Genesis 39
1 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.
А Јосифа одведоше у Мисир; и Петефрије дворанин Фараонов, заповедник стражарски, човек Мисирац, купи га од Исмаиљаца, који га одведоше онамо.
2 The LORD was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man. He was in the house of his master the Egyptian.
И Господ беше с Јосифом, те би срећан, и живеше у кући господара свог Мисирца.
3 His master saw that the LORD was with him, and that the LORD made all that he did prosper in his hand.
И господар његов виде да је Господ с њим и да све што ради Господ води у напредак у руци његовој.
4 Joseph found favor 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.
И Јосиф стече милост у њега, и двораше га; а најпосле постави га над целим домом својим, и шта год имаше њему даде у руке.
5 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.
А кад га постави над домом својим и над свим што имаше, од тада Господ благослови дом тога Мисирца ради Јосифа; и благослов Господњи беше на свему што имаше у кући и у пољу.
6 He left all that he had in Joseph’s hand. He did not concern himself with anything, except for the food which he ate. Joseph was well-built and handsome.
И остави у Јосифовим рукама све што имаше, и не разбираше низашта осим јела које јеђаше. А Јосиф беше лепог стаса и лепог лица.
7 After these things, his master’s wife set her eyes on Joseph; and she said, “Lie with me.”
И догоди се после, те се жена господара његовог загледа у Јосифа, и рече: Лези са мном.
8 But he refused, and said to his master’s wife, “Behold, my master does not know what is with me in the house, and he has put all that he has into my hand.
А он не хте, него рече жени господара свог: Ето господар мој не разбира низашта шта је у кући, него шта год има даде мени у руке.
9 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?”
Ни сам није већи од мене у овој кући, и ништа не крије од мене осим тебе, јер си му жена; па како бих учинио тако грдно зло и Богу згрешио?
10 As she spoke to Joseph day by day, he did not listen to her, to lie by her, or to be with her.
И она говораше такве речи Јосифу сваки дан, али је не послуша да легне с њом ни да се бави код ње.
11 About this time, he went into the house to do his work, and there were none of the men of the house inside.
А један дан кад дође Јосиф у кућу да ради свој посао, а не беше никога од домашњих у кући,
12 She caught him by his garment, saying, “Lie with me!” He left his garment in her hand, and ran outside.
Она га ухвати за хаљину говорећи: Лези са мном. Али он оставивши јој у рукама хаљину своју побеже и отиде.
13 When she saw that he had left his garment in her hand, and had run outside,
А кад она виде где јој остави у рукама хаљину своју и побеже,
14 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.
Викну чељад своју, и рече им говорећи: Гледајте, довео нам је човека Јеврејина да нас срамоти; дође к мени да легне са мном, а ја повиках гласно;
15 When he heard that I lifted up my voice and cried, he left his garment by me, and ran outside.”
А он кад чу где вичем, остави хаљину своју код мене и побеже и отиде.
16 She laid up his garment by her, until his master came home.
И она остави хаљину његову код себе док му господар дође кући.
17 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,
А тада му рече овако говорећи: Слуга Јеврејин, кога си нам довео, дође к мени да ме осрамоти;
18 and as I lifted up my voice and cried, he left his garment by me, and ran outside.”
А ја повиках гласно, те он остави хаљину своју код мене и побеже.
19 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.
А кад господар његов чу речи жене своје где му рече: То ми је учинио слуга твој, разгневи се врло.
20 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.
И господар Јосифов ухвати га, и баци га у тамницу, где лежаху сужњи царски: и би онде у тамници.
21 But the LORD was with Joseph, and showed kindness to him, and gave him favor in the sight of the keeper of the prison.
Али Господ беше с Јосифом и рашири милост своју над њим и учини те омиле тамничару.
22 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.
И повери тамничар Јосифу све сужње у тамници, и шта је год требало онде чинити он уређиваше.
23 The keeper of the prison did not look after anything that was under his hand, because the LORD was with him; and that which he did, the LORD made it prosper.
И тамничар не надгледаше ништа што беше у Јосифовој руци, јер Господ беше с њим; и шта год чињаше, Господ вођаше у напредак.
