Genesis 39:1 (NIRV) New International Reader's Version

1 Joseph had been taken down to Egypt. An Egyptian named Potiphar had bought him from the Ishmaelite traders who had taken him there. Potiphar was one of Pharaoh's officials. He was the captain of the palace guard.
2 The Lord was with Joseph. He gave him great success. Joseph lived in Potiphar's house.
3 Joseph's master saw that the Lord was with him. He saw that the Lord gave Joseph success in everything he did.
4 So Potiphar was pleased with Joseph. He made him his attendant. He put Joseph in charge of his house. He told Joseph to take good care of everything he owned.
5 From that time on, the Lord blessed Potiphar's family and servants because of Joseph. He blessed everything Potiphar had in his house and field.
6 So Potiphar told Joseph to take good care of everything he owned. With Joseph in charge, he didn't have to worry about anything except the food he ate. Joseph was strong and handsome.
7 After a while, his master's wife noticed Joseph. She said to him, "Make love to me!"
8 But he said no. "My master has put me in charge," he told her. "Now he doesn't have to worry about anything in the house. He trusts me to take care of everything he owns.
9 "No one in this house is in a higher position than I am. My master hasn't held anything back from me, except you. You are his wife. So how could I do an evil thing like that? How could I sin against God?"
10 She spoke to Joseph day after day. But he told her he wouldn't make love to her. He didn't even want to be with her.
11 One day Joseph went into the house to take care of his duties. None of the family servants was inside.
12 Potiphar's wife grabbed hold of him by his coat. "Make love to me!" she said. But he left his coat in her hand. And he ran out of the house.
13 She saw that he had left his coat in her hand and had run out of the house.
14 So she called her servants. "Look," she said to them, "this Hebrew slave has been brought here to make fun of us! He came in here to force me to have sex with him. But I screamed for help.
15 He heard my scream. So he left his coat beside me and ran out of the house."
16 She kept Joseph's coat with her until Potiphar came home.
17 Then she told him her story. She said, "That Hebrew slave you brought us came to me to rape me.
18 But I screamed for help. So he left his coat beside me and ran out of the house."
19 Potiphar's wife told him, "That's how your slave treated me." When Joseph's master heard her story, he became very angry.
20 So he put Joseph in prison. It was the place where the king's prisoners were kept. While Joseph was there in the prison,
21 the Lord was with him. He was kind to him. So the man who was running the prison was pleased with Joseph.
22 He put Joseph in charge of all of the prisoners. He made him accountable for everything that was done there.
23 The man who ran the prison didn't pay attention to anything that was in Joseph's care. The Lord was with Joseph. He gave Joseph success in everything he did.
1 And Joseph H3130 was brought down H3381 to Egypt H4714 TFS-3FS ; and Potiphar H6318 , an officer H5631 of Pharaoh H6547 EMS , captain H8269 of the guard H2876 , an Egyptian H4713 , bought H7069 him of the hands H3027 M-GFS of the Ishmaelites H3459 , which H834 RPRO had brought him down H3381 thither H8033 .
2 And the LORD H3068 EDS was H1961 W-VQY3MS with H854 PREP Joseph H3130 , and he was H1961 W-VQY3MS a prosperous H6743 man H376 ; and he was H1961 W-VQY3MS in the house H1004 B-CMS of his master H113 the Egyptian H4713 .
3 And his master H113 saw H7200 W-VIY3MS that H3588 CONJ the LORD H3068 EDS was with H854 PREP-3MS him , and that the LORD H3068 EDS made all H3605 W-CMS that H834 RPRO he H1931 PPRO-3MS did H6213 VQPMS to prosper H6743 in his hand H3027 B-CFS-3MS .
4 And Joseph H3130 found H4672 W-VQY3MS grace H2580 NMS in his sight H5869 B-CMD-3MS , and he served H8334 him : and he made him overseer H6485 over H5921 PREP his house H1004 NMS-3MS , and all H3605 W-CMS that he had H3426 ADV he put H5414 VQQ3MS into his hand H3027 B-CFS-3MS .
5 And it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS from the time H227 that he had made him overseer H6485 in his house H1004 B-CMS-3MS , and over H5921 W-PREP all H3605 NMS that H834 RPRO he had H3426 ADV , that the LORD H3068 EDS blessed H1288 W-VNY3MS the Egyptian H4713 \'s house H1004 CMS for Joseph\'s sake H1558 ; and the blessing H1293 CFS of the LORD H3068 EDS was H1961 W-VQY3MS upon all H3605 NMS that H834 RPRO he had H3426 ADV in the house H1004 , and in the field H7704 .
6 And he left H5800 all H3605 NMS that H834 RPRO he had in Joseph H3130 \'s hand H3027 B-CFS ; and he knew H3045 VQQ3MS not H3808 W-NPAR aught H3972 NMS he had H854 PREP-3MS , save H518 PART the bread H3899 which H834 RPRO he H1931 PPRO-3MS did eat H398 . And Joseph H3130 was H1961 W-VQY3MS a goodly H3303 person , and well H3303 favored H4758 .
7 And it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS after H310 ADV these H428 D-DPRO-3MP things H1697 AMP , that his master H113 \'s wife H802 CFS cast H5375 her eyes H5869 upon H413 PREP Joseph H3130 ; and she said H559 W-VQY3FS , Lie H7901 with H5973 PREP-1MS me .
8 But he refused H3985 , and said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP his master H113 \'s wife H802 CFS , Behold H2005 IJEC , my master H113 knoweth H3045 VQQ3MS not H3808 NADV what H4100 IPRO is with H854 PREP-1MS me in the house H1004 , and he hath committed H5414 VQQ3MS all H3605 W-CMS that H834 RPRO he hath H3426 ADV to my hand H3027 ;
9 There is none H369 greater H1419 in this H2088 D-PMS house H1004 than H4480 M-PREP-1MS I ; neither H3808 W-NPAR hath he kept back H2820 any thing H3972 NMS from H4480 M-PREP-1MS me but H518 PART thee , because H834 B-RPRO thou H859 art his wife H802 CFS-3MS : how H349 W-IJEC then can I do H6213 VQY1MS this H2063 D-DFS great H1419 wickedness H7451 D-AFS , and sin H2398 against God H430 ?
10 And it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS , as she spoke H1696 to H413 PREP Joseph H3130 day H3117 NMS by day H3117 NMS , that he hearkened H8085 not H3808 W-NPAR unto H413 PREP her , to lie H7901 by H681 her , or to be H1961 with H5973 her .
11 And it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS about this H2088 D-PMS time H3117 , that Joseph went H935 W-VQY3MS into the house H1004 to do H6213 L-VQFC his business H4399 CFS-3MS ; and there was none H369 W-NPAR of the men H376 NMS of the house H1004 D-NMS there H8033 ADV within H1004 .
12 And she caught H8610 him by his garment H899 NMS-3MS , saying H559 L-VQFC , Lie H7901 with H5973 me : and he left H5800 his garment H899 NMS-3MS in her hand H3027 , and fled H5127 , and got H3318 W-VQY3MS him out H2351 .
13 And it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS , when she saw H7200 that H3588 CONJ he had left H5800 VQQ3MS his garment H899 NMS-3MS in her hand H3027 , and was fled H5127 forth H2351 ,
14 That she called H7121 W-VQY2MS unto the men H376 NMS of her house H1004 CMS-3FS , and spoke H559 W-VQY3FS unto them , saying H559 L-VQFC , See H7200 , he hath brought in H935 VHQ3MS a Hebrew H5680 TMS unto us to mock H6711 us ; he came in H935 VQPMS unto H413 PREP-1MS me to lie H7901 with H5973 me , and I cried H7121 with a loud H1419 voice H6963 B-NMS :
15 And it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS , when he heard H8085 that H3588 CONJ I lifted up H7311 VHQ1MS my voice H6963 NMS-1MS and cried H7121 , that he left H5800 his garment H899 NMS-3MS with H681 me , and fled H5127 , and got H3318 W-VQY3MS him out H2351 .
16 And she laid up H5117 his garment H899 NMS-3MS by H681 her , until H5704 PREP his lord H113 came H935 VQFC home H1004 CMS-3MS .
17 And she spoke H1696 unto H413 PREP-3MS him according to these H428 D-DPRO-3MP words H1697 , saying H559 L-VQFC , The Hebrew H5680 servant H5650 , which H834 RPRO thou hast brought H935 unto us , came in H935 unto H413 PREP-1MS me to mock H6711 me :
18 And it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS , as I lifted up H7311 my voice H6963 NMS-1MS and cried H7121 , that he left H5800 his garment H899 NMS-3MS with H681 me , and fled H5127 out H2351 .
19 And it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS , when his master H113 heard H8085 the words H1697 CMP of his wife H802 CFS-3MS , which H834 RPRO she spoke H1696 VPQ3FS unto H413 PREP-3MS him , saying H559 L-VQFC , After this H428 D-DPRO-3MP manner H1697 did H6213 thy servant H5650 to me ; that his wrath H639 CMS-3MS was kindled H2734 W-VQY3MS .
20 And Joseph H3130 \'s master H113 took H3947 W-VQY3MS him , and put H5414 him into H413 PREP the prison H1004 CMS , a place H4725 CMS where H834 RPRO the king H4428 D-NMS \'s prisoners H615 were bound H631 VWPMP : and he was H1961 W-VPY3MS there H8033 ADV in the prison H1004 B-CMS .
21 But the LORD H3068 EDS was H1961 W-VQY3MS with H854 PREP Joseph H3130 , and showed H5186 W-VQY3MS him mercy H2617 NMS , and gave H5414 W-VQQ3MS him favor H2580 in the sight H5869 B-CMP of the keeper H8269 of the prison H1004 CMS .
22 And the keeper H8269 of the prison H1004 CMS committed H5414 W-VQQ3MS to Joseph H3130 \'s hand H3027 B-CFS all H3605 NMS the prisoners H615 that H834 RPRO were in the prison H1004 B-CMS ; and whatsoever H3605 NMS they did H6213 there H8033 ADV , he H1931 PPRO-3MS was H1961 VQQ3MS the doer H6213 of it .
23 The keeper H8269 of the prison H1004 CMS looked H7200 VQPMS not H369 NPAR to any thing H3605 NMS that was under his hand H3027 B-CFS-3MS ; because H834 B-RPRO the LORD H3068 EDS was with H854 PREP-3MS him , and that which H834 he H1931 PPRO-3MS did H6213 VQPMS , the LORD H3068 EDS made it to prosper H6743 .
