Joseph was brought down to Egypt. Potiphar, an official of Pharaoh who was captain of the guard and an Egyptian, bought him from the Ishmaelites, who had brought him down there.
2 Jehova Nyasaye ne ni kod Josef kendo nogwedhe, kendo nodak e od ruodhe ma ja-Misri.
Yahweh was with Joseph and he became a prosperous man. He lived in the house of his Egyptian master.

Joseph found favor in his sight. He served Potiphar. Potiphar made Joseph manager over his house, and everything that he possessed, he put under his care.

But he refused and said to his master's wife, “Look, my master does not pay attention to what I do in the house, and he has put everything that he owns under my care.
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?”
No one is greater in this house than I am. 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?”

The prison warden did not worry about anything that was in his hand, because Yahweh was with him. Whatever he did, Yahweh prospered.
