But if it gets known that these two were guilty of the sin (of perjury), let two others stand forth in their places,- nearest in kin from among those who claim a lawful right: let them swear by Allah: "We affirm that our witness is truer than that of those two, and that we have not trespassed (beyond the truth): if we did, behold! the wrong be upon us!"
و هرگاه معلوم شود كه آن دو شاهد مرتكب گناه خيانت شده‌اند، دو شاهد ديگر كه اولى‌تر از آن دو باشند جاى ايشان را بگيرند. آن دو به خدا قسم خورند كه شهادت ما از شهادت آن دو درست‌تر است و ما از حق تجاوز نكنيم، هرگاه چنين كنيم از ستمكاران باشيم.
