Kejadian 39
1 Adapun Yusuf telah dibawa ke Mesir; dan Potifar, seorang Mesir, pegawai istana Firaun, kepala pengawal raja, membeli dia dari tangan orang Ismael yang telah membawa dia ke situ.
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.
2 Tetapi TUHAN menyertai Yusuf, sehingga ia menjadi seorang yang selalu berhasil dalam pekerjaannya; maka tinggallah ia di rumah tuannya, orang Mesir itu.
Yahweh was with Joseph and he became a prosperous man. He lived in the house of his Egyptian master.
3 Setelah dilihat oleh tuannya, bahwa Yusuf disertai TUHAN dan bahwa TUHAN membuat berhasil segala sesuatu yang dikerjakannya,
His master saw that Yahweh was with him and that Yahweh prospered everything that he did.
4 maka Yusuf mendapat kasih tuannya, dan ia boleh melayani dia; kepada Yusuf diberikannya kuasa atas rumahnya dan segala miliknya diserahkannya pada kekuasaan Yusuf.
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.
5 Sejak ia memberikan kuasa dalam rumahnya dan atas segala miliknya kepada Yusuf, TUHAN memberkati rumah orang Mesir itu karena Yusuf, sehingga berkat TUHAN ada atas segala miliknya, baik yang di rumah maupun yang di ladang.
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.
6 Segala miliknya diserahkannya pada kekuasaan Yusuf, dan dengan bantuan Yusuf ia tidak usah lagi mengatur apa-apapun selain dari makanannya sendiri. Adapun Yusuf itu manis sikapnya dan elok parasnya.
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.
7 Selang beberapa waktu isteri tuannya memandang Yusuf dengan berahi, lalu katanya: "Marilah tidur dengan aku."
It came about after this that his master's wife lusted for Joseph. She said, “Sleep with me.”
8 Tetapi Yusuf menolak dan berkata kepada isteri tuannya itu: "Dengan bantuanku tuanku itu tidak lagi mengatur apa yang ada di rumah ini dan ia telah menyerahkan segala miliknya pada kekuasaanku,
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.
9 bahkan di rumah ini ia tidak lebih besar kuasanya dari padaku, dan tiada yang tidak diserahkannya kepadaku selain dari pada engkau, sebab engkau isterinya. Bagaimanakah mungkin aku melakukan kejahatan yang besar ini dan berbuat dosa terhadap Allah?"
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?”
10 Walaupun dari hari ke hari perempuan itu membujuk Yusuf, Yusuf tidak mendengarkan bujukannya itu untuk tidur di sisinya dan bersetubuh dengan dia.
She spoke to Joseph day after day, but he refused to sleep with her or to be with her.
11 Pada suatu hari masuklah Yusuf ke dalam rumah untuk melakukan pekerjaannya, sedang dari seisi rumah itu seorangpun tidak ada di rumah.
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.
12 Lalu perempuan itu memegang baju Yusuf sambil berkata: "Marilah tidur dengan aku." Tetapi Yusuf meninggalkan bajunya di tangan perempuan itu dan lari ke luar.
She caught him by his clothes and said, “Sleep with me.” He left his clothing in her hand, fled, and went outside.
13 Ketika dilihat perempuan itu, bahwa Yusuf meninggalkan bajunya dalam tangannya dan telah lari ke luar,
It came about, when she saw that he had left his clothing in her hand and had fled outside,
14 dipanggilnyalah seisi rumah itu, lalu katanya kepada mereka: "Lihat, dibawanya ke mari seorang Ibrani, supaya orang ini dapat mempermainkan kita. Orang ini mendekati aku untuk tidur dengan aku, tetapi aku berteriak-teriak dengan suara keras.
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.
15 Dan ketika didengarnya bahwa aku berteriak sekeras-kerasnya, ditinggalkannyalah bajunya padaku, lalu ia lari ke luar."
It came about when he heard me scream, that he left his clothing with me, fled, and went outside.”
16 Juga ditaruhnya baju Yusuf itu di sisinya, sampai tuan rumah pulang.
She set his clothing next to her until his master came home.
17 Perkataan itu jugalah yang diceritakan perempuan itu kepada Potifar, katanya: "Hamba orang Ibrani yang kaubawa ke mari itu datang kepadaku untuk mempermainkan aku.
She told him this explanation, “The Hebrew servant whom you brought to us, came in to mock me.
18 Tetapi ketika aku berteriak sekeras-kerasnya, ditinggalkannya bajunya padaku, lalu ia lari ke luar."
It came about that when I screamed, he left his clothing with me and fled outside.”
19 Baru saja didengar oleh tuannya perkataan yang diceritakan isterinya kepadanya: begini begitulah aku diperlakukan oleh hambamu itu, maka bangkitlah amarahnya.
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.
20 Lalu Yusuf ditangkap oleh tuannya dan dimasukkan ke dalam penjara, tempat tahanan-tahanan raja dikurung. Demikianlah Yusuf dipenjarakan di sana.
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.
21 Tetapi TUHAN menyertai Yusuf dan melimpahkan kasih setia-Nya kepadanya, dan membuat Yusuf kesayangan bagi kepala penjara itu.
But Yahweh was with Joseph and showed covenant faithfulness to him. He gave him favor in the sight of the prison warden.
22 Sebab itu kepala penjara mempercayakan semua tahanan dalam penjara itu kepada Yusuf, dan segala pekerjaan yang harus dilakukan di situ, dialah yang mengurusnya.
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.
23 Dan kepala penjara tidak mencampuri segala yang dipercayakannya kepada Yusuf, karena TUHAN menyertai dia dan apa yang dikerjakannya dibuat TUHAN berhasil.
The prison warden did not worry about anything that was in his hand, because Yahweh was with him. Whatever he did, Yahweh prospered.
