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 Egito, e Potifar, eunuco de faraó, capitão da guarda, varão egípcio, 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 próspero; e estava na casa de seu senhor egípcio.
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 ele, 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 ele o pôs 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 pusera sobre a sua casa, e sobre tudo o que tinha, o Senhor abençoou a casa do egípcio 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 ele, mais do que do pão que comia. E José era formoso de parecer, e formoso à 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 destas coisas que a mulher de seu senhor pôs os seus olhos em José, e disse: Deita-te comigo.
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 ele recusou, e disse à mulher do seu senhor: Eis que o meu senhor não sabe do que há em casa comigo, 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.”
Ninguém há maior do que eu nesta casa, e nenhuma coisa me vedou, senão a ti, porquanto tu és sua mulher; como pois faria eu este tamanho mal, e pecaria 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, falando ela cada dia a José, e não lhe dando ele ouvidos, para deitar-se com ela, e estar com ela,
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,
Sucedeu num certo dia que veio à 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 ela lhe pegou pelo seu vestido, dizendo: Deita-te comigo. E ele deixou o seu vestido na mão dela, e fugiu, e saiu para fora.
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 ela que deixara o seu vestido em sua mão, e fugira para fora,
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 falou-lhes, dizendo: vede, trouxe-nos o varão hebreu, para escarnecer de nós; entrou a mim para deitar-se comigo, 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 ele que eu levantava a minha voz e gritava, deixou o seu vestido comigo, e fugiu, e saiu para fora.
16 And she places his garment near her, until the coming in of his lord to his house.
E ela pôs o seu vestido perto de si, até que o seu senhor veio à 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 falou-lhe conforme as mesmas palavras, dizendo: veio a mim o servo hebreu, 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, ele deixou o seu vestido comigo, e fugiu para fora.
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 falava, dizendo: Conforme a estas mesmas palavras me fez teu servo; a sua ira se acendeu.
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 cárcere, no lugar onde os presos do rei estavam presos; assim esteve ali na casa do cárcere.
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 ele 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 cárcere, e ele 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 dele; porquanto o Senhor estava com ele, e tudo o que fazia o Senhor prosperava.
