Genesis 39
1 Joseph was brought down to Egypt. Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh’s, the captain of the guard, an Egyptian, bought him from the hand of the Ishmaelites that had brought him down there.
| اما یوسف را به مصر بردند، و مردی مصری، فوطیفار نام که خواجه و سردارافواج خاصه فرعون بود، وی را از دست اسماعیلیانی که او را بدانجا برده بودند، خرید. | ۱ |
2 The LORD was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man. He was in the house of his master the Egyptian.
| وخداوند با یوسف می‌بود، و او مردی کامیاب شد، و در خانه آقای مصری خود ماند. | ۲ |
3 His master saw that the LORD was with him, and that the LORD made all that he did prosper in his hand.
| و آقایش دیدکه خداوند با وی می‌باشد، و هر‌آنچه او می‌کند، خداوند در دستش راست می‌آورد. | ۳ |
4 Joseph found favour in his sight. He ministered to him, and Potiphar made him overseer over his house, and all that he had he put into his hand.
| پس یوسف در نظر وی التفات یافت، و او را خدمت می‌کرد، واو را به خانه خود برگماشت و تمام مایملک خویش را بدست وی سپرد. | ۴ |
5 From the time that he made him overseer in his house, and over all that he had, the LORD blessed the Egyptian’s house for Joseph’s sake. The LORD’s blessing was on all that he had, in the house and in the field.
| و واقع شد بعد ازآنکه او را بر خانه و تمام مایملک خود گماشته بود، که خداوند خانه آن مصری را بسبب یوسف برکت داد، و برکت خداوند بر همه اموالش، چه در خانه و چه در صحرا بود. | ۵ |
6 He left all that he had in Joseph’s hand. He didn’t concern himself with anything, except for the food which he ate. Joseph was well-built and handsome.
| و آنچه داشت به‌دست یوسف واگذاشت، و از آنچه با وی بود، خبر نداشت جز نانی که می‌خورد. و یوسف خوش اندام و نیک منظر بود. | ۶ |
7 After these things, his master’s wife set her eyes on Joseph; and she said, “Lie with me.”
| و بعد از این امور واقع شد که زن آقایش بریوسف نظر انداخته، گفت: «با من همخواب شو.» | ۷ |
8 But he refused, and said to his master’s wife, “Behold, my master doesn’t know what is with me in the house, and he has put all that he has into my hand.
| اما او ابا نموده، به زن آقای خود گفت: «اینک آقایم از آنچه نزد من در خانه است، خبر ندارد، وآنچه دارد، به‌دست من سپرده است. | ۸ |
9 No one is greater in this house than I am, and 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?”
| بزرگتری ازمن در این خانه نیست و چیزی از من دریغ نداشته، جز تو، چون زوجه او می‌باشی؛ پس چگونه مرتکب این شرارت بزرگ بشوم و به خدا خطاورزم؟» | ۹ |
10 As she spoke to Joseph day by day, he didn’t listen to her, to lie by her, or to be with her.
| و اگرچه هر روزه به یوسف سخن می‌گفت، به وی گوش نمی گرفت که با او بخوابد یانزد وی بماند. | ۱۰ |
11 About this time, he went into the house to do his work, and there were none of the men of the house inside.
| و روزی واقع شد که به خانه درآمد، تا به شغل خود پردازد و از اهل خانه کسی آنجا درخانه نبود. | ۱۱ |
12 She caught him by his garment, saying, “Lie with me!” He left his garment in her hand, and ran outside.
| پس جامه او را گرفته، گفت: «با من بخواب.» اما او جامه خود را به‌دستش رها کرده، گریخت و بیرون رفت. | ۱۲ |
13 When she saw that he had left his garment in her hand, and had run outside,
| و چون او دید که رخت خود را به‌دست وی ترک کرد و از خانه گریخت، | ۱۳ |
14 she called to the men of her house, and spoke to them, saying, “Behold, he has brought a Hebrew in to us to mock us. He came in to me to lie with me, and I cried with a loud voice.
| مردان خانه راصدا زد، و بدیشان بیان کرده، گفت: «بنگرید، مردعبرانی را نزد ما آورد تا ما را مسخره کند، و نزدمن آمد تا با من بخوابد، و به آواز بلند فریاد کردم، | ۱۴ |
15 When he heard that I lifted up my voice and cried, he left his garment by me, and ran outside.”
| و چون شنید که به آواز بلند فریاد برآوردم، جامه خود را نزد من واگذارده، فرار کرد و بیرون رفت.» | ۱۵ |
16 She laid up his garment by her, until his master came home.
| پس جامه او را نزد خود نگاه داشت، تاآقایش به خانه آمد. | ۱۶ |
17 She spoke to him according to these words, saying, “The Hebrew servant, whom you have brought to us, came in to me to mock me,
| و به وی بدین مضمون ذکر کرده، گفت: «آن غلام عبرانی که برای ماآورده‌ای، نزد من آمد تا مرا مسخره کند، | ۱۷ |
18 and as I lifted up my voice and cried, he left his garment by me, and ran outside.”
| وچون به آواز بلند فریاد برآوردم، جامه خود راپیش من رها کرده، بیرون گریخت.» | ۱۸ |
19 When his master heard the words of his wife, which she spoke to him, saying, “This is what your servant did to me,” his wrath was kindled.
| پس چون آقایش سخن زن خود را شنید که به وی بیان کرده، گفت: «غلامت به من چنین کرده است، » خشم او افروخته شد. | ۱۹ |
20 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 custody.
| و آقای یوسف، او را گرفته، در زندان خانه‌ای که اسیران پادشاه بسته بودند، انداخت و آنجا در زندان ماند. | ۲۰ |
21 But the LORD was with Joseph, and showed kindness to him, and gave him favour in the sight of the keeper of the prison.
| اماخداوند با یوسف می‌بود و بر وی احسان می‌فرمود، و او را در نظر داروغه زندان حرمت داد. | ۲۱ |
22 The keeper of the prison committed to Joseph’s hand all the prisoners who were in the prison. Whatever they did there, he was responsible for it.
| و داروغه زندان همه زندانیان را که درزندان بودند، به‌دست یوسف سپرد. و آنچه درآنجا می‌کردند، او کننده آن بود. | ۲۲ |
23 The keeper of the prison didn’t look after anything that was under his hand, because the LORD was with him; and that which he did, the LORD made it prosper.
| و داروغه زندان بدانچه در دست وی بود، نگاه نمی کرد، زیرا خداوند با وی می‌بود و آنچه را که او می‌کرد، خداوند راست می‌آورد. | ۲۳ |
