Kinohi 39
1 U A laweia'ku la o Iosepa ilalo i Aigupita; kuaiia'ku la oia no Potipara, he luna na Parao, he luna o ka poe koa, a he kanaka no Aigupita, mai na lima aku o ka Isemaela, nana ia i lawe aku ilalo.
And Joseph hath been brought down to Egypt, and Potiphar, a eunuch of Pharaoh, head of the executioners, an Egyptian man, buyeth him out of the hands of the Ishmaelites who have brought him thither.
2 Me Iosepa no o Iehova, he kanaka ia i hoopomaikaiia, aia no ia ma ka hale o kona haku, he Aigupita.
And Jehovah is with Joseph, and he is a prosperous man, and he is in the house of his lord the Egyptian,
3 Ike ae la kona haku, aia no o Iehova me Iosepa, a na Iehova no i pono ai ka hana a pau a kona lima.
and his lord seeth that Jehovah is with him, and all that he is doing Jehovah is causing to prosper in his hand,
4 A loaa ia Iosepa ka lokomaikaiia imua ona, a hookauwa aku ia nana, a hoolilo aku la oia ia ia i luna no kona ohua, a no kona waiwai a pau, a waiho aku la ia i kana mea a pau i kona lima.
and Joseph findeth grace in his eyes and serveth him, and he appointeth him over his house, and all that he hath he hath given into his hand.
5 Eia hoi kekahi, mai ka wa mai o kona hoolilo ana ia ia i luna no kona ohua, a maluna o kona mea a pau, hoopomaikai mai ke Akua i ko ka hale o ua kanaka Aigupita nei no Iosepa; a na Iehova no ka pomaikai o na mea a pau ona, ma ka hale, a ma ke kula.
And it cometh to pass from the time that he hath appointed him over his house, and over all that he hath, that Jehovah blesseth the house of the Egyptian for Joseph's sake, and the blessing of Jehovah is on all that he hath, in the house, and in the field;
6 A waiho iho la oia i kona mea a pau i na lima o Iosepa, aole ia i ike aku i kekahi mea nona, o ka ai ana i ai ai wale no. Ua maikai ke kino o Iosepa, he maikai no hoi ka maka.
and he leaveth all that he hath in the hand of Joseph, and he hath not known anything that he hath, except the bread which he is eating. And Joseph is of a fair form, and of a fair appearance.
7 A mahope iho o keia mau mea, ike mai la na maka o ka wahine a kona haku ia Iosepa, i mai la ia, E moe kaua.
And it cometh to pass after these things, that his lord's wife lifteth up her eyes unto Joseph, and saith, 'Lie with me;'
8 Hoole aku la ia, i aku la i ka wahine a kona haku, Aia hoi, aole ike kuu haku i na mea ia'u ma keia hale, ua waiho mai nei ko'u haku i kana mea a pau i kuu lima:
and he refuseth, and saith unto his lord's wife, 'Lo, my lord hath not known what [is] with me in the house, and all that he hath he hath given into my hand;
9 Aohe mea nui e ae oloko o keia hale, owau wale no; aole keia i paa aku i kekahi mea ia'u, o oe wale no, no ka mea, o kana wahine no oe. Pehea la wau e hana'i i keia hewa nui, a hana ino aku i ke Akua?
none is greater in this house than I, and he hath not withheld from me anything, except thee, because thou [art] his wife; and how shall I do this great evil? — then have I sinned against God.'
10 Koi mai la oia ia Iosepa i keia la a i keia la, aole loa ia i hoolohe iki aku ia ia, e moe me ia, a e noho me ia.
And it cometh to pass at her speaking unto Joseph day [by] day, that he hath not hearkened unto her, to lie near her, to be with her;
11 Ia manawa iho, komo ae la o Iosepa iloko o ka hale, e hana i kana hana, aohe kanaka o ka hale iloko.
and it cometh to pass about this day, that he goeth into the house to do his work, and there is none of the men of the house there in the house,
12 Apo mai la kela ia ia ma ke kapa ona, i mai la, E moe kaua. Haalele iho la ia i kona kapa ma ka lima ona, holo aku la a hiki iwaho.
and she catcheth him by his garment, saying, 'Lie with me;' and he leaveth his garment in her hand, and fleeth, and goeth without.
13 A ike aku la ua wahine la, ua haalele ia i kona kapa ma kona lima, a ua holo aku la iwaho,
And it cometh to pass when she seeth that he hath left his garment in her hand, and fleeth without,
14 Kahea aku la ua wahine la i na kanaka o kona hale, olelo aku la ia lakou, i aku la, E nana oukou, ua lawe mai nei kela i ke kanaka no ka poe Hebera io kakou nei, e hoomaewaewa mai ia kakou. Hele mai la oia io'u nei e moe me au, a kahea aku la au me ka leo nui;
that she calleth for the men of her house, and speaketh to them, saying, 'See, he hath brought in to us a man, a Hebrew, to play with us; he hath come in unto me, to lie with me, and I call with a loud voice,
15 A lohe mai la kela i kuu hookiekie ana i kuu leo iluna, a i kuu hea ana aku, haalele iho nei oia i ke kapa ona ia'u, holo aku la a hiki iwaho.
and it cometh to pass, when he heareth that I have lifted up my voice and call, that he leaveth his garment near me, and fleeth, and goeth without.'
16 Malama iho la ua wahine la i kona kapa, a hoi mai la kona haku i ka hale.
And she placeth his garment near her, until the coming in of his lord unto his house.
17 Olelo aku la ua wahine la ia ia i keia mau olelo, i aku la, O ko kauwa Hebera, au i lawe mai ai io kakou nei, ua komo mai ia io'u nei e hoomaewaewa mai ia'u.
And she speaketh unto him according to these words, saying, 'The Hebrew servant whom thou hast brought unto us, hath come in unto me to play with me;
18 A hookiekie au i kuu leo iluna a kahea aku au, alaila, haalele iho la ia i ke kapa ona ia'u, a holo aku la iwaho.
and it cometh to pass, when I lift my voice and call, that he leaveth his garment near me, and fleeth without.'
19 A lohe ae la kona haku i ka olelo a kana wahine i olelo mai ni ia ia, i ka i ana mai, E like me keia mau olelo i hana mai ai kau kauwa ia'u; nui iho la ka huhu ona.
And it cometh to pass when his lord heareth the words of his wife, which she hath spoken unto him, saying, 'According to these things hath thy servant done to me,' that his anger burneth;
20 Lalau mai la ka haku o Iosepa ia in, hahao aku la ia ia iloko o ka halepaahao, i kahi i paa ai ka poe paa o ke alii, a paa no ia maluila ma ka halepaahao.
and Joseph's lord taketh him, and putteth him unto the round-house, a place where the king's prisoners [are] bound; and he is there in the round-house.
21 Me Iosepa no o Iehova, aloha nui mai la ia ia, a haawi mai la ia ia i ka pono imua o na maka o ka mea nana i malama ka halepaahao.
And Jehovah is with Joseph, and stretcheth out kindness unto him, and putteth his grace in the eyes of the chief of the round-house;
22 Waiho ae la ka mea nana i malama ka halepaahao i ka poe paa a pau oloko o ka halepaahao i ka lima o Iosepa, a o na mea a pau i hanaia malaila, nana no ia i hana.
and the chief of the round-house giveth into the hand of Joseph all the prisoners who [are] in the round-house, and of all that they are doing there, he hath been doer;
23 Aole hoi i nana aku ka luna o ka halepaahao i kekahi mea malalo iho o kona lima, no ka mea, aia no o Iehova me ia, a hoopomaikai mai la o Iehova i ka hana a pau ana i hana'i.
the chief of the round-house seeth not anything under his hand, because Jehovah [is] with him, and that which he is doing Jehovah is causing to prosper.
