1Now Joseph had been brought down to Egypt, and Potiphar, a court official of Pharaoh, commander of the guard, an Egyptian, bought him from the hand of the Ishmaelites who had brought him down there.
2And Yahweh was with Joseph, and he became a successful man. And he was in the house of his master, the Egyptian.
3And his master observed that Yahweh was with him, and everything that was in his hand to do Yahweh made successful.
4And Joseph found favor in his eyes and he served him. Then he appointed him over his house and all that he owned he put into his hand.[#That is, Joseph]
5And it happened that from the time he appointed him over his house and over all that he had, Yahweh blessed the house of the Egyptian on account of Joseph. And the blessing of Yahweh was upon all that he had in the house and in the field.
6And he left all that he had in the hand of Joseph, and he did not worry about anything except the food that he ate. Now Joseph was well built and handsome.[#Literally “he did not know with him anything”; #Literally “beautiful of form and beautiful of appearance”]
7And it happened that after these things his master’s wife cast her eyes on Joseph, and she said, “Lie with me.”
8But he refused and said to his master’s wife, “Look, my master does not worry about what is in the house, and everything he owns he has put in my hand.[#Literally “does not know with me”]
9He has no greater authority in this house than me, and he has not withheld anything from me except you, since you are his wife. Now how could I do this great wickedness and sin against God?”
10And it happened that as she spoke to Joseph day after day, he did not heed her to lie beside her or to be with her.[#Literally “day, day”]
11But one particular day he came into the house to do his work and none of the men of the house were there in the house,[#Literally “and it happened as this day”]
12she seized him by his garment and said, “Lie with me!” And he left his garment in her hand and fled, and he went outside.
13And it happened that when she saw that he left his garment in her hand and fled outside,
14she called to the men of her house and said to them, “Look! He brought a Hebrew man to us to mock us! He came to me to lie with me, and I cried out with a loud voice.[#That is, Potiphar]
15And when he heard me, that I raised my voice and called out, he left his garment beside me and fled, and he went outside.”
16Then she put his garment beside her until his master came to his house.
17Then she spoke to him according to these words, saying, “The Hebrew slave that you brought to us came to me to make fun of me.
18And it happened that as I raised my voice and called out, he left his garment beside me and fled outside.”
19And when his master heard the words of his wife that she spoke to him, “This is what your servant did to me,” he became very angry.[#Literally “according to these words your servant did to me”; #Literally “his nostrils became hot”]
20And Joseph’s master took him and put him into prison, the place that the king’s prisoners were confined. And he was there in prison.
21And Yahweh was with Joseph, and showed loyal love to him, and gave him favor in the eyes of the chief of the prison.
22And the chief of the prison put all the prisoners that were in the prison into the hand of Joseph. And everything that was done there, he was the one who did it.
23The chief of the prison did not worry about anything in his hand, since Yahweh was with him. And whatever he did Yahweh made it successful.[#Literally “did not pay heed to”; #That is, Joseph’s]
