Genesis  


39 : 1 And Joseph was brought down to Egypt; and Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh, captain of the guard, an Egyptian, bought him of the hands of the Ishmeelites, which had brought him down thither.
39 : 2 And the LORD was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man; and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian.
39 : 3 And his master saw that the LORD was with him, and that the LORD made all that he did to prosper in his hand.
39 : 4 And Joseph found grace in his sight, and he served him: and he made him overseer over his house, and all that he had he put into his hand.
39 : 5 And it came to pass from the time that he had made him overseer in his house, and over all that he had, that the LORD blessed the Egyptian`s house for Joseph`s sake; and the blessing of the LORD was upon all that he had in the house, and in the field.
39 : 6 And he left all that he had in Joseph`s hand; and he knew not ought he had, save the bread which he did eat. And Joseph was a goodly person, and well favoured.
39 : 7 And it came to pass after these things, that his master`s wife cast her eyes upon Joseph; and she said, Lie with me.
39 : 8 But he refused, and said unto his master`s wife, Behold, my master wotteth not what is with me in the house, and he hath committed all that he hath to my hand;
39 : 9 There is none greater in this house than I; neither hath he kept back any thing from me but thee, because thou art his wife: how then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?
39 : 10 And it came to pass, as she spake to Joseph day by day, that he hearkened not unto her, to lie by her, or to be with her.
39 : 11 And it came to pass about this time, that Joseph went into the house to do his business; and there was none of the men of the house there within.
39 : 12 And she caught him by his garment, saying, Lie with me: and he left his garment in her hand, and fled, and got him out.
39 : 13 And it came to pass, when she saw that he had left his garment in her hand, and was fled forth,
39 : 14 That she called unto the men of her house, and spake unto them, saying, See, he hath brought in an Hebrew unto us to mock us; he came in unto me to lie with me, and I cried with a loud voice:
39 : 15 And it came to pass, when he heard that I lifted up my voice and cried, that he left his garment with me, and fled, and got him out.
39 : 16 And she laid up his garment by her, until his lord came home.
39 : 17 And she spake unto him according to these words, saying, The Hebrew servant, which thou hast brought unto us, came in unto me to mock me:
39 : 18 And it came to pass, as I lifted up my voice and cried, that he left his garment with me, and fled out.
39 : 19 And it came to pass, when his master heard the words of his wife, which she spake unto him, saying, After this manner did thy servant to me; that his wrath was kindled.
39 : 20 And Joseph`s master took him, and put him into the prison, a place where the king`s prisoners were bound: and he was there in the prison.
39 : 21 But the LORD was with Joseph, and shewed him mercy, and gave him favour in the sight of the keeper of the prison.
39 : 22 And the keeper of the prison committed to Joseph`s hand all the prisoners that were in the prison; and whatsoever they did there, he was the doer of it.
39 : 23 The keeper of the prison looked not to any thing that was under his hand; because the LORD was with him, and that which he did, the LORD made it to prosper.
