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.

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.

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.

The LORD was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man. He was 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.

His master saw that the LORD was with him, and that the LORD made all that he did prosper in his hand.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

7 Anazama nehifina ozafa'amofo nenaro'a Josefena kesane nehuno anage hu'ne, Enka nagrane emaso.

After these things, his master’s wife set her eyes on Joseph; and she said, “Lie with me.”

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 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.

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?

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?”

10 Ana a'mo'ma maka knafima Josefenku'ma masesu'e huge, erava'o huoma nehigeno'a, ke'a antahi omi'ne.

As she spoke to Joseph day by day, he didn’t listen to her, to lie by her, or to be with her.

11 Hagi mago zupa Josefe'a eri'za erinaku nompi marerigeno, ruga'a eri'za vahera ana nompina omani'nageno keteno,

About this time, he went into the house to do his work, and there were none of the men of the house 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.

She caught him by his garment, saying, “Lie with me!” He left his garment in her hand, and ran outside.

13 Ozafa'amofo nenaro'ma keama Josefe'ma nakreku'ama azampi atreno freno fegi'a atiramigeno'a,

When she saw that he had left his garment in her hand, and had run outside,

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 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.

15 Antahige'na ranke hu'na krafama nehuana, nakre ku'a avateti zafitreno freno fegi'a vu'ne.

When he heard that I lifted up my voice and cried, he left his garment by me, and ran outside.”

16 Anage huteno ana nakre ku'a ana a'mo'a tavaoma'are anteno mani'negeno neve'a nontega e'ne.

She laid up his garment by her, until his master came home.

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,

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,

18 rankema hu'na krafage hugeno'a, nakre ku'a atreno atiramino fegi'a freno vu'ne.

and as I lifted up my voice and cried, he left his garment by me, and ran outside.”

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.

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.

20 Ana higeno Josefena ozafa'amo'a avreno kini ne'mo'ma eri'za vahe'ama kinama hunezamantea kina nompi ome ante'ne.

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.

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 showed kindness to him, and gave him favour in the sight of the keeper of the prison.

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.

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.

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.

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.
