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.
Yeroo kanatti Yoosef Gibxitti geeffamee ture. Phoxiifaaraan namichi Gibxi qondaalli Faraʼoon kan ajajaa waardiyyaa ture sun Ishmaaʼeeloota achi isa geessan irraa isa bitate.
2 And Jehovah was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man; and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian.
Yoosefis waan Waaqayyo isa wajjin tureef nama milkaaʼaa taʼe; innis mana gooftaa isaa namicha biyya Gibxi sanaa jiraate.
3 And his master saw that Jehovah was with him, and that Jehovah made all that he did to prosper in his hand.
Gooftaan isaas akka Waaqayyo isa wajjin jiruu fi akka Waaqayyo waan inni hojjetu hunda keessatti isa milkoomse arge;
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.
Yoosefis fuula gooftaa isaa duratti fudhatama argatee hojjetaa isaa amanamaa taʼe. Phoxiifaaraanis mana isaa irratti isa muude; waan qabu hundumas akka inni eeguuf imaanaa itti kenne.
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.
Gaafa inni mana isaatii fi waan inni qabu hunda irratti isa muudee jalqabee Waaqayyo sababii Yoosefiif jedhee mana namicha Gibxi sanaa eebbise. Eebbi Waaqayyoos waan Phoxiifaaraan manaa fi alaa qabu hunda irra ture.
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.
Kanaafuu Phoxiifaaraan waan qabu hunda harka Yoosef jala galche; innis waan nyaatu qofa malee qabeenya isaa tokko illee hin beeku ture. Yoosef dhaaba toleessaa fi miidhagaa ture;
7 And it came to pass after these things, that his master's wife cast her eyes on Joseph, and said, Lie with me!
niitiin gooftaa isaas waan kana booddee ija ishee Yoosef irra buufattee, “Kottuu na bira gaʼi!” jetteen.
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.
Inni garuu didee akkana isheen jedhe; “Kunoo, gooftaan koo waan mana keessa jiru tokko illee hin beeku; inni waan qabu hunda natti kenneera.
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?
Mana kana keessatti namni na caalu tokko iyyuu hin jiru. Sababii ati niitii isaa taateef siʼi malee wanni gooftaan koo natti hin kennin tokko iyyuu hin jiru. Yoos ani akkamittan waan hamaa akkasii raawwachuudhaan Waaqatti cubbuu hojjedha ree?”
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,
Isheen guyyuma guyyaan Yoosefitti dubbattu iyyuu, inni ishee bira gaʼuu yookaan ishee biratti argamuu illee ni dide.
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.
Gaaf tokko Yoosef hojii isaa hojjechuuf mana seene; tajaajiltoota warra mana sanaa keessaas namni tokko iyyuu achi hin turre.
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.
Isheenis wayyaa isaa qabattee, “Kottuutii na bira gaʼi!” jetteen. Inni garuu wayyaa isaa isheetti gad lakkisee fiigee manaa baʼe.
13 And it came to pass, when she saw that he had left his garment in her hand and had fled forth,
Isheenis yommuu akka inni wayyaa isaa isheetti gad lakkisee fiigee manaa baʼe argitetti,
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;
hojjettoota mana ishee waamtee akkana jetteen; “Kunoo, inni Ibricha kana akka nutti taphatuuf fide! Inni na bira gaʼuuf natti ol seennaan ani sagalee guddaan iyye.
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.
Innis gargaarsa barbaachaaf iyyuu koo dhageenyaan wayyaa isaa na biratti dhiisee fiigee manaa baʼe.”
16 And she laid his garment by her until his lord came home.
Isheen hamma gooftaan isaa galutti wayyaa isaa of bira keesse.
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;
Akkana jettees oduu kana isatti himte: “Garbichi Ibrichi ati nuu fidde sun natti taphachuuf natti ol seene.
18 and it came to pass as I lifted up my voice and cried, that he left his garment with me, and fled forth.
Garuu akkuma ani gargaarsa barbaachaaf iyyeen inni wayyaa isaa na biratti dhiisee fiigee manaa baʼe.”
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.
Gooftaan isaa yommuu oduu niitiin isaa, “Wanni garbichi kee na godhe kana” jettee itti himte sana dhagaʼetti aaree gubate.
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.
Gooftaan isaas Yoosefin fuudhee mana hidhaa iddoo hidhamtoonni mootichaa itti eegaman keessa buuse. Taʼus yeroo Yoosef mana hidhaa keessa turetti,
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.
Waaqayyo isa wajjin ture; fuula ajajaa mana hidhaa sanaa durattis gaarummaa isaa itti argisiise; akka fudhatamas argatu godhe.
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.
Ajajaan mana hidhaa sunis namoota mana hidhaa jiran hunda irratti Yoosefin muude; waan achitti hojjetamu hunda irrattis itti gaafatamaa isa godhe.
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.
Sababii Waaqayyo isa wajjin turee fi waan inni hojjetu kam iyyuu isaa milkeesseef ajajaan mana hidhaa sun waan itti gaafatama Yoosef jala jiru hundaaf yaaddoo tokko illee hin qabu ture.
