URV
18. تاکہ دو بے تبدِیل چِیزوں کے باعِث جِن کے بارے میں خُدا کا جھُوٹ بولنا مُمکِن نہِیں ہماری پُختہ طَور سے دِلجمِعی ہو جائے جو پناہ لینے کو اِس لِئے دَوڑے ہیں کہ اُس اُمِید کو جو سامنے رکھّی ہُوئی قبضہ میں لائیں۔
IRVUR
18. ग़रज़, यह दो बातें क़ाईम रही हैं, ख़ुदा का वादा और उस की क़सम। वह इन्हें न तो बदलेगा न इन के बारे में झूठ बोलेगा। यूँ हम जिन्हों ने उस के पास पनाह ली है बड़ी तसल्ली पा कर उस उम्मीद को मज़बूती से थामे रख सकते हैं जो हमें पेश की गई है।
