約瑟遭陷害
39 約瑟被以實瑪利商人帶到埃及，賣給了法老的內臣護衛長波提乏。 2 約瑟住在他的埃及主人家中，耶和華與他同在，使他凡事亨通。 3 他主人看出耶和華與他同在，使他凡事亨通， 4 就賞識他，讓他服侍自己，派他管理自己家中一切事務。 5 自從埃及人波提乏派約瑟管理自己家中一切事務以後，耶和華因為約瑟的緣故而賜福他主人家，使他主人家裡和田間的一切都蒙福。 6 於是，波提乏把一切事都交給約瑟管理，除了自己要吃的食物以外，什麼也不管。
約瑟體格健壯，相貌英俊。 7 後來，波提乏的妻子看中了約瑟，向他眉目傳情，要引誘他上床。 8 約瑟拒絕了她，說：「我主人信任我，把家裡一切事都交給我管理。 9 在這家裡，沒有人比我權力更大了，我主人把一切都交給了我，唯獨你除外，因為你是他的妻子。我怎能做這種醜事得罪上帝呢？」 10 但她還是每天勾引約瑟，約瑟不從，並儘量避開她。
11 一天，約瑟進屋裡辦事，那時屋裡沒有其他人。 12 波提乏的妻子抓住約瑟的外衣，硬要與他上床。約瑟丟下外衣擺脫她逃了出去。 13 她見約瑟丟下外衣逃了出去， 14 就叫來家裡的人，對他們說：「你們看，我丈夫帶回家的這個希伯來人戲弄我們！他進來要與我上床，我就大聲呼喊， 15 他聽見我大聲喊叫，就把衣服丟在我這裡，逃了出去。」 16 她把約瑟的外衣留在身邊，等她丈夫回來後， 17 就對他說：「你帶回來的那個希伯來人進來要戲弄我， 18 我大聲喊叫，他就把衣服丟在我這裡，逃了出去。」
19 波提乏聽了妻子講述約瑟如何對待她之後，勃然大怒， 20 把約瑟關進王囚禁犯人的監牢。 21 約瑟坐牢的時候，耶和華與他同在，恩待他，使監獄長賞識他。 22 監獄長把獄中所有囚犯及一切事務都交給約瑟管理。 23 凡交到約瑟手中的事情，監獄長都很放心，因為耶和華與約瑟同在，使他凡事亨通。

约瑟在波提乏的家
39 约瑟被带下埃及去了。有一个埃及人，是法老的臣宰，军长波提乏，从那些带约瑟下来的以实玛利人手里买了他。 2 耶和华与约瑟同在，约瑟就事事顺利，住在他主人埃及人的家里。 3 他的主人见耶和华与他同在，又见耶和华使他手里所作的尽都顺利， 4 约瑟就得主人的欢心，服事他的主人。他主人指派他管理他的家，把自己所有的一切都交在他手里。 5 自从主人指派约瑟管理他的家，和他所有的一切，耶和华就因约瑟的缘故，赐福给那埃及人的家。他家里和田间所有的一切，都蒙耶和华赐福。 6 波提乏把自己所有的一切，都交在约瑟的手里。除了自己所吃的饭以外，其他的事他一概不管。约瑟生来体格壮健，容貌俊美。
约瑟被主母引诱陷害
7 这些事以后，约瑟主人的妻子以目传情给约瑟，说：“与我同睡吧。” 8 约瑟不肯，对他主人的妻子说：“你看，家中的事我主人一概不管；他把他所有的一切，都交在我的手里。 9 在这家里没有比我大的。除你以外，我主人没有留下一样不交给我，因为你是他的妻子。我怎可以作这极恶的事，得罪 神呢？” 10 她虽然天天对约瑟这样说，约瑟却不听从她，不肯与她同睡，也不与她在一起。 11 有一天，约瑟到屋里办事，家里的人没有一个在屋里。 12 妇人就抓住约瑟的衣服，说：“与我同睡吧。”约瑟把自己的衣服留在妇人的手里，跑到外面去了。 13 妇人见约瑟把衣服留在她手里，跑到外面去， 14 就把家里的人都叫了来，对他们说：“你们看，我丈夫带回家来的希伯来人想调戏我们。他进到我这里来，要与我同睡，我就大声呼叫。 15 他一听见我高声呼叫，就把衣服留在我身边，跑到外面去了。” 16 妇人把约瑟的衣服放在她身边，等她的主人回家。 17 她又用同样的话对他说：“你带回家来的希伯来奴隶，竟进到这里来，要调戏我。 18 我高声呼叫，他就把衣服留在我身边，跑到外面去了。”
约瑟被囚狱中
19 约瑟的主人听了他妻子对他所说的话，说：“你的仆人就是这样对待我。”他就非常生气。 20 于是，约瑟的主人拿住约瑟，把他关在监里，就是王的囚犯被监禁的地方；约瑟就在那里坐监。 21 但是，耶和华与约瑟同在，向他施慈爱，使他得到监狱长的欢心。 22 因此，监狱长把监里所有的囚犯都交在约瑟手里；他们在那里所作的一切事务，都由约瑟负责处理。 23 凡交在约瑟手里的事务，监狱长一概不闻不问；因为耶和华与约瑟同在，使他所作的尽都顺利。
Genesis 39
Expanded Bible
Joseph Is Sold to Potiphar
39 Now Joseph had been taken down to Egypt. An Egyptian named Potiphar was an officer to ·the king of Egypt [L Pharaoh] and the chief butcher [37:36]. He bought Joseph from the Ishmaelites who had brought him down there. 2 The Lord was with Joseph [C indicating a covenant relationship], and he ·became a successful man [prospered]. He lived in the house of his master, Potiphar the Egyptian.
3 Potiphar saw that the Lord was with Joseph and that the Lord made Joseph ·successful [prosperous] in everything he did. 4 So ·Potiphar was very happy with Joseph [L Joseph found grace/favor in his eyes] and allowed him to ·be his personal servant [attend him]. He put Joseph in charge of the house, trusting him with everything he owned. 5 When Joseph was put in charge of the house and everything Potiphar owned, the Lord blessed the ·people in Potiphar’s [L the Egyptian’s] house because of Joseph. And the Lord blessed everything that belonged to Potiphar, both in the house and in the field. 6 So Potiphar left Joseph in charge of everything he owned and was not concerned about anything except the food he ate.
Joseph Is Put into Prison
Now Joseph was ·well built [L pleasing in figure/form] and ·handsome [L pleasing in appearance]. 7 After ·some time [L these things] the wife of Joseph’s master ·began to desire [cast her eyes on; L lifted her eyes to] Joseph, and one day she said to him, “·Have sexual relations [L Lie] with me.”
8 But Joseph refused and said to ·her [L his master’s wife], “My master ·trusts me with [L has no concern with me about] everything in his house. He has put me in charge of everything he owns. 9 There is no one in his house greater than I. He has not kept anything from me except you, because you are his wife. How can I do such an evil thing? It is a sin against God [Ex. 20:14; Prov. 5–7].”
10 The woman talked to Joseph every day, but he ·refused [L did not listen to/obey her] to ·have sexual relations with [L lie beside] her or even spend time with her.
11 One day Joseph went into the house to do his work as usual and was the only man in the house at that time. 12 His master’s wife grabbed his coat and said to him, “Come and ·have sexual relations [L lie] with me.” But Joseph left his coat in her hand and ran ·out of the house [L outside].
13 When she saw that Joseph had left his coat in her hands and had run outside, 14 she called to the ·servants in [L the men of] her house and said, “Look! This Hebrew slave was brought here to ·shame [insult; sport with] us. He came in and tried to ·have sexual relations [L lie] with me, but I screamed. 15 ·My scream scared him and [L When he heard me raise my voice and call out] he ran away, but he left his coat with me.” 16 She kept his coat until her ·husband [master] came home, 17 and she told him the same story. She said, “This Hebrew slave you brought here came in to ·shame [insult; make sport of] me! 18 When he came near me, I ·screamed [L raised my voice]. He ·ran away [fled], but he left his coat.”
19 When Joseph’s master heard what his wife said Joseph had done, he became very angry. 20 So Potiphar arrested Joseph and put him into the ·prison [L round house] where the king’s prisoners were ·put [L confined]. And Joseph stayed there in the ·prison [L round house].
21 But the Lord was with Joseph and showed him ·kindness [loyalty; love] and ·caused the prison warden to like Joseph [L gave him favor in the eyes of the chief jailer]. 22 The ·prison warden [chief jailer] chose Joseph to take care of all the prisoners, and he was responsible for whatever was done in the prison [39:20]. 23 The warden paid no attention to anything that was in Joseph’s care because the Lord was with Joseph and made him ·successful [prosper] in everything he did.
