< Genesis 39 >

1 Gidala si Jose palugsong sa Ehipto. Si Potifar, nga usa ka opisyal sa Paraon nga kapitan sa mga guwardiya ug usa ka Ehiptohanon, nagpalit kaniya gikan sa mga Ismaelita, nga maoy nagdala kaniya didto.
Joseph was brought down to Egypt. Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh’s, the captain of the guard, an Egyptian, bought him from the hand of the Ishmaelites that had brought him down there.
2 Si Yahweh nag-uban kang Jose ug nagmalamboon siya nga tawo. Nagpuyo siya sa balay sa iyang agalon nga Ehiptohanon.
The LORD was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man. He was in the house of his master the Egyptian.
3 Nakita sa iyang agalon nga si Yahweh nag-uban kaniya ug gipanalanginan ni Yahweh ang tanan niyang gibuhat.
His master saw that the LORD was with him, and that the LORD made all that he did prosper in his hand.
4 Nakakaplag si Jose ug pabor sa iyang panan-aw. Nag-alagad siya kang Potifar. Gihimo ni Potifar si Jose nga tigdumala sa iyang tibuok panimalay, ug ang tanan nga iyang gipanag-iyahan, iyang gibutang ilalom sa iyang pag-atiman.
Joseph found favour in his sight. He ministered to him, and Potiphar made him overseer over his house, and all that he had he put into his hand.
5 Nahitabo kini gikan sa panahon nga gihimo niyang tigdumala si Jose sa tibuok niyang panimalay ug sa tibuok niyang gipanag-iyahan, nga gipanalanginan ni Yahweh ang balay sa Ehiptohanon tungod kang Jose. Ang panalangin ni Yahweh anaa sa tanang butang nga anaa sa panimalay ni Potifar ug sa kaumahan.
From the time that he made him overseer in his house, and over all that he had, the LORD blessed the Egyptian’s house for Joseph’s sake. The LORD’s blessing was on all that he had, in the house and in the field.
6 Gibutang ni Potifar ubos sa pagdumala ni Jose ang tanan nga anaa kaniya. Wala na siya maghunahuna sa bisan unsa gawas sa iyang pagkaon. Karon kining si Jose gwapo ug makadani.
He left all that he had in Joseph’s hand. He didn’t concern himself with anything, except for the food which he ate. Joseph was well-built and handsome.
7 Nahitabo human niini nga ang asawa sa agalon ni Jose naibog kaniya. Miingon ang babaye, “Dulog kanako.”
After these things, his master’s wife set her eyes on Joseph; and she said, “Lie with me.”
8 Apan midumili si Jose ug miingon sa asawa sa iyang agalon, “Tan-awa, ang akong agalon wala na manghilabot kung unsa ang akong pagabuhaton sa balay, ug iyang gibutang ubos sa akong pagdumala ang tanang butang nga iyang gipanag-iyahan.
But he refused, and said to his master’s wife, “Behold, my master doesn’t know what is with me in the house, and he has put all that he has into my hand.
9 Walay usa nga mas labaw kay kanako niining panimalaya. Wala siyay gihikaw kanako gawas kanimo, tungod kay asawa ka man niya. Unsaon man nako pagbuhat niining hilabihang pagkadaotan ug sala batok sa Dios?”
No one is greater in this house than I am, and he has not kept back anything from me but you, because you are his wife. How then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?”
10 Gidani niya si Jose sa matag-adlaw, apan nagdumili kini sa pagpakigdulog o sa pagpakig-uban kaniya.
As she spoke to Joseph day by day, he didn’t listen to her, to lie by her, or to be with her.
11 Miabot ang usa ka adlaw nga misulod siya sa balay aron pagbuhat sa iyang buluhaton. Walay mga tawo sa sulod sa panimalay.
About this time, he went into the house to do his work, and there were none of the men of the house inside.
12 Gibira niya ang bisti ni Jose ug miingon, “Dulog kanako.” Unya nahibilin ang iyang bisti sa kamot sa babaye sa dihang miikyas ug miadto siya sa gawas.
She caught him by his garment, saying, “Lie with me!” He left his garment in her hand, and ran outside.
13 Pagkahuman, sa dihang nakita niya nga nahibilin ang bisti ni Jose sa iyang kamot ug miikyas pagawas,
When she saw that he had left his garment in her hand, and had run outside,
14 gitawag niya ang mga tawo sa iyang balay ug giingnan sila, “Tan-awa, nagdala si Potifar ug usa ka Hebreohanon aron pakaulawan kita. Misulod siya aron makigdulog unta kanako, ug misinggit ako.
she called to the men of her house, and spoke to them, saying, “Behold, he has brought a Hebrew in to us to mock us. He came in to me to lie with me, and I cried with a loud voice.
15 Sa dihang nadungog niya nga misinggit ako, miikyas siya ug nahibilin ang iyang bisti ngari kanako ug miadto sa gawas.”
When he heard that I lifted up my voice and cried, he left his garment by me, and ran outside.”
16 Gibutang niya ang bisti ni Jose tapad kaniya hangtod nga miabot ang iyang agalon.
She laid up his garment by her, until his master came home.
17 Gisugilon niya kini nga panghitabo ngadto kaniya, “Ang Hebreohanon nga ulipon nga imong gidala nganhi kanato, mianhi aron pakaulawan ako.
She spoke to him according to these words, saying, “The Hebrew servant, whom you have brought to us, came in to me to mock me,
18 Sa dihang misinggit ako, iyang nabiyaan ang iyang bisti nganhi kanako ug miikyas pagawas.”
and as I lifted up my voice and cried, he left his garment by me, and ran outside.”
19 Nahitabo kini sa dihang nadungog sa iyang agalon ang gisugilon sa asawa niini, “Mao kana ang gibuhat sa imong ulipon kanako,” ug nasuko siya pag-ayo.
When his master heard the words of his wife, which she spoke to him, saying, “This is what your servant did to me,” his wrath was kindled.
20 Gidala sa iyang agalon si Jose ug gibilanggo siya, sa dapit kung asa nahimutang ang mga binilanggo sa hari. Anaa siya didto sa bilanggoan.
Joseph’s master took him, and put him into the prison, the place where the king’s prisoners were bound, and he was there in custody.
21 Apan si Yahweh nag-uban kang Jose ug nagpakita sa pagkamatinud-anon sa iyang saad ngadto kaniya. Gihatagan niya siya ug pabor sa panan-aw sa tigdumala sa bilanggoan.
But the LORD was with Joseph, and showed kindness to him, and gave him favour in the sight of the keeper of the prison.
22 Gitugyan sa tigdumala sa bilanggoan ngadto sa kamot ni Jose ang tanan nga anaa sa bilanggoan. Bisan unsa ang ilang pagabuhaton didto, si Jose mao ang nagdumala niini.
The keeper of the prison committed to Joseph’s hand all the prisoners who were in the prison. Whatever they did there, he was responsible for it.
23 Wala na naghunahuna pa ang tigdumala sa bilanggoan sa bisan unsa nga anaa sa iyang kamot, tungod kay nag-uban man kaniya si Yahweh. Bisan unsa ang iyang pagabuhaton, gipalambo ni Yahweh.
The keeper of the prison didn’t look after anything that was under his hand, because the LORD was with him; and that which he did, the LORD made it prosper.
