- 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.
- 2. And the LORD was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man; and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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
- 6. And he left all that he had in Joseph
- 7. And it came to pass after these things, that his master
- 8. But he refused, and said unto his master
- 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?
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 13. And it came to pass, when she saw that he had left his garment in her hand, and was fled forth,
- 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:
- 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.
- 16. And she laid up his garment by her, until his lord came home.
- 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:
- 18. And it came to pass, as I lifted up my voice and cried, that he left his garment with me, and fled out.
- 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.
- 20. And Joseph
- 21. But the LORD was with Joseph, and shewed him mercy, and gave him favour in the sight of the keeper of the prison.
- 22. And the keeper of the prison committed to Joseph
- 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.
