Jenesis 39
1 Josefena avre'za Isipi mopare vazageno, Fero avate vugota huno kegava nehia ne' Potifa'a Ismael vahe'mo'za avre'za vu'naza vahepinti miza huno avrente'ne.
Now Joseph was taken down to Egypt; and Potiphar the Egyptian, a captain of high position in Pharaoh's house, got him for a price from the Ishmaelites who had taken him there.
2 Ra Anumzamo'a Josefe'ene mani'negeno, maka eri'zama'amo'a knare'zanke hu'ne. Josefe'a ozafa'amofo nompi Isipi mani'ne.
And the Lord was with Joseph, and he did well; and he was living in the house of his master the Egyptian.
3 Ozafa'amo'ma keana Ra Anumzamo'a Josefe'ene mani'negeno, eri'za kama'amo'a agri azantera knare zanke hu'ne.
And his master saw that the Lord was with him, making everything he did go well.
4 Ana higeno, ozafa'amo'a Josefena antahimino, avate eri'za ne' azeri oti'ne. Ana nehuno noma'ane maka'zama'a Josefe azampi antegeno kegava krinte'ne.
And having a high opinion of Joseph as his servant, he made him the overseer of his house and gave him control over all he had.
5 Isipi ne'mo'ma ana'ma hianknareti agafa huno Josefe'ma noma'afi mani'negu huno Potifana mika nompi zane, fegi'a hozafi zanena Ra Anumzamo'a asomu hunte'ne.
And from the time when he made him overseer and gave him control of all his property, the blessing of the Lord was with the Egyptian, because of Joseph; the blessing of the Lord was on all he had, in the house and in the field.
6 Maka'zana Potifa'a Josefe azampi antegeno kegava krigeno, maka zankura agesa ontahi'neanki, kave'ma nesia zankuke hu'ne. Hagi Josefena agi'avugosamo'ene, agia azamo'enene, avufgamo'enena knare'za huno soe zanke hu'ne.
And he gave Joseph control of all his property, keeping no account of anything, but only the food which was put before him. Now Joseph was very beautiful in form and face.
7 Anazama nehifina ozafa'amofo nenaro'a Josefena kesane nehuno anage hu'ne, Enka nagrane emaso.
And after a time, his master's wife, looking on Joseph with desire, said to him, Be my lover.
8 Hianagi agra ana kegura i'o nehuno, ozafa'amofo nenarona anage huno asami'ne, Antahio, nagrama ama nompima mani'nogeno'a ozafanimo'a maka'zankura agesa nontahie. Maka'zama ante'nea zana nagri nazampi kegava kri'nuegu ante'ne.
But he would not, and said to her, You see that my master keeps no account of what I do in his house, and has put all his property in my control;
9 Mago agateresa nera ama nompina omani'ne, nagrake mani'noankino, mikazana nagri nazampi anteno kegava huo hu'neanagi, kagri kaziga antenka mase huno hu izo huonantene. Na'ankure kagra nenaroga mani'nane. Inankna hu'na nagra tusi'a kefo'zana erifore hu'na kumira Anumzamofo avufina hugahue?
So that no one has more authority in this house than I have; he has kept nothing back from me but you, because you are his wife; how then may I do this great wrong, sinning against God?
10 Ana a'mo'ma maka knafima Josefenku'ma masesu'e huge, erava'o huoma nehigeno'a, ke'a antahi omi'ne.
And day after day she went on requesting Joseph to come to her and be her lover, but he would not give ear to her.
11 Hagi mago zupa Josefe'a eri'za erinaku nompi marerigeno, ruga'a eri'za vahera ana nompina omani'nageno keteno,
Now one day he went into the house to do his work; and not one of the men of the house was inside.
12 ozafa'amofo nenaro'a nakre ku'are avazu nehuno anage hu'ne, Nagrane emaso, higeno ana nakre ku'a azampi zafi netreno, freno megi'a atiramino vu'ne.
And pulling at his coat, she said, Come to my bed; but slipping out of his coat, he went running away.
13 Ozafa'amofo nenaro'ma keama Josefe'ma nakreku'ama azampi atreno freno fegi'a atiramigeno'a,
And when she saw that he had got away, letting her keep his coat,
14 ana a'mo'a noma'afi eri'za e'neriza vahe ke hige'za eme atru hazageno anage hu'ne, Keho, Hibru ne'ma avrenoma eme ante'nea ne'mo, nagri zokago renanteku ege'na krafa hu'noe.
She sent for the men of her house and said to them, See, he has let a Hebrew come here and make sport of us; he came to my bed, and I gave a loud cry;
15 Antahige'na ranke hu'na krafama nehuana, nakre ku'a avateti zafitreno freno fegi'a vu'ne.
And hearing it he went running out without his coat.
16 Anage huteno ana nakre ku'a ana a'mo'a tavaoma'are anteno mani'negeno neve'a nontega e'ne.
And she kept his coat by her, till his master came back.
17 Anante Potifa'a egeno, nenaro'a amanage huno asmi'ne, Miza e'ori kazokazo Hibru eri'za ne' avrenka eme tami'nana ne'mo, nagrite eno zokago renantenaku nehige'na,
Then she gave him the same story, saying, The Hebrew servant whom you have taken into our house came in to make sport of me;
18 rankema hu'na krafage hugeno'a, nakre ku'a atreno atiramino fegi'a freno vu'ne.
And when I gave a loud cry he went running out without his coat.
19 Potifa nenaro'ma nevema asamino, miza e'ori kazokzo eri'za ne'kamo Josefe anahura nagrira hu'ne, hiankemo'a Potifa rimpamo'a teve re'ne.
And hearing his wife's account of what his servant had done, he became very angry.
20 Ana higeno Josefena ozafa'amo'a avreno kini ne'mo'ma eri'za vahe'ama kinama hunezamantea kina nompi ome ante'ne.
And Joseph's master took him and put him in prison, in the place where the king's prisoners were kept in chains, and he was there in the prison-house.
21 Ana hianagi Ra Anumzamo'a Josefe'ene mani'neno avesinteno azeri so'e nehigeno, kina nonte vugota hu'nea ne'mo'ma keana knare'za hu'ne.
But the Lord was with Joseph, and was good to him, and made the keeper of the prison his friend.
22 Kina nonte'ma vugote'nea ne'mo'a Josefena maka'a kina vahe'mokizmire kegava krinogu kva azeri oti'ne. Hagi inankna zama anampima haniazana agri azampi ante'ne.
And the keeper of the prison put all the prisoners under Joseph's control, and he was responsible for whatever was done there.
23 Kina nonte'ma vugote'nea ne'mo'ma Josefe azampima ante'nea zankura agesa ontahine. Na'ankure Ra Anumzamo'a agrane mani'negu huno, maka'zama Josefe'ma hiazana, aza nehigeno knare'zanke hu'ne.
And the keeper of the prison gave no attention to anything which was under his care, because the Lord was with him; and the Lord made everything he did go well.
