1 And Joseph{H3130} was brought down{H3381}{(H8717)} to Egypt{H4714}; and Potiphar{H6318}, an officer{H5631} of Pharaoh{H6547}, captain{H8269} of the guard{H2876}, an Egyptian{H376}{H4713}, bought{H7069}{(H8799)} him of the hands{H3027} of the Ishmeelites{H3459}, which had brought him down{H3381}{(H8689)} thither.

2 And the LORD{H3068} was with Joseph{H3130}, and he was a prosperous{H6743}{(H8688)} man{H376}; and he was in the house{H1004} of his master{H113} the Egyptian{H4713}.

3 And his master{H113} saw{H7200}{(H8799)} that the LORD{H3068} was with him, and that the LORD{H3068} made all that he did{H6213}{(H8802)} to prosper{H6743}{(H8688)} in his hand{H3027}.

4 And Joseph{H3130} found{H4672}{(H8799)} grace{H2580} in his sight{H5869}, and he served{H8334}{(H8762)} him: and he made him overseer{H6485}{(H8686)} over his house{H1004}, and all that he had{H3426} he put{H5414}{(H8804)} into his hand{H3027}.

5 And it came to pass from the time{H227} that he had made him overseer{H6485}{(H8689)} in his house{H1004}, and over all that he had{H3426}, that the LORD{H3068} blessed{H1288}{(H8762)} the Egyptian's{H4713} house{H1004} for Joseph's{H3130} sake{H1558}; and the blessing{H1293} of the LORD{H3068} was upon all that he had{H3426} in the house{H1004}, and in the field{H7704}.

6 And he left{H5800}{(H8799)} all that he had in Joseph's{H3130} hand{H3027}; and he knew{H3045}{(H8804)} not ought{H3972} he had, save{H518} the bread{H3899} which he did eat{H398}{(H8802)}. And Joseph{H3130} was a goodly{H8389} person, and well{H3303} favoured{H4758}.

7 And it came to pass after{H310} these things{H1697}, that his master's{H113} wife{H802} cast{H5375}{(H8799)} her eyes{H5869} upon Joseph{H3130}; and she said{H559}{(H8799)}, Lie{H7901}{(H8798)} with me.

8 But he refused{H3985}{(H8762)}, and said{H559}{(H8799)} unto his master's{H113} wife{H802}, Behold, my master{H113} wotteth{H3045}{(H8804)} not what is with me in the house{H1004}, and he hath committed{H5414}{(H8804)} all that he hath{H3426} to my hand{H3027};

9 There is none greater{H1419} in this house{H1004} than I; neither{H3808} hath he kept back{H2820}{(H8804)} any thing{H3972} from me but thee, because{H834} thou{H859} art his wife{H802}: how then can I do{H6213}{(H8799)} this great{H1419} wickedness{H7451}, and sin{H2398}{(H8804)} against God{H430}?

10 And it came to pass, as she spake{H1696}{(H8763)} to Joseph{H3130} day{H3117} by day{H3117}, that he hearkened{H8085}{(H8804)} not unto her, to lie{H7901}{(H8800)} by her{H681}, or to be with her.

11 And it came to pass about this time{H3117}, that Joseph went{H935}{(H8799)} into the house{H1004} to do{H6213}{(H8800)} his business{H4399}; and there was none of the men{H376}{H582} of the house{H1004} there within.

12 And she caught{H8610}{(H8799)} him by his garment{H899}, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, Lie{H7901}{(H8798)} with me: and he left{H5800}{(H8799)} his garment{H899} in her hand{H3027}, and fled{H5127}{(H8799)}, and got{H3318}{(H8799)} him out{H2351}.

13 And it came to pass, when she saw{H7200}{(H8800)} that he had left{H5800}{(H8804)} his garment{H899} in her hand{H3027}, and was fled{H5127}{(H8799)} forth{H2351},

14 That she called{H7121}{(H8799)} unto the men{H582} of her house{H1004}, and spake{H559}{(H8799)} unto them, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, See{H7200}{(H8798)}, he hath brought in{H935}{(H8689)} an Hebrew{H376}{H5680} unto us to mock{H6711}{(H8763)} us; he came in{H935}{(H8804)} unto me to lie{H7901}{(H8800)} with me, and I cried{H7121}{(H8799)} with a loud{H1419} voice{H6963}:

15 And it came to pass, when he heard{H8085}{(H8800)} that I lifted up{H7311}{(H8689)} my voice{H6963} and cried{H7121}{(H8799)}, that he left{H5800}{(H8799)} his garment{H899} with me{H681}, and fled{H5127}{(H8799)}, and got him{H3318}{(H8799)} out{H2351}.

16 And she laid up{H3240}{(H8686)} his garment{H899} by her{H681}, until his lord{H113} came{H935}{(H8800)} home{H1004}.

17 And she spake{H1696}{(H8762)} unto him according to these words{H1697}, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, The Hebrew{H5680} servant{H5650}, which thou hast brought{H935}{(H8689)} unto us, came in{H935}{(H8804)} unto me to mock{H6711}{(H8763)} me:

18 And it came to pass, as I lifted up{H7311}{(H8687)} my voice{H6963} and cried{H7121}{(H8799)}, that he left{H5800}{(H8799)} his garment{H899} with me{H681}, and fled{H5127}{(H8799)} out{H2351}.

19 And it came to pass, when his master{H113} heard{H8085}{(H8800)} the words{H1697} of his wife{H802}, which she spake{H1696}{(H8765)} unto him, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, After this manner{H1697} did{H6213}{(H8804)} thy servant{H5650} to me; that his wrath{H639} was kindled{H2734}{(H8799)}.

20 And Joseph's{H3130} master{H113} took{H3947}{(H8799)} him, and put him{H5414}{(H8799)} into the prison{H1004}{H5470}, a place{H4725} where the king's{H4428} prisoners{H615} were bound{H631}{(H8803)}: and he was there in the prison{H1004}{H5470}.

21 But the LORD{H3068} was with Joseph{H3130}, and shewed{H5186}{(H8799)} him mercy{H2617}, and gave{H5414}{(H8799)} him favour{H2580} in the sight{H5869} of the keeper{H8269} of the prison{H1004}{H5470}.

22 And the keeper{H8269} of the prison{H1004}{H5470} committed{H5414}{(H8799)} to Joseph's{H3130} hand{H3027} all the prisoners{H615} that were in the prison{H1004}{H5470}; and whatsoever they did{H6213}{(H8802)} there, he was the doer{H6213}{(H8802)} of it.

23 The keeper{H8269} of the prison{H1004}{H5470} looked{H7200}{(H8802)} not to any thing{H3972} that was under his hand{H3027}; because the LORD{H3068} was with him, and that which he did{H6213}{(H8802)}, the LORD{H3068} made it to prosper{H6743}{(H8688)}.
