< Genesis 39 >

1 And Joseph he had been brought down Egypt towards and he bought him Potiphar [the] official of Pharaoh [the] commander of the bodyguards a man an Egyptian from [the] hand of the Ishmaelites who they had brought down him there towards.
A kpọọrọ Josef gaa nʼala Ijipt. Pọtifa, bụ nwoke Ijipt, otu nʼime ndịisi na-ejere Fero ozi, na onyeisi ndị agha na-eche nche zụụrụ ya site nʼaka ndị Ishmel, bụ ndị duuru ya gaa nʼebe ahụ.
2 And he was Yahweh with Joseph and he was a man successful and he was in [the] house of master his the Egyptian.
Onyenwe anyị nọnyeere Josef, nke mere na ihe gaara ya nke ọma nʼụlọ nna ya ukwu onye Ijipt.
3 And he saw master his that Yahweh [was] with him and all that he [was] doing Yahweh [was] making successful in hand his.
Nna ya ukwu hụrụ na Onyenwe anyị nọnyeere Josef, hụkwa na Onyenwe anyị na-eme ka ihe niile o mere gaara ya nke ọma.
4 And he found Joseph favor in view his and he served him and he appointed him over household his and all [that] there [belonged] to him he gave in hand his.
Josef hụtara amara nʼihu ya, ghọọ onyeozi nke aka ya. Pọtifa mere ya onye na-elekọta ezinaụlọ ya. Nyefee ya ihe niile o nwere ka ọ bụrụ onye na-elekọta ha.
5 And it was from then he appointed him in household his and over all that there [belonged] to him and he blessed Yahweh [the] household of the Egyptian on account of Joseph and it was [the] blessing of Yahweh on all that there [belonged] to him in the house and in the field.
Site nʼoge a, o mere ka ọ bụrụ onye na-elekọta ezinaụlọ ya na ihe niile o nwere, Onyenwe anyị gọziri ezinaụlọ onye Ijipt ahụ nʼihi Josef. Ngọzị Onyenwe anyị dịkwasịrị nʼihe niile Pọtifa nwere, ma ihe o nwere nʼụlọ ma ndị o nwere nʼubi ya.
6 And he left all that [belonged] to him in [the] hand of Joseph and not he knew with him anything that except the food which he [was] eating and he was Joseph handsome of form and handsome of appearance.
Ya mere, ọ hapụrụ ihe niile o nwere nʼaka Josef. Nke a mere na ọ mazighị ihe ọzọ na-eme, ma ọ bụghị nri nke ọ na-eri. Josef nʼonwe ya mara mma ahụ dịkwa mma ile anya.
7 And it was after the things these and she lifted up [the] wife of master his eyes her to Joseph and she said lie! with me.
Mgbe oge nta gasịrị, nwunye Pọtifa lere Josef anya sị ya, “Bịa ka anyị abụọ dinaa.”
8 And he refused - and he said to [the] wife of master his here! lord my not he knows with me what? [is] in the house and all that there [belongs] to him he has given in hand my.
Ma Josef jụrụ. Ọ gwara nwunye nna ya ukwu sị, “Lee, nna m ukwu anaghị echegbu onwe ya banyere ihe ọbụla nʼụlọ a. O werela ihe niile o nwere nyefee m nʼaka ka m lekọta ha anya.
9 Not [is] he great in the household this more than me and not he has withheld from me anything that except you in that you [are] wife his and how? will I do the evil great this and I will sin to God.
O nweghị onye ọnọdụ ya dị elu karịa nke m nʼụlọ a. O gbochighị m ihe ọbụla ma ọ bụghị gị, nʼihi na ị bụ nwunye ya. Olee otu m ga-esi mee oke ihe ọjọọ dị otu a, mee mmehie megide Chineke.”
10 And it was when spoke she to Joseph day - day and not he listened to her to lie beside her to be with her.
Ọ bụ ezie na nwanyị a nọgidere na-enye Josef nsogbu site nʼụbọchị ruo ụbọchị ma Josef jụrụ iso ya dinaa, jụkwa ịnọnyere ya.
11 And it was when the day this and he went the house towards to do work his and not anyone from [the] men of the house [was] there in the house.
Otu ụbọchị, Josef batara nʼime ụlọ ịrụ ọrụ ya. O nweghị ndị ọzọ na-eje ozi nọ nʼime ụlọ nʼụbọchị ahụ.
12 And she seized him by clothing his saying lie! with me and he left clothing his in hand her and he fled and he went out the outside towards.
Nwunye Pọtifa jidere Josef nʼuwe mwụda ya, rịọọ ya sị ya, “Bịa ka anyị dinaa.” Ma Josef si nʼime ụlọ ahụ gbapụ, hapụ uwe mwụda ya nʼaka nwunye Pọtifa.
13 And it was when saw she that he had left clothing his in hand her and he had fled the outside towards.
Mgbe nwanyị a hụrụ na Josef agbapụla, hapụ uwe ya,
14 And she called out to [the] men of household her and she said to them saying see he has brought to us a man a Hebrew to mock us he came to me to lie with me and I called out with a voice great.
ọ kpọrọ ndị na-eje ozi nʼezinaụlọ ya sị ha, “Lee, onye Hibru a di m kpọbatara nʼụlọ a chọrọ iji anyị gwurie egwu. Ọ bịakwutere m nʼime ụlọ chọọ ka mụ na ya dinaa. E tiri m mkpu nʼolu ike.
15 And it was when heard he that I raised voice my and I called out and he left clothing his beside me and he fled and he went out the outside towards.
Mgbe ọ nụrụ ka m welitere olu m tie mkpu enyemaka m tiri, o sitere nʼime ụlọ a gbapụ, ma hapụrụ m uwe ya.”
16 And she placed clothing his beside her until came master his to house his.
Nwanyị a debere uwe ahụ nʼakụkụ ya ruo mgbe nna ya ukwu lọtara nʼụlọ.
17 And she spoke to him according to the words these saying he came to me the servant the Hebrew whom you brought to us to mock me.
Mgbe ahụ, ọ gwara di ya okwu ndị a sị, “Onye ohu Hibru a ị kpọbataara anyị bakwutere m iji m gwurie egwu.
18 And it was when raised I voice my and I called out and he left clothing his beside me and he fled the outside towards.
Ma mgbe m welitere olu tie mkpu enyemaka o sitere nʼụlọ gbapụ hapụrụ m uwe ya.”
19 And it was when heard master his [the] words of wife his which she spoke to him saying according to the things these he did to me servant your and it burned anger his.
Mgbe nna ya ukwu nụrụ ihe nwunye ya gwara ya sị, “Otu a ka ohu gị si meso m mmeso,” o were iwe dị ọkụ.
20 And he took [the] master of Joseph him and he put him into [the] house of the prison [the] place where ([the] prisoners of *Q(K)*) the king [were] imprisoned and he was there in [the] house of the prison.
Nna ukwu Josef weere ya tụnye nʼụlọ mkpọrọ, nʼebe a na-etinye ndị mkpọrọ eze Ijipt. Ma ebe ahụ Josef nọ nʼụlọ mkpọrọ,
21 And he was Yahweh with Joseph and he extended to him covenant loyalty and he gave favor his in [the] eyes of [the] commander of [the] house of the prison.
Onyenwe anyị nọnyeere ya. O meere ya ebere, mekwa ka o nweta ihuọma nʼebe onyeisi ndị nche ụlọ mkpọrọ ahụ nọ.
22 And he gave [the] commander of [the] house of the prison in [the] hand of Joseph all the prisoners who [were] in [the] house of the prison and all that [they were] doing there he he was doing.
Onyeisi ndị na-eche ụlọ mkpọrọ mere Josef onyeisi ndị mkpọrọ niile nọ nʼime ụlọ mkpọrọ ahụ. Josef ghọrọ onye a na-ajụ otu ihe si aga nʼime ụlọ mkpọrọ ahụ.
23 Not - [the] commander of [the] house of the prison [was] seeing all anything in hand his in that Yahweh [was] with him and [that] which he [was] doing Yahweh [was] making successful.
Onyeisi ndị nche ụlọ mkpọrọ ahụ enyeghịkwa onwe ya nsogbu maka ihe ọbụla. Nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị nọnyeere Josef, mee ka ihe ọbụla ọ na-eme gaa nke ọma.
