Genesis 39:2-6
New American Standard Bible
2 And (A)the Lord was with Joseph, so he became a [a]successful man. And he was in the house of his master, the Egyptian. 3 Now his master (B)saw that the Lord was with him and that the Lord (C)made all that he did prosper in his hand. 4 So Joseph (D)found favor in his sight and [b]became his personal servant; and he made him overseer over his house, and [c]put him in charge of (E)all that he owned. 5 It came about that from the time he made him overseer in his house and over all that he owned, the Lord (F)blessed the Egyptian’s house on account of Joseph; so (G)the Lord’s blessing was upon all that he owned, in the house and in the field. 6 So he left [d]Joseph in charge of everything that he owned; and with him there he did not [e]concern himself with anything except the [f]food which he [g]ate.
Now Joseph was (H)handsome in form and appearance.
