< 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.
At ibinaba si Jose sa Egipto; at binili siya ni Potiphar, puno ni Faraon, na kapitan ng bantay, na lalaking taga Egipto, sa kamay ng mga Ismaelita na nagdala sa kaniya roon.
2 Yahweh was with Joseph and he became a prosperous man. He lived in the house of his Egyptian master.
At ang Panginoon ay suma kay Jose, at naging lalaking mapalad; at siya'y nasa bahay ng kaniyang panginoong taga Egipto.
3 His master saw that Yahweh was with him and that Yahweh prospered everything that he did.
At nakita ng kaniyang panginoon, na ang Panginoon ay sumasakaniya, at ang lahat ng kaniyang ginagawa ay pinagpapala ng Panginoon sa kaniyang kamay.
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.
At nakasumpong si Jose ng biyaya sa kaniyang paningin, at pinaglingkuran niya siya: at sa kaniya'y ipinamahala niya ang bahay, at ang lahat niyang tinatangkilik ay isinakaniyang kamay.
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.
At nangyari, na mula sa panahon na siya'y pamahalain sa kaniyang bahay, at sa lahat ng kaniyang tinatangkilik, ay pinagpala ng Panginoon ang bahay ng taga Egiptong yaon dahil kay Jose; at ang pagpapala ng Panginoon ay sumalahat ng kaniyang tinatangkilik, sa bahay at sa parang.
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.
At kaniyang ipinamahala ang lahat niyang tinatangkilik sa kamay ni Jose; at hindi siya nakikialam ng anomang kaniya, liban sa tinapay na kaniyang kinakain. At si Jose ay may magandang pagmumukha at kahalihalina.
7 It came about after this that his master's wife lusted for Joseph. She said, “Sleep with me.”
At nangyari, pagkatapos ng mga bagay na ito, na tinitigan si Jose ng asawa ng kaniyang panginoon at sinabi, Sipingan mo ako.
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.
Datapuwa't siya'y tumanggi at sinabi niya sa asawa ng kaniyang panginoon, Narito, ang aking panginoon ay hindi nakikialam sa akin tungkol sa nasa bahay, at lahat ng kaniyang tinatangkilik ay ipinamahala sa aking kamay;
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?”
Walang sinomang dakila kay sa akin sa bahay na ito; walang ipinagkait sa aking anomang bagay, kung di ikaw lamang, sapagka't ikaw ay kaniyang asawa: paano ngang aking magagawa itong malaking kasamaan, at kasalanan laban sa Dios?
10 She spoke to Joseph day after day, but he refused to sleep with her or to be with her.
At nangyari, na nakikiusap man siya kay Jose araw-araw, ay hindi nakikinig sa kaniya na siya'y sipingan, o pakisamahan.
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.
At nangyari nang panahong ito, na siya'y pumasok sa bahay upang gawin niya ang kaniyang gawain at wala sinoman sa mga tao sa bahay doon sa loob.
12 She caught him by his clothes and said, “Sleep with me.” He left his clothing in her hand, fled, and went outside.
At siya'y pinigilan niya sa kaniyang suot, na sinasabi, Sipingan mo ako: at iniwan niya ang kaniyang suot sa kamay niya at tumakas, at lumabas.
13 It came about, when she saw that he had left his clothing in her hand and had fled outside,
At nangyari, na pagkakita niyang iniwan ang kaniyang suot sa kamay niya, at tumakas sa labas,
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.
Na siya'y tumawag ng mga tao sa kaniyang bahay, at sinalita sa kanila, na sinasabi, Tingnan ninyo, na dinalhan niya tayo ng isang Hebreo, upang tayo'y tuyain; pinasok niya ako upang ako'y sipingan, at ako'y naghihiyaw ng malakas:
15 It came about when he heard me scream, that he left his clothing with me, fled, and went outside.”
At nangyari nang marinig niyang ako'y nagtaas ng tinig at naghihiyaw, na iniwan ang kaniyang suot sa aking siping, at tumakas, at lumabas.
16 She set his clothing next to her until his master came home.
At kaniyang iningatan ang suot niya sa kaniyang siping, hanggang sa umuwi ang kaniyang panginoon sa kaniyang bahay.
17 She told him this explanation, “The Hebrew servant whom you brought to us, came in to mock me.
At sinalita niya sa kaniya ng ayon sa mga salitang ito, na sinasabi, Pinasok ako ng aliping Hebreo na iyong dinala sa atin, upang tuyain ako:
18 It came about that when I screamed, he left his clothing with me and fled outside.”
At nangyari, na sapagka't nagtaas ako ng aking tinig at ako'y naghihiyaw, ay kaniyang iniwan ang suot niya sa aking siping, at tumakas sa labas.
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.
At nangyari, na pagkarinig ng kaniyang panginoon ng mga salita na sinalita sa kaniya ng kaniyang asawa, na sinasabi, Ganitong paraan ang ginawa sa akin ng iyong alipin; ay nagalab ang kaniyang galit.
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.
At dinala ng kaniyang panginoon si Jose, at inilagay sa bilangguan, sa dakong pinagkukulungan ng mga bilanggo ng hari: at siya'y natira roon sa bilangguan.
21 But Yahweh was with Joseph and showed covenant faithfulness to him. He gave him favor in the sight of the prison warden.
Datapuwa't ang Panginoon ay suma kay Jose, at iginawad sa kaniya ang awa, at pinagkalooban ng biyaya sa paningin ng katiwala sa bilangguan.
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.
At ipinamahala ng katiwala sa bilangguan sa mga kamay ni Jose ang lahat na mga bilanggo na nasa bilangguan; at ang lahat ng ginagawa roon ay siya ang gumagawa.
23 The prison warden did not worry about anything that was in his hand, because Yahweh was with him. Whatever he did, Yahweh prospered.
Hindi tinitingnan ng katiwala ng bilangguan ang anomang bagay na nasa kaniyang kamay, sapagka't ang Panginoo'y suma kay Jose; at ang kaniyang ginagawa ay pinagpapala ng Panginoon.
