Ahmed Raza Khan: Mohammed Aqib Qadri:
When the caravan left Egypt, their father said *, "Indeed I sense the fragrance of Yusuf, if you do not call me senile." (* Prophet Yaqub said this in Palestine, to other members of his family. He could discern the fragrance of Prophet Yusuf’s shirt from far away.)

Yusuf Ali:
When the caravan left (Egypt), their father said: "I do indeed scent the presence of Joseph: Nay, think me not a dotard."

Pickthal:
When the caravan departed their father had said: Truly I am conscious of the breath of Joseph, though ye call me dotard.
