1 Mojžišova 39

1 Jozef pak doveden byl do Egypta; a koupil ho Putifar, dvořenin Faraonův, nejvyšší nad drabanty, muž Egyptský, od Izmaelitských, kteříž ho tam dovedli.

Now, Joseph, was taken down to Egypt, —and Potiphar, courtier of Pharaoh, chief of the royal executioners, an Egyptian bought him, at the hand of the Ishmaelites, who had brought him down thither.

2 Byl pak Hospodin s Jozefem, a všecko se mu šťastně vedlo, a bydlil v domě pána svého toho Egyptského.

And it came to pass that Yahweh, was with Joseph, so that he became a prosperous man, —and was in the house of his lord the Egyptian.

3 A viděl pán jeho, že Hospodin byl s ním, a že všecko, což činil, Hospodin k prospěchu přivedl v rukou jeho.

And his lord saw, that, Yahweh, was with him—and that whatsoever, he was doing, Yahweh, was causing to prosper in his hand.

4 Tedy nalezl Jozef milost před očima jeho, a sloužil mu. I představil ho domu svému, a všecko, což měl, dal v ruku jeho.

So Joseph found favour in his eyes and waited upon him, —and he made him overseer over his house, and all that he had, gave he into his hand.

5 A hned, jakž ustanovil ho nad domem svým, a nade vším, což měl, požehnal Hospodin domu Egyptského toho pro Jozefa. A bylo požehnání Hospodinovo na všech věcech, kteréž měl doma i na poli.

And it came to pass from the time that he made him overseer in his house and over all that he had, that Yahweh blessed the house of the Egyptian, for Joseph’s sake, —yea it came to pass, that the blessing of Yahweh, was with all that he had, in the house and in the field;

6 Všech tedy věcí, kteréž měl, zanechal v rukou Jozefových; aniž o čem, tak jako on, věděl, jediné o chlebě, kterýž jedl. Byl pak Jozef ušlechtilé postavy a krásného vzezření.

so that he left all that he had in the hand of Joseph, and took note with him of nothing, save only the bread which, he himself, was eating. And so it was that Joseph was comely in form and comely in countenance.

7 I stalo se potom, že vzhlédala žena pána jeho očima svýma na Jozefa, a řekla: Spi se mnou.

And it came to pass after these things, that his lord’s wife lifted up her eyes unto Joseph, —and she said—Come! lie with me.

8 Kterýžto odpíraje, řekl ženě pána svého: Aj, pán můj neví tak jako já, co jest v domě, a všecko, což má, dal v ruce mé.

And he refused and said unto his lord’s wife, Lo! my lord, taketh no note with me as to what is in the house, —but, all that pertaineth to him, hath he delivered into my hand:

9 Není žádného přednějšího nade mne v domě tomto, aniž co vyňal z správy mé, kromě tebe, jelikož jsi ty manželka jeho. Jak bych tedy učinil takovou nešlechetnost, a hřešil i proti Bohu?

There is no one greater in this house than I, neither hath he withheld from me anything, save only thyself in that thou, art his wife, —how, then could I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?

10 A když mluvila ona Jozefovi den po dni, nepovolil jí, aby spal s ní, ani aby býval s ní.

And it came to pass, that although she Spake unto Joseph day after day, yet hearkened he not unto her to lie beside her to be with her.

11 Tedy dne jednoho, když přišel do domu k práci své, a nebylo tu žádného z domácích v domě,

And it came to pass, when, on a certain day, he went into the house to attend to his business, —and there was no man of the household, there in the house,

12 Chytila jej ona za roucho jeho, řkuci: Lež se mnou. On pak nechav roucha svého v rukou jejích, utekl, a vyšel ven.

that she caught him by his garment, saying—Come! lie with me. Then left he his garment in her hand, and fled and gat forth outside,

13 A ona viduci, že nechal roucha svého v rukou jejích a vyběhl ven,

And it came to pass when she saw that he had left his garment in her hand, —and fled forth outside,

14 Svolala domácí své, a řekla k nim takto: Pohleďte, přivedl nám muže Hebrejského, kterýž by měl posměch z nás; nebo přišel ke mně, aby ležel se mnou; i křičela jsem hlasem velikým.

that she cried out to the men of her house and spake to them, saying, Look ye! he hath brought in to us a Hebrew man to insult us, —He came in unto me, to lie with me, so I cried out with a loud voice.

15 A když uslyšel, že jsem hlasu svého pozdvihla a křičela, nechav roucha svého u mne, utekl a vyšel ven.

And it came to pass, when he heard that I lifted high my voice, and cried out, then left he his garment beside me, and fled and gat forth outside.

16 Tedy schovala roucho jeho u sebe, až přišel pán jeho do domu svého.

So she laid by his garment beside her, —until his lord should come into his house,

17 K němuž mluvila v tato slova, řkuci: Přišel ke mně služebník ten Hebrejský, kteréhožs přivedl nám, aby mi lehkost učinil.

Then spake she unto him, according to these words, saying, —He hath been in unto me—the Hebrew servant whom thou didst bring in to us—to insult me.

18 A když jsem hlasu svého pozdvihla a křičela, tedy nechal roucha svého u mne, a utekl ven.

And it came to pass when I lifted high my voice and cried out, then left he his garment beside me, and fled outside.

19 I stalo se, že, když uslyšel pán jeho slova ženy své, kteráž mluvila mu, pravěci: Tak mi učinil služebník tvůj, rozhněval se velmi.

And it came to pass, when his lord heard the words of his wife which she spake unto him saying, According to these words, hath thy servant done to me, Then was kindled his anger.

20 Protož vzal ho pán jeho, a dal jej do věže žalářné, v to místo, kdež vězňové královští seděli; i byl tam v žaláři.

So Joseph’s lord took him and delivered him up to the prison: the place where, the prisoners of the king, were imprisoned, —so he was there, in the prison.

21 Byl pak Hospodin s Jozefem, a naklonil se k němu milosrdenstvím; a dal jemu milost u vládaře nad žalářem.

And it came to pass that, Yahweh, was with Joseph, and extended unto him lovingkindness, —and gave him his favour in the eyes of the chief of the prison.

22 I dal vládař žaláře v moc Jozefovi všecky vězně, kteříž byli v věži žalářné; a cožkoli tam činiti měli, on to spravoval.

So the chief of the prison delivered up, into Joseph’s hand all the prisoners who were in the prison, —and of all that was doing there, he, was the doer.

23 Aniž vládař žaláře k čemu dohlídal, což jemu svěřil; proto že Hospodin byl s ním, a což on činil, Hospodin tomu prospěch dával.

After nothing, was the chief of the prison looking, of whatever was in his hand, —in that Yahweh, was with him, and whatsoever, he was doing, Yahweh, was causing to prosper.
