Genesis 39
1 Now Ioseph was brought downe into Egypt: and Potiphar an Eunuche of Pharaohs (and his chiefe stewarde an Egyptian) bought him at the hande of the Ishmeelites, which had brought him thither.
Alò, yo te pran Joseph desann an Égypte. Epi Potiphar, yon ofisye Farawon, kòmandan nan gad yo, te achte li nan men Izmayelit yo, ki te fè l desann la.
2 And the Lord was with Ioseph, and he was a man that prospered and was in the house of his master the Egyptian.
SENYÈ a te avèk Joseph, e li te byen reyisi. Li te lakay mèt li, Ejipsyen an.
3 And his master sawe that the Lord was with him, and that the Lord made all that hee did to prosper in his hande.
Alò mèt li a te wè ke SENYÈ a te avèk li, e ke li te fè tout sa li te antreprann byen reyisi nan men l.
4 So Ioseph founde fauour in his sight, and serued him: and he made him ruler of his house, and put all that he had in his hand.
Konsa, Joseph te twouve favè nan zye li, e li te devni sèvitè pèsonèl li. Li te fè li chèf an tèt tout lakay li, e tout sa ke li te posede, li te mete yo sou chaj li.
5 And from that time that he had made him ruler ouer his house and ouer all that he had, the Lord blessed the Egyptians house for Iosephs sake: and the blessing of the Lord was vpon all that he had in the house, and in the fielde.
Epi li te rive ke depi lè sa a li te fè li chèf lakay li, ak sou tout sa li te posede, ke SENYÈ a te beni lakay Ejipsyen an akoz Joseph. Benediksyon SENYÈ a te sou tout sa li te genyen, ni nan kay la, ni nan chan an.
6 Therefore he left all that he had in Iosephs hand, and tooke accompt of nothing, that was with him, saue onely of the bread, which he did eate. And Ioseph was a faire person, and well fauoured.
Li te kite tout sa li te gen sou chaj Joseph. Konsa, li pa t okipe tèt li avèk anyen sof ke manje ke li te manje. Alò, Joseph te yon bo gason, ni nan fòm li, ni nan aparans li.
7 Nowe therefore after these thinges, his masters wife cast her eyes vpon Ioseph, and saide, Lye with me.
Li te vin rive apre evènman sa yo, ke madanm Potiphar a, te gade Joseph avèk anvi. Konsa, li te di: “Vin kouche avè m.”
8 But he refused and said to his masters wife, Beholde, my master knoweth not what he hath in the house with me, but hath committed all that he hath to mine hande.
Men Joseph te refize. Li te di a madanm mèt li a: “Mèt mwen pa menm okipe li pou anyen ki nan kay la, e li te mete tout sa li posede sou chaj mwen.
9 There is no man greater in this house then I: neither hath he kept any thing from me, but only thee, because thou art his wife: how then can I do this great wickednes and so sinne against God?
Nanpwen pèsòn nan kay sa a ki pi gran ke mwen, e li pa refize m anyen, sof ke ou menm, paske ou se madanm li. Kijan konsa, mwen ta kapab fè gwo mal sa a, e peche kont Bondye menm?”
10 And albeit she spake to Ioseph day by day, yet he hearkened not vnto her, to lye with her, or to be in her company.
Pandan li te pale avèk Joseph jou aprè jou, Joseph pa t koute l menm pou kesyon kouche avèk l, oswa pou li ta rete avè l.
11 Then on a certaine day Ioseph entred into the house, to doe his businesse: and there was no man of the houshold in the house:
Alò li vin rive yon jou ke li te antre nan kay la pou fè travay li, e pa t gen lòt nan ouvriye lakay yo ki te andedan kay la.
12 Therefore she caught him by his garmet, saying, Sleepe with me: but he left his garment in her hand and fled, and got him out.
Konsa, Madanm nan te kenbe li pa vètman li. Li te di: “Kouche avè m!” Men li te kite vètman li nan men l, e te sove ale deyò.
13 Nowe when she sawe that he had left his garment in her hand, and was fled out,
Lè Madanm nan te vin wè ke li te kite vètman li nan men l, e li te kouri deyò,
14 She called vnto the men of her house, and tolde them, saying, Beholde, he hath brought in an Ebrewe vnto vs to mocke vs: who came in to me for to haue slept with me: but I cryed with a loude voyce.
li te rele tout gason ouvriye lakay li yo, e li te di yo: “Ou wè sa, li pote bannou yon Ebre ki pou vin fè jwèt avèk nou. Li te vin antre sou mwen pou kouche avè m, men mwen te rele fò.
15 And when he heard that I lift vp my voice and cryed, he left his garment with me, and fled away, and got him out.
Lè li tande ke m te leve vwa m pou rele fò, li te kite vètman li bò kote mwen, e li te sove ale kouri deyò.”
16 So she layde vp his garment by her, vntill her lord came home.
Konsa, li te kenbe vètman an kote li jiskaske mèt li te rive nan kay la.
17 Then she tolde him according to these words, saying, The Ebrew seruat, which thou hast brought vnto vs, came in to me, to mocke me.
Alò, li te pale avèk li ak pawòl sa yo: “Esklav Ebre ke ou te mennen bannou an, te antre kote mwen pou fè spò avè m,
18 But assoone as I lift vp my voyce and cried, he left his garment with me, and fled out.
men lè m te leve vwa m pou te rele fò, li te kite vètman li bò kote mwen pou te sove ale deyò.”
19 Then when his master heard the wordes of his wife, which she tolde him, saying, After this maner did thy seruant to me, his anger was kindled.
Alò, lè mèt la te tande pawòl a madanm li yo, lè li te pale pou di: “Men sa esklav ou a te fè m nan,” li te vin brile avèk kòlè.
20 And Iosephs master tooke him and put him in prison, in the place, where the kings prisoners lay bounde: and there he was in prison.
Konsa, mèt Joseph la te pran li e te mete li nan prizon, nan plas kote prizonye ki pou wa yo te ye. Epi li te la nan prizon an.
21 But the Lord was with Ioseph, and shewed him mercie, and got him fauour in the sight of the master of the prison.
Men SENYÈ a te avèk Joseph. Li te fè li gras, e Li te fè li vin gen favè nan zye a chèf prizon an.
22 And the keeper of the prison committed to Iosephs hande all the prisoners that were in the prison, and whatsoeuer they did there, that did he.
Chèf Kasèl la te fè Joseph responsab tout prizonye yo ki te nan prizon an, jiskaske nenpòt sa ki te fèt ladann, li te vin responsab.
23 And the keeper of the prison looked vnto nothing that was vnder his hande, seeing that the Lord was with him: for whatsoeuer he did, the Lord made it to prosper.
Chèf Kasèl la pa t sipèvize anyen ki te anba direksyon Joseph, paske SENYÈ a te avèk li, paske nenpòt sa li te fè, SENYÈ a te fè l pwospere.
