01_GEN_39_01 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 .
01_GEN_39_02 And the LORD was with Joseph , And he was A prosperous man ; And he was in the house of his master the Egyptian .
01_GEN_39_03 And his master saw that the LORD [ was ] with him , And that the LORD made all that he did to prosper in his hand .
01_GEN_39_04 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 .
01_GEN_39_05 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 .
01_GEN_39_06 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 .
01_GEN_39_07 And it came to pass after These things , that his master's wife cast her eyes upon Joseph ; And she said , Lie with me .
01_GEN_39_08 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 ;
01_GEN_39_09 [ 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 ?
01_GEN_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 .
01_GEN_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 .
01_GEN_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 .
01_GEN_39_13 And it came to pass , when she saw that he had left his garment in her hand , And was fled forth ,
01_GEN_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 :
01_GEN_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 .
01_GEN_39_16 And she laid up his garment by her , until his LORD came home .
01_GEN_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 :
01_GEN_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 .
01_GEN_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 .
01_GEN_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 .
01_GEN_39_21 but the LORD was with Joseph , And showed him mercy , And gave him favour in the sight of the keeper of the prison .
01_GEN_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 ] .
01_GEN_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 .
