Genesis 39
1 Joseph was brought down to Egypt. Potiphar, an official of Pharaoh who was captain of the guard and an Egyptian, bought him from the Ishmaelites, who had brought him down there.
A Josifa odvedoše u Misir; i Petefrije dvoranin Faraonov, zapovjednik stražarski, èovjek Misirac, kupi ga od Ismailjaca, koji ga odvedoše onamo.
2 Yahweh was with Joseph and he became a prosperous man. He lived in the house of his Egyptian master.
I Gospod bješe s Josifom, te bi sreæan, i življaše u kuæi gospodara svojega Misirca.
3 His master saw that Yahweh was with him and that Yahweh prospered everything that he did.
I gospodar njegov vidje da je Gospod s njim i da sve što radi Gospod vodi u napredak u ruci njegovoj.
4 Joseph found favor in his sight. He served Potiphar. Potiphar made Joseph manager over his house, and everything that he possessed, he put under his care.
I Josif steèe milost u njega, i dvoraše ga; a najposlije postavi ga nad cijelijem domom svojim, i što god imaše njemu dade u ruke.
5 It came about from the time that he made him manager over his house and over everything he possessed, that Yahweh blessed the Egyptian's house because of Joseph. The blessing of Yahweh was on everything that Potiphar had in the house and in the field.
A kad ga postavi nad domom svojim i nad svijem što imaše, od tada Gospod blagoslovi dom toga Misirca radi Josifa; i blagoslov Gospodnji bješe na svemu što imaše u kuæi i u polju.
6 Potiphar put everything that he had under Joseph's care. He did not have to think about anything except the food that he ate. Now Joseph was handsome and attractive.
I ostavi u Josifovijem rukama sve što imaše, i ne razbiraše ni za što osim jela koje jeðaše. A Josif bijaše lijepa stasa i lijepa lica.
7 It came about after this that his master's wife lusted for Joseph. She said, “Sleep with me.”
I dogodi se poslije, te se žena gospodara njegova zagleda u Josifa, i reèe: lezi sa mnom.
8 But he refused and said to his master's wife, “Look, my master does not pay attention to what I do in the house, and he has put everything that he owns under my care.
A on ne htje, nego reèe ženi gospodara svojega: eto gospodar moj ne razbira ni za što što je u kuæi, nego što god ima dade meni u ruke.
9 No one is greater in this house than I am. He has not kept back anything from me but you, because you are his wife. How then can I do this great wickedness and sin against God?”
Ni sam nije veæi od mene u ovoj kuæi, i ništa ne krije od mene osim tebe, jer si mu žena; pa kako bih uèinio tako grdno zlo i Bogu zgriješio?
10 She spoke to Joseph day after day, but he refused to sleep with her or to be with her.
I ona govoraše take rijeèi Josifu svaki dan, ali je ne posluša da legne s njom ni da se bavi kod nje.
11 It came about one day that he went into the house to do his work. None of the men of the house were there in the house.
A jedan dan kad doðe Josif u kuæu da radi svoj posao, a ne bješe nikoga od domašnjih u kuæi,
12 She caught him by his clothes and said, “Sleep with me.” He left his clothing in her hand, fled, and went outside.
Ona ga uhvati za haljinu govoreæi: lezi sa mnom. Ali on ostaviv joj u rukama haljinu svoju pobježe i otide.
13 It came about, when she saw that he had left his clothing in her hand and had fled outside,
A kad ona vidje gdje joj ostavi u rukama haljinu svoju i pobježe,
14 that she called to the men of her house and told them, “See, Potiphar has brought in a Hebrew to mock us. He came in to me to sleep with me, and I screamed.
Viknu èeljad svoju, i reèe im govoreæi: gledajte, doveo nam je èovjeka Jevrejina da nas sramoti; doðe k meni da legne sa mnom, a ja povikah iza glasa;
15 It came about when he heard me scream, that he left his clothing with me, fled, and went outside.”
A on kad èu gdje vièem, ostavi haljinu svoju kod mene i pobježe i otide.
16 She set his clothing next to her until his master came home.
I ona ostavi haljinu njegovu kod sebe dok mu gospodar doðe kuæi.
17 She told him this explanation, “The Hebrew servant whom you brought to us, came in to mock me.
A tada mu reèe ovako govoreæi: sluga Jevrejin, kojega si nam doveo, doðe k meni da me osramoti;
18 It came about that when I screamed, he left his clothing with me and fled outside.”
A ja povikah iza glasa, te on ostaviv haljinu svoju kod mene pobježe.
19 It came about that, when his master heard the explanation his wife told him, “This is what your servant did to me,” he became very angry.
A kad gospodar njegov èu rijeèi žene svoje gdje mu reèe: to mi je uèinio sluga tvoj, razgnjevi se vrlo.
20 Joseph's master took him and put him in prison, the place where the king's prisoners were confined. He was there in the prison.
I gospodar Josifov uhvati ga, i baci ga u tamnicu, gdje ležahu sužnji carski; i bi ondje u tamnici.
21 But Yahweh was with Joseph and showed covenant faithfulness to him. He gave him favor in the sight of the prison warden.
Ali Gospod bješe s Josifom i raširi milost svoju nad njim i uèini te omilje tamnièaru.
22 The prison warden gave into Joseph's hand all the prisoners who were in the prison. Whatever they did there, Joseph was in charge of it.
I povjeri tamnièar Josifu sve sužnje u tamnici, i što je god trebalo ondje èiniti on ureðivaše.
23 The prison warden did not worry about anything that was in his hand, because Yahweh was with him. Whatever he did, Yahweh prospered.
I tamnièar ne nadgledaše ništa što bješe u Josifovoj ruci, jer Gospod bješe s njim; i što god èinjaše, Gospod voðaše u napredak.
