1: And JosephH3130 had been taken downH3381 to Egypt-H4714 and bought himH7069 Potiphar,H6318 an officerH5631 of Pharaoh,H6547 captainH8269 of the guard,H2876 -H0376 an Egyptian,H4713 from theH3027 Ishmaelites,H3459 whoH0834 had taken him downH3381 there.H8033

2: And wasH1961 YahwehH3068 withH0854 Joseph,H3130 and he wasH1961 a manH0582 successful,H6743 and he wasH1961 in the houseH1004 of his masterH0113 the Egyptian.H4713

3: And sawH7200 his masterH0113 thatH3588 Yahweh [was]H3068 with him,H0854 and allH3605 thatH0834 heH1931 didH6213 YahwehH3068 made to prosperH6743 in his hand.H3027

4: So foundH4672 JosephH3130 favorH2580 in his sight,H5869 and servedH8334 him,H0853 and he made him overseerH6485 ofH5921 his house,H1004 and allH3605 [that] he hadH3426 he putH5414 in his hand.H3027

5: So it wasH1961 from then [on]H0227 he made overseerH6485 himH0853 of his house,H1004 andH5921 allH3605 thatH0834 hadH3426 and blessedH1288 YahwehH3068 -H0853 houseH1004 of the EgyptianH4713 on account ofH1558 Joseph,H3130 and wasH1961 the blessingH1293 of YahwehH3068 on allH3605 thatH0834 hadH3426 in the house,H1004 and in the field.H7704

6: Thus he leftH5800 allH3605 thatH0834 in handH3027 of Joseph-H3130 and notH3808 concernsH3045 himselfH0854 with anythingH3972 exceptH3588 forH0518 the breadH3899 whichH0834 heH1931 ate.H0398 And wasH1961 JosephH3130 handsome,H3303 in formH8389 and handsomeH3303 in appearance.H4758

7: And it came to passH1961 afterH0310 thingsH1697 these,H0428 that castH5375 the wifeH0802 of his masterH0113 -H0853 her eyesH5869 onH0413 Joseph-H3130 and she said,H0559 LieH7901 with me.H5973

8: But he refused,H3985 and saidH0559 toH0413 the wifeH0802 of his master,H0113 behold,H2005 my masterH0113 notH3808 does concernH3045 with meH0854 what [is]H4100 in the house,H1004 and allH3605 thatH0834 hasH3426 he has committedH5414 to my hand.H3027

9: [There is] no oneH0369 greaterH1419 in houseH1004 thisH2088 than I-H4480 norH3808 has he kept backH2820 from meH4480 anythingH3972 exceptH3588 ifH0518 you,H0853 becauseH0834 you [are]H0859 his wife.H0802 Then howH0349 can I doH6213 wickednessH7451 greatH1419 this,H2063 and sinH2398 against God?H0430

10: so it was,H1961 as she spokeH1696 toH0413 JosephH3130 dayH3117 by day,H3117 that notH3808 he did heedH8085 herH0413 to lieH7901 with herH0681 [or] to beH1961 with her.H5973

11: But it came to passH1961 about timeH3117 this,H2088 that when Joseph wentH0935 into the houseH1004 to doH6213 his work-H4399 and notH0369 a singleH0376 of the menH0376 of the houseH1004 [was] thereH8033 inside.H1004

12: That she caught himH8610 by his garment,H0899 saying,H0559 LieH7901 with me!H5973 but he leftH5800 his garmentH0899 in her hand,H3027 and fled,H5127 and ranH3318 outside.H2351

13: And so it was,H1961 when she sawH7200 thatH3588 he had leftH5800 his garmentH0899 in her hand,H3027 and fledH5127 outside,H2351

14: that she calledH7121 to the menH0376 of her house,H1004 and spokeH0559 saying,H0559 Look,H7200 he has brought inH0935 a manH0376 HebrewH5680 to mockH6711 He came inH0935 to meH0413 to lieH7901 with me,H5973 and I cried outH7121 in a voiceH6963 loud.H1419

15: And it came to pass,H1961 when he heardH8085 thatH3588 I liftedH7311 my voiceH6963 and cried out,H7121 that he leftH5800 his garmentH0899 with meH0681 and fled,H5127 and wentH3318 outside.H2351

16: So she keptH3240 his garmentH0899 with her,H0681 untilH5704 cameH0935 his masterH0113 toH0413 home.H1004

17: And she spokeH1696 to himH0413 with wordsH1697 like these,H0428 saying,H0559 came inH0935 to meH0413 servantH5650 the Hebrew,H5680 whomH0834 you broughtH0935 to mockH6711

18: So it came to pass,H1961 as I liftedH7311 my voiceH6963 and cried out,H7121 that he leftH5800 his garmentH0899 with meH0681 and fledH5127 outside.H2351

19: So it was,H1961 when heardH8085 his masterH0113 -H0853 the wordsH1697 of his wife,H0802 whichH0834 she spokeH1696 to him,H0413 saying,H0559 mannerH1697 after thisH0428 didH6213 your servant,H5650 and was kindledH2734 his wrath.H0639

20: And tookH3947 the masterH0113 of JosephH3130 him,H0853 and put himH5414 intoH0413 the houseH1004 of imprisonment,H5470 a placeH4725 whereH0834 prisonersH0631 of the kingH4428 [were] confined,H0631 and he wasH1961 thereH8033 inH1004 the prison.H5470

21: But wasH1961 YahwehH3068 withH0854 Joseph,H3130 and showedH5186 himH0413 mercy,H2617 and gave himH5414 favorH2580 in the sightH5869 of the keeperH8269 ofH1004 the prison.H5470

22: And committedH5414 the keeperH8269 ofH1004 the prisonH5470 into the handH3027 of JosephH3130 -H0853 allH3605 the prisonersH0615 who [were]H0834 inH1004 the prison-H5470 andH0853 allH3605 thatH0834 they didH6213 there,H8033 itH1931 wasH1961 his doing.H6213

23: NotH0369 the keeperH8269 ofH1004 the prisonH5470 concerned himselfH7200 -H0853 with allH3605 thingsH3972 in his hand,H3027 becauseH0834 YahwehH3068 was with him,H0854 and whateverH0834 heH1931 did,H6213 YahwehH3068 made [it] prosper.H6743
