Genesis 39
1 And Joseph was brought down to Egypt: and Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh, captain of the guard, an Egyptian, bought him of the hands of the Ishmaelites, who had brought him down thither.
Joseph foi trazido para o Egito. Potiphar, um oficial do faraó, o capitão da guarda, um egípcio, comprou-o da mão dos ismaelitas que o haviam levado para lá.
2 And the LORD was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man: and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian.
Yahweh estava com José, e ele era um homem próspero. Ele estava na casa de seu mestre, o egípcio.
3 And his master saw that the LORD [was] with him, and that the LORD made all that he did to prosper in his hand.
Seu mestre viu que Javé estava com ele, e que Javé fez tudo o que ele fez prosperar em sua mão.
4 And Joseph found grace in his sight, and he served him: and he made him overseer over his house, and all [that] he had he put into his hand.
Joseph encontrou um favor em sua visão. Ele o serviu, e Potiphar o fez superintendente de sua casa, e tudo o que ele tinha em suas mãos.
5 And it came to pass from the time [that] he had made him overseer in his house, and over all that he had, that the LORD blessed the Egyptian's house for Joseph's sake: and the blessing of the LORD was on all that he had in the house, and in the field.
Desde que o fez superintendente em sua casa, e sobre tudo o que ele tinha, Javé abençoou a casa do egípcio por causa de José. A bênção de Javé estava sobre tudo o que ele tinha, na casa e no campo.
6 And he left all that he had in Joseph's hand; and he knew not aught he had, save the bread which he ate; and Joseph was [a] goodly [person], and well favored.
Ele deixou tudo o que tinha nas mãos de José. Ele não se preocupou com nada, exceto com a comida que ele comia. Joseph era bem construído e bonito.
7 And it came to pass after these things, that his master's wife cast her eyes upon Joseph: and she said, Lie with me.
Depois destas coisas, a esposa de seu mestre pôs os olhos em Joseph; e ela disse: “Deite-se comigo”.
8 But he refused, and said to his master's wife, Behold, my master knoweth not what [is] with me in the house, and he hath committed all that he hath to my hand:
Mas ele recusou, e disse à esposa de seu mestre: “Eis que meu mestre não sabe o que está comigo na casa, e ele colocou tudo o que tem na minha mão.
9 [There is] none greater in his house than I; neither hath he kept back any thing from me but thee, because thou [art] his wife: how then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?
Ninguém é maior nesta casa do que eu, e ele não escondeu nada de mim a não ser você, porque você é sua esposa. Como então posso fazer esta grande maldade, e pecar contra Deus”?
10 And it came to pass, as she spoke to Joseph day by day, that he hearkened not to her, to lie by her, [or] to be with her.
Enquanto ela falava com Joseph dia após dia, ele não a ouvia, não mentia por ela, nem estava com ela.
11 And it came to pass, about this time, that [Joseph] went into the house to do his business; and [there was] none of the men of the house there within.
Mais ou menos nessa época, ele entrou na casa para fazer seu trabalho, e não havia nenhum dos homens da casa dentro.
12 And she caught him by his garment, saying, Lie with me: and he left his garment in her hand, and fled, and went out.
Ela o pegou pela roupa dele, dizendo: “Deite-se comigo”. Ele deixou sua roupa na mão dela, e correu para fora.
13 And it came to pass, when she saw that he had left his garment in her hand, and had fled forth,
Quando viu que ele tinha deixado sua roupa na mão dela, e tinha corrido para fora,
14 That she called to the men of her house, and spoke to them, saying, See, he hath brought in a Hebrew to us to mock us: he came in to me to lie with me, and I cried with a loud voice:
ela chamou os homens de sua casa, e falou com eles, dizendo: “Eis que ele trouxe um hebreu até nós para zombar de nós”. Ele veio até mim para deitar-se comigo, e eu chorei com uma voz alta.
15 And it came to pass, when he heard that I raised my voice and cried, that he left his garment with me, and fled, and went out.
Quando ele ouviu que eu levantei minha voz e chorei, ele deixou sua roupa por mim, e correu para fora”.
16 And she laid up his garment by her until his lord came home.
Ela colocou sua veste por ela, até que seu mestre voltou para casa.
17 And she spoke to him according to these words, saying, The Hebrew servant, which thou hast brought to us, came in to me to mock me.
Ela falou com ele de acordo com estas palavras, dizendo: “O servo hebreu, que você nos trouxe, veio até mim para zombar de mim,
18 And it came to pass, as I raised my voice and cried, that he left his garment with me, and fled.
e enquanto eu levantava minha voz e chorava, ele deixou sua veste por mim, e correu para fora”.
19 And it came to pass, when his master heard the words of his wife, which she spoke to him, saying, After this manner did thy servant to me; that his wrath was kindled.
Quando seu mestre ouviu as palavras de sua esposa, que ela lhe falou, dizendo: “Foi isso que seu servo me fez”, sua ira se acendeu.
20 And Joseph's master took him, and put him into the prison, a place where the king's prisoners [were] bound: and he was there in the prison.
O mestre de José o levou e o colocou na prisão, o lugar onde os prisioneiros do rei estavam presos, e ele estava lá sob custódia.
21 But the LORD was with Joseph, and showed him mercy, and gave him favor in the sight of the keeper of the prison.
Mas Yahweh estava com Joseph, e mostrou gentileza para com ele, e deu-lhe um favor aos olhos do guardião da prisão.
22 And the keeper of the prison committed to Joseph's hand all the prisoners that [were] in the prison; and whatever they did there, was done by him.
O guardião da prisão entregou à mão de José todos os prisioneiros que estavam na prisão. O que quer que eles lá fizessem, ele era responsável por isso.
23 The keeper of the prison looked not to any thing [that was] under his hand; because the LORD was with him: and [that] which he did the LORD made [it] to prosper.
O guardião da prisão não cuidou de nada que estivesse sob sua mão, porque Yahweh estava com ele; e o que ele fez, Yahweh fez prosperar.
