Chakruok 39
1 Koro Josef noseter Misri. Potifa ma ja-Misri mane en achiel kuom jatend Farao, kendo jaduongʼ od ruoth nongʼiewe kuom jo-Ishmael mane okele kanyo.
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 Jehova Nyasaye ne ni kod Josef kendo nogwedhe, kendo nodak e od ruodhe ma ja-Misri.
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 Kane ruodhe oneno ni Jehova Nyasaye ne ni kode kendo ni Jehova Nyasaye nogwedho gik moko duto ma otimo,
And his lord saw, that, Yahweh, was with him—and that whatsoever, he was doing, Yahweh, was causing to prosper in his hand.
4 nobedo mamor gi Josef kendo Josef notiyone, Potifa nokete jarit ode kod mwandu duto mane en-go.
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 Chakre ndalo mane okete jarit ode kendo jarit gik moko duto ma en-go, Jehova Nyasaye nogwedho gik moko duto mane ni e od ja-Misri nikech Josef. Jehova Nyasaye nogwedho gimoro amora mane Potifa nigo e ot kod e puodho.
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 Omiyo noweyo gik moko duto mane en-go e lwet Josef kaka jarit; makoro Potifa ne ok odewo rango gimoro amora makmana chiemo mane ochamo. Josef ne nigi chia kendo jaber.
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 Kendo bangʼ kinde manok, chi ruodh Josef norange kagombe kendo nowachone niya, “Bi e kitanda ka mondo iriwri koda.”
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 To Josef nodagi mowachone niya, “Ruodha ongʼeyo gimoro amora manie odni, gimoro amora ma en-go oseketo e lweta.
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 Onge ngʼama nigi teko e odni moloya. Ruodha ok osetama gimoro amora manie odni makmana in, nikech in chiege. Koro ere kaka anyalo timo tim richo kendo makwero ma Nyasaye odagi?”
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 To nodhi nyime kowachone Josef wechego odiechiengʼ kodiechiengʼ, to notamore riwore kode kata bedo bute.
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 Chiengʼ moro achiel Josef nodhi e od ruodhe mondo otim tije kaka pile kendo ne onge jatich moro amora e ot.
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 Chi Potifa ne omake gilawe kendo owachone niya, “Bi mondo ibed koda e achiel!” To Josef noringo mowuok oko mar odno kendo noweyo lawe e lwet chi Potifa.
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 Kane dhakono oneno ni Josef oweyo lawe e lwete kendo oringo owuok oko mar ot,
And it came to pass when she saw that he had left his garment in her hand, —and fled forth outside,
14 noluongo jotichge mag ot mowachonegi niya, “Neuru, ja-Hibraniani osekelnwa mondo okuod wiwa! Nodonjo ira ka mondo oriwre koda, to ne agoyo uwi matek.
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 Kane owinjo ka agoyo uwi matek mondo okonya, noringo moweyo lawe sa ma noringo owuok oko mar ot.”
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 Dhakono nokano lawno nyaka chwore noduogo dala.
So she laid by his garment beside her, —until his lord should come into his house,
17 Eka nowacho ne chwore wachni niya, “Jatich ma ja-Hibrania manyocha ikelonwa nobiro ira mondo okuod wiya.
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 To ka ne agoyo uwi mondo okonya, noweya gi nangane, kendo oringo owuok oko.”
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 Ka ruodhe nowinjo gima chiege owachone kuom gima jatichne osetimone, iye nowangʼ matek.
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 Ruodh Josef nomako Josef mokete e od twech, kamane ikanoe joma otwe mag ruoth. To kane Josef ni e od twech,
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 Jehova Nyasaye ne ni kode; notimone kech kendo nomiyo oyudo ngʼwono e nyim jorit joma ne otwe.
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 Kuom mano jaduongʼ mar od twech noketo Josef jatend joma otwe duto e od twech kendo Josef ema norito gik moko duto mane itimo kanyo.
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 Jarit joma ni e od twech ne ok odewo rango gimoro amora mane oseketo e lwet Josef, nikech Jehova Nyasaye ne ni kod Josef kendo nogwedhe e gimoro amora mane otimo.
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.
