Genesis 39
1 And Joseph was brought down to Egypt; and Potiphar, a chamberlain of Pharaoh, the captain of the life-guard, an Egyptian, bought him of the hand of the Ishmaelites who had brought him down thither.
Mwet Ishmael elos usalla Joseph nu Egypt ac kukakunulla nu sel Potiphar, sie sin mwet fulat lal tokosra, su sifen mwet topang su taran inkul sin tokosra.
2 And Jehovah was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man; and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian.
LEUM GOD El welul Joseph ac oru tuh ma nukewa el oru fahla wona ouiya. El muta yurin mwet kacto lal, sie mwet Egypt,
3 And his master saw that Jehovah was with him, and that Jehovah made all that he did to prosper in his hand.
su liye tuh na LEUM GOD El welul Joseph, ac LEUM GOD El oru in wo ouiyal Joseph in ma nukewa el oru.
4 And Joseph found favour in his eyes, and attended on him; and he set him over his house, and all that he had he gave into his hand.
Potiphar el insewowo sel ac oru tuh elan mwet tutafpo lal. Ouinge el likilya elan leum fin lohm sel ac ma nukewa lal.
5 And it came to pass from the time he had set him over his house and all that he had, that Jehovah blessed the Egyptian's house for Joseph's sake; and the blessing of Jehovah was on all that he had in the house and in the field.
Tukun pacl sac lac, LEUM GOD El akinsewowoye sou lun mwet Egypt sac ac ma nukewa in lohm sel ac in ima lal, ke sripal Joseph.
6 And he left all that he had in Joseph's hand, and took cognizance of nothing with him, save the bread that he ate. And Joseph was of a beautiful form and of a beautiful countenance.
Potiphar el fuhleang ma nukewa lal nu ye karinginyuk lal Joseph, ac el tia elya ke kutena ma sayen in sulela ma nal sifacna. Joseph el arulana oasku ac wo lumahl,
7 And it came to pass after these things, that his master's wife cast her eyes on Joseph, and said, Lie with me!
ac tok kutu, mutan kien leum sac el mutawauk in lungseyak Joseph ac siyuk elan som oan yorol.
8 But he refused, and said to his master's wife, Behold, my master takes cognizance of nothing with me: what is in the house, and all that he has, he has given into my hand.
Joseph el srangesr, ac el fahk nu sin mutan sac, “Nge, wangin elya lun leum luk ke kutena ma in lohm sel, mweyen el lulalfongiyu. El se ngan karingin ma nukewa lal.
9 There is none greater in this house than I; neither has he withheld anything from me but thee, because thou art his wife; and how should I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?
Oasr ku luk in lohm se inge oana el, ac wangin kutena ma el sruok nu sik sayom. Fuka tuh ngan oru kain elahwet ingan ac orekma koluk lain God?”
10 And it came to pass as she spoke to Joseph day by day and he hearkened not to her, to lie with her [and] to be with her,
Mutan sac el ne kwafe nu sel Joseph pingana len elan oan yorol, a Joseph el tiana som welul oan.
11 that on a certain day he went into the house to do his business, and there was none of the men of the house there in the house.
Tusruktu sie len ah, ke Joseph el som in oru orekma lal in lohm sac, wangin mwet kulansap saya oasr we.
12 Then she caught him by his garment, saying, Lie with me! But he left his garment in her hand, and fled and ran out.
Mutan sac sruokya nuknuk lal Joseph, ac fahk, “Fahsru oan yuruk.” A Joseph el kaingla nu likin lohm sac, sisla na nuknuk lal ah yurin mutan sac.
13 And it came to pass, when she saw that he had left his garment in her hand and had fled forth,
Ke mutan sac el liye lah Joseph el sisla nuknuk lal ah ac kaingla nu lik ah,
14 that she called to the men of her house, and spoke to them, saying, See, he has brought in a Hebrew man to us, to mock us: he came in to me, to lie with me; and I cried with a loud voice;
el pang nu sin mwet kulansap lal lohm sac, ac fahk, “Ngetma liye ma se nge! Mwet Hebrew se ma mukul tumuk ah use nu lohm uh el aklusrongtenye kut. El utyak nu infukil sik ah, ac srike in sruinkuiyu, tuh nga liksrenina wowoyak ke kuiyuk.
15 and it came to pass when he heard that I lifted up my voice and cried, that he left his garment with me, and fled and went out.
Ke el lohng lah nga wowoyak, na el kaing nu likinuma, sisla nuknuk se lal inge siskuk.”
16 And she laid his garment by her until his lord came home.
Mutan sac sruokya na nuknuk sac nwe ke na leum se lal Joseph ah tuku.
17 And she spoke to him according to these words, saying, The Hebrew bondman that thou hast brought to us came in to me to mock me;
Na el srumunang pac sramsram sac nu sel. El fahk, “Mwet kohs Hebrew sac, ma kom use nu inge ah, el utyak nu infukil sik uh ac nunku elan sruinkuiyu.
18 and it came to pass as I lifted up my voice and cried, that he left his garment with me, and fled forth.
Tusruktu nga wowoyak, na el kaingla nu likinuma, sisla nuknuk lal ah siskuk.”
19 And it came to pass when his lord heard the words of his wife which she spoke to him, saying, After this manner did thy bondman to me, that his wrath was kindled.
Ke leum se lal Joseph el lohng ma mutan kial ac fahk inge, el foloyak,
20 And Joseph's lord took him and put him into the tower-house, [the] place where the king's prisoners were confined; and he was there in the tower-house.
ac sap sruhu Joseph ac sisiyang el nu in presin, yen mwet kapir lun tokosra kapir we. Na el mutana we.
21 And Jehovah was with Joseph, and extended mercy to him, and gave him favour in the eyes of the chief of the tower-house.
Tusruktu LEUM GOD El welul Joseph ac akinsewowoyal, pwanang mwet liyaung presin el kulang nu sel.
22 And the chief of the tower-house committed to Joseph's hand all the prisoners that were in the tower-house; and whatever they had to do there he did.
El likilya Joseph elan sifen mwet kapir nukewa, ac sang elan fosrngakin ma nukewa ma orek in presin.
23 The chief of the tower-house looked not to anything under his hand, because Jehovah was with him; and what he did, Jehovah made it prosper.
Mwet liyaung presin el tia fosrngakin kutena ma su oan ye karinginyuk lal Joseph, mweyen LEUM GOD El welul Joseph ac oru in wo ouiyal ke ma nukewa el oru.
