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.
E José foi levado ao Egypto, e Potifar, eunucho de Pharaó, capitão da guarda, varão egypcio, comprou-o da mão dos ishmaelitas que o tinham levado lá.
2 And Jehovah was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man; and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian.
E o Senhor estava com José, e foi varão prospero; e estava na casa de seu senhor egypcio.
3 And his master saw that Jehovah was with him, and that Jehovah made all that he did to prosper in his hand.
Vendo pois o seu senhor que o Senhor estava com elle, e tudo o que fazia o Senhor prosperava em sua mão,
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.
José achou graça em seus olhos, e servia-o; e elle o poz sobre a sua casa, e entregou na sua mão tudo o que tinha.
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.
E aconteceu que, desde que o puzera sobre a sua casa, e sobre tudo o que tinha, o Senhor abençoou a casa do egypcio por amor de José; e a benção do Senhor foi sobre tudo o que tinha, na casa e no campo.
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.
E deixou tudo o que tinha na mão de José, de maneira que de nada sabia do que estava com elle, mais do que do pão que comia. E José era formoso de parecer, e formoso á vista.
7 And it came to pass after these things, that his master's wife cast her eyes on Joseph, and said, Lie with me!
E aconteceu depois d'estas coisas que a mulher de seu senhor poz os seus olhos em José, e disse: Deita-te commigo.
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.
Porém elle recusou, e disse á mulher do seu senhor: Eis que o meu senhor não sabe do que ha em casa commigo, e entregou em minha mão tudo o que tem
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?
Ninguem ha maior do que eu n'esta casa, e nenhuma coisa me vedou, senão a ti, porquanto tu és sua mulher; como pois faria eu este tamanho mal, e peccaria contra Deus?
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,
E aconteceu que, fallando ella cada dia a José, e não lhe dando elle ouvidos, para deitar-se com ella, e estar com ella,
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.
Succedeu n'um certo dia que veiu á casa para fazer seu serviço; e nenhum dos da casa estava ali em casa;
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.
E ella lhe pegou pelo seu vestido, dizendo: Deita-te commigo. E elle deixou o seu vestido na mão d'ella, e fugiu, e saiu para fóra.
13 And it came to pass, when she saw that he had left his garment in her hand and had fled forth,
E aconteceu que, vendo ella que deixara o seu vestido em sua mão, e fugira para fóra,
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;
Chamou aos homens de sua casa, e fallou-lhes, dizendo: Vêde, trouxe-nos o varão hebreu, para escarnecer de nós; entrou a mim para deitar-se commigo, e eu gritei com grande voz,
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.
E aconteceu que, ouvindo elle que eu levantava a minha voz e gritava, deixou o seu vestido commigo, e fugiu, e saiu para fóra.
16 And she laid his garment by her until his lord came home.
E ella poz o seu vestido perto de si, até que o seu senhor veiu á sua casa.
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;
Então fallou-lhe conforme as mesmas palavras, dizendo: Veiu a mim o servo hebreo, que nos trouxeste para escarnecer de nim;
18 and it came to pass as I lifted up my voice and cried, that he left his garment with me, and fled forth.
E aconteceu que, levantando eu a minha voz e gritando, elle deixou o seu vestido commigo, e fugiu para fóra.
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.
E aconteceu que, ouvindo o seu senhor as palavras de sua mulher, que lhe fallava, dizendo: Conforme a estas mesmas palavras me fez teu servo; a sua ira se accendeu.
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.
E o senhor de José o tomou, e o entregou na casa do carcere, no logar onde os presos do rei estavam presos; assim esteve ali na casa do carcere.
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.
O Senhor, porém, estava com José, e estendeu sobre elle a sua benignidade, e deu-lhe graça aos olhos do carcereiro-mór.
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.
E o carcereiro-mór entregou na mão de José todos os presos que estavam na casa do carcere, e elle fazia tudo o que se fazia ali.
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.
E o carcereiro-mór não teve cuidado de nenhuma coisa que estava na mão d'elle; porquanto o Senhor estava com elle, e tudo o que fazia o Senhor prosperava.
