< Genesis 39 >

1 Now Joseph was brought down to Egypt, and Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh's, the captain of the guard, an Egyptian, bought him from the Ishmaelites who had brought him down there.
Joseph teh Ishmael taminaw koe Izip ram a thokhai awh teh, Izip siangpahrang Faro kut rahim imkaringkung lah kaawm e Potiphar ni a ran.
2 And YHWH was with Joseph, and he became a successful man. And he was in the household of his master the Egyptian.
BAWIPA teh Joseph koe ao teh, ahni teh a lam ka cawn e tami lah ao teh Izip tami a bawipa im vah ao.
3 And his master saw that God was with him, and that God made everything that he did to succeed in his hands.
A bawipa ni BAWIPA teh ahni koe a o, a hnosak tangkuem dawk a lamcawn tie hah a panue.
4 So Joseph found favor in the sight of his master, and attended him, and he made him overseer of his house, and all that he had he put under his authority.
Joseph teh a bawipa e a lungyouk lah thaw ouk a tawk. A bawipa ni a imkaringkung kacue lah a ta teh, a tawn e hnonaw pueng ahnie kâtawnnae rahim koung a ta pouh.
5 And it came about that from the time that he made him overseer of his household and over all that he had, that YHWH blessed the Egyptian's house because of Joseph; and the blessing of YHWH was on all that he had, in the house and in the field.
Hahoi, imkaringkung lah a ta hnukkhu, BAWIPA ni Joseph pawlawk hoi Izip imthungkhu hah yawhawi a poe.
6 So he left everything that he had in Joseph's care. He did not concern himself with anything, except for the food which he ate. Now Joseph was handsome in form and appearance.
A tawn e pueng hah Joseph kut dawk be a ta pouh teh, a ca e vaiyei hloilah teh ahni koe kaawm e hnonaw pueng hah be a poe. Joseph teh a tungtang kahawi e lah ao teh a mei hai a hawi.
7 And it came to pass after these things that his master's wife took notice of Joseph and she said, "Sleep with me."
Hathnukkhu, a bawipa e yu ni Joseph hah a noe teh, na ipkhai leih ti hoi pou a pasawt.
8 But he refused, and said to his master's wife, "Look, my master does not concern himself with anything in his house, and he has put all that he has into my care.
Hatei ngai pouh hoeh. A bawipa e yu koevah, khenhaw! ka bawipa ni hete im dawkvah, bang hno maw kaawm tie panuek hoeh, a tawn e naw pueng ka kut dawk koung a ta.
9 There is no one greater in this household than I am, nor has he kept back anything from me but you, since you are his wife. How then can I do such a great evil, and sin against God?"
Hete im dawk kai hlak ka len e apihai awm hoeh. A yu na tho patetlah nang hloilah kai hane a pasoung hoeh e banghai awm hoeh. Hatdawkvah, hethloilah kalen e thoenae hoi yonnae heh Cathut taranlahoi bangtelamaw khuet ka sak han vaw, telah ati.
10 And although she spoke to Joseph day after day, he did not listen to her to sleep with her or to be with her.
Hahoi, hnin touh hnukkhu hnin touh, Joseph hah a pasawt nakunghai a ikhai hane teh ngai pouh hoeh.
11 Now it happened about this time that he went into the house to do his work, and there were none of the men of the house inside.
Hatei, a hnin hnin touh teh, Joseph imthungkhu thaw tawk hanelah a kâen teh, hatnae tueng dawk imthungkhu tami buet touh hai la awm hoeh.
12 She grabbed him by his garment, saying, "Sleep with me." And he left his garment in her hand and ran outside.
Hahoi teh, napui ni na ipkhai leih telah a angki dawk a kuet pouh teh, a kut dawk angki pak rading teh alawilah a yawng takhai.
13 When she saw that he had left his garment in her hand and had run outside,
Hahoi teh, a angki a kut dawk pak a rading teh a yawng takhai tie a panue toteh,
14 she called to the men of her house, and spoke to them, saying, "Look, he has brought in a Hebrew to us to mock us. He came in to me to sleep with me, and I cried with a loud voice.
a im kaawmnaw hah a kaw teh, khenhaw! kai na kaya sak hanelah hete Hebru tami ni kai na yonkhai hanelah imthungkhu na kâen sin teh thayung hoi ka hram pouh.
15 It happened, when he heard that I raised my voice and cried out, that he left his garment by me and ran outside."
Hahoi, ka lawk hoi thayung hoi ka hram toteh, kama koe a angki pak a rading teh a yawng takhai telah ati.
16 She left his garment by her, until his master came home.
A bawipa a tho hoehroukrak a hnicu teh ama koevah pou a hruek.
17 And she told him the same story, saying, "The Hebrew servant, whom you have brought to us, came in to me to mock me, and said to me, 'Let me sleep with you.'
Hahoi teh a vâ koe telah a dei pouh. Hete Hebru tami san kai koe na thokhai e heh, yeiraipo sak hanelah hoi kai koe na kâen sin.
18 But when I raised my voice and cried out, he left his garment beside me and ran outside."
Hahoi, lawk hoi tha hoi ka hram tahma vah, a khohna a yawng takhai telah ati.
19 And it happened when his master heard the words that his wife spoke to him, saying, "This is what your servant did to me," that he became furious.
Hahoi, a bawipa koe na san ni hettelah na sak tie a yu ni a dei e lawk hah a thai toteh a lungkhuek.
20 Then Joseph's master took him and put him into the prison, the place where the king's prisoners were bound, and he was there in prison.
Hottelah a bawipa ni Joseph a ceikhai teh thongim siangpahrang ni tami khik katek hoi ouk tanae thongim thung a paung awh.
21 But YHWH was with Joseph and showed him kindness and gave him favor in the sight of the keeper of the prison.
Hateiteh, BAWIPA teh Joseph koe ao teh, a lathueng vah lungmanae a tawn teh thongim ka ring e hmalah minhmai kahawi a hmu sak.
22 The keeper of the prison put Joseph in charge of all the prisoners who were in the prison; he was made responsible for everything that was done there.
Hahoi teh, thongim karingkung ni thongkabawtnaw pueng hah Joseph kut dawk koung a ta teh, haw e sak e naw teh Joseph e tawk sak e lah koung a coung.
23 The keeper of the prison paid no attention to anything that was under his supervision, because God was with him, and made everything he did successful.
BAWIPA teh ahni koe ao teh, a lamcawn sak dawkvah, thongim karingkung ni Joseph e kâtawnnae rahim kaawmnaw pueng hah banghai khen awh hoeh toe.
