< Genesis 39 >
1 And Joseph has been brought down to Egypt, and Potiphar, a eunuch of Pharaoh, head of the executioners, an Egyptian man, buys him out of the hands of the Ishmaelites who have brought him there.
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 YHWH is with Joseph, and he is a prosperous man, and he is in the house of his lord the Egyptian,
E o Senhor estava com José, e foi varão prospero; e estava na casa de seu senhor egypcio.
3 and his lord sees that YHWH is with him, and all that he is doing YHWH is causing 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 finds grace in his eyes and serves him, and he appoints him over his house, and all that he has he has given 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 comes to pass from the time that he has appointed him over his house, and over all that he has, that YHWH blesses the house of the Egyptian for Joseph’s sake, and the blessing of YHWH is on all that he has, 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 leaves all that he has in the hand of Joseph, and he has not known anything that he has, except the bread which he is eating. And Joseph is of a handsome form, and of a handsome appearance.
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 comes to pass after these things, that his lord’s wife lifts up her eyes to Joseph and says, “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 and he refuses and says to his lord’s wife, “Behold, my lord has not known what [is] with me 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 none is greater in this house than I, and he has not withheld from me anything, except you, because you [are] his wife; and how will I do this great evil? Then I have sinned 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 comes to pass at her speaking to Joseph day [by] day, that he has not listened to her, to lie near her, 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 and it comes to pass about this day, that he goes into the house to do his work, and there is 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 and she catches him by his garment, saying, “Lie with me”; and he leaves his garment in her hand, and flees, and goes outside.
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 comes to pass, when she sees that he has left his garment in her hand, and flees outside,
E aconteceu que, vendo ella que deixara o seu vestido em sua mão, e fugira para fóra,
14 that she calls for the men of her house, and speaks to them, saying, “See, he has brought a man to us, a Hebrew, to play with us; he has come in to me, to lie with me, and I call 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 comes to pass, when he hears that I have lifted up my voice and call, that he leaves his garment near me, and flees, and goes outside.”
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 places his garment near her, until the coming in of his lord to his house.
E ella poz o seu vestido perto de si, até que o seu senhor veiu á sua casa.
17 And she speaks to him according to these words, saying, “The Hebrew servant whom you have brought to us, has come in to me to play with 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 comes to pass, when I lift my voice and call, that he leaves his garment near me, and flees outside.”
E aconteceu que, levantando eu a minha voz e gritando, elle deixou o seu vestido commigo, e fugiu para fóra.
19 And it comes to pass, when his lord hears the words of his wife, which she has spoken to him, saying, “According to these things has your servant done to me,” that his anger burns;
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 takes him, and puts him to the round-house, a place where the king’s prisoners [are] bound; and he is there in the round-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 YHWH is with Joseph, and stretches out kindness to him, and puts his grace in the eyes of the chief of the round-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 round-house gives into the hand of Joseph all the prisoners who [are] in the round-house, and of all that they are doing there, he has been doer;
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 round-house does not see anything under his hand, because YHWH [is] with him, and that which he is doing YHWH is causing to 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.
