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.

Y descendido José a Egipto, compróle Potifar, eunuco de Faraón, capitán de los de la guardia, varón Egipciano, de mano de los Ismaelitas, que le habían llevado allá.

2 And YHWH was with Joseph, and he became a successful man. And he was in the household of his master the Egyptian.

Mas Jehová fue con José, y fue varón prosperado: y estaba en la casa de su señor el Egipciano.

3 And his master saw that God was with him, and that God made everything that he did to succeed in his hands.

Y vio su señor que Jehová era con él, y que todo lo que él hacía, Jehová lo prosperaba en su mano.

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.

Así halló José gracia en sus ojos, y servíale: y él le hizo mayordomo de su casa, y le entregó en poder todo lo que tenía.

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.

Y aconteció, que desde entonces que le dio el cargo de su casa, y de todo lo que tenía, Jehová bendijo la casa del Egipciano a causa de José, y fue la bendición de Jehová sobre todo lo que tenía así en casa como en el campo.

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.

Y dejó todo lo que tenía en la mano de José, ni con él sabía nada más que del pan que comía: y José era de hermoso semblante, y bello de vista.

7 And it came to pass after these things that his master's wife took notice of Joseph and she said, "Sleep with me."

Y aconteció después de esto, que la mujer de su señor alzó sus ojos sobre José, y dijo: Duerme conmigo.

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.

Y él no quiso; y dijo a la mujer de su señor: He aquí que mi señor no sabe conmigo lo que hay en casa, que todo lo que tiene ha puesto en mi mano.

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?"

No hay otro mayor que yo en esta casa, y ninguna cosa me ha defendido sino a ti, por cuanto tú eres su mujer: ¿cómo pues haría yo este grande mal, que pecaría contra Dios?

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.

Y fue, que hablando ella a José cada día, y no la escuchando él para acostarse junto a ella, para estar con ella:

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.

Aconteció que él vino un día como los otros a casa para hacer su oficio, y no había nadie de los de casa allí en casa.

12 She grabbed him by his garment, saying, "Sleep with me." And he left his garment in her hand and ran outside.

Y ella le tomó por su ropa, diciendo: Duerme conmigo. Entonces él dejóle su ropa en las manos, y huyó, y salióse fuera.

13 When she saw that he had left his garment in her hand and had run outside,

Y fue, que como ella vio que le había dejado su ropa en sus manos, y había huido fuera.

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.

Llamó a los de casa, y hablóles, diciendo: Mirád; hános traído un hombre Hebreo, para que hiciese burla de nosotros. Vino a mí para dormir conmigo, y yo di grandes voces.

15 It happened, when he heard that I raised my voice and cried out, that he left his garment by me and ran outside."

Y viendo él, que yo alzaba la voz, y gritaba, dejó junto a mí su ropa, y huyó, y salióse fuera.

16 She left his garment by her, until his master came home.

Y ella puso su ropa cerca de sí, hasta que vino su señor a su casa:

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.'

Y ella le habló semejantes palabras, diciendo: Vino a mí el siervo Hebreo, que nos trajiste, para deshonrarme:

18 But when I raised my voice and cried out, he left his garment beside me and ran outside."

Y como yo alcé mi voz y grité, él dejó su ropa junto a mí, y huyó fuera.

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.

Y fue, que como su señor oyó las palabras que su mujer le habló, diciendo: Como esto, que digo, me ha hecho tu siervo, su furor se encendió,

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.

Y tomó su señor a José, y púsole en la casa de la cárcel, donde estaban los presos del rey, y estuvo allí en la casa de la cárcel.

21 But YHWH was with Joseph and showed him kindness and gave him favor in the sight of the keeper of the prison.

Mas Jehová fue con José, y llegó a él su misericordia, y dio su gracia en ojos del príncipe de la casa de la cárcel.

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.

Y el príncipe de la casa de la cárcel entregó en mano de José todos los presos, que estaban en la casa de la cárcel, y todo lo que hacían allí, él lo hacía.

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.

Ninguna cosa veía el príncipe de la cárcel en su mano, porque Jehová era con él: y lo que él hacía, Jehová lo prosperaba.
