11 Now it happened [a]one day that he went into the house to do his work, and none of the people of the household was there inside. 12 So she grabbed him by his garment, saying, “Sleep with me!” But he left his garment in her hand and fled, and went outside. 13 [b]When she saw that he had left his garment in her hand and had fled outside, 14 she called to the men of her household and said to them, “See, he has brought in a [c]Hebrew to us to make fun of us; he came in to me to sleep with me, and I [d]screamed. 15 When he heard that I raised my voice and [e]screamed, he left his garment beside me and fled and went outside.”
