به ميشهاى خويش بيفزايد بر تو ستم مى‌كند. و بسيارى از شريكان جز كسانى كه ايمان آورده‌اند و كارهاى شايسته كرده‌اند -و اينان نيز اندك هستند- بر يكديگر ستم مى‌كنند. و داود دانست كه او را آزموده‌ايم. پس از پروردگارش آمرزش خواست و به ركوع درافتاد و توبه كرد.
