उत्पत्ति 39
1 योसेफलाई मिश्रमा लगियो । अङ्गरक्षकहरूका एक मिश्री कप्तान फारोका अधिकारी पोतीफरले उनलाई इश्माएलीहरूबाट किने ।
And Joseph was brought down to Egypt; and Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh's, the captain of the guard, an Egyptian, bought him of the hand of the Ishmaelites, that had brought him down thither.
2 परमप्रभु योसेफसँग हुनुहुन्थ्यो र उनी एक समृद्ध मानिस भए । उनी आफ्ना मिश्री मालिकका घरमा बस्थे ।
And the LORD was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man; and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian.
3 परमप्रभु उनीसँग हुनुहुन्छ र उनले गर्ने सबै काममा उनलाई समृद्धि मिल्छ भन्ने कुरा उनको मालिकले देखे ।
And his master saw that the LORD was with him, and that the LORD made all that he did to prosper in his hand.
4 योसेफले तिनको कृपादृष्टि पाए । उनले पोतीफरको सेवा गरे । पोतीफरले योसेफलाई आफ्नो घर र तिनको स्वामित्वमा रहेका सबै कुरामाथि अधिकार दिए, र ती उनको जिम्मामा लगाए ।
And Joseph found favour in his sight, and he ministered unto him. And he appointed him overseer over his house, and all that he had he put into his hand.
5 तिनको घर र तिनको स्वामित्वमा रहेका सबै कुरामाथि योसेफलाई अधिकार दिएपछि योसेफको कारण परमप्रभुले त्यस मिश्रीको घरलाई आशिषित् गर्नुभयो । पोतीफरको घर र खेतमा भएका सबै कुरामाथि परमप्रभुको आशिष् रह्यो ।
And it came to pass from the time that he appointed him overseer in his house, and over all that he had, that the LORD blessed the Egyptian's house for Joseph's sake; and the blessing of the LORD was upon all that he had, in the house and in the field.
6 पोतीफरले आफ्ना सबै कुरा योसेफको जिम्मामा दिए । तिनले आफूले खाने भोजनबाहेक अरू कुनै कुराको विषयमा पनि चिन्ता लिनु पर्दैनथ्यो । योसेफ सुन्दर र आकर्षक थिए ।
And he left all that he had in Joseph's hand; and, having him, he knew not aught save the bread which he did eat. And Joseph was of beautiful form, and fair to look upon.
7 योसेफका मालिककी पत्नीले उनीप्रति चाहना राखिन् । तिनले भनिन्, “मसँग सुत ।”
And it came to pass after these things, that his master's wife cast her eyes upon Joseph; and she said: 'Lie with me.'
8 उनले इन्कार गरेर आफ्ना मालिककी पत्नीलाई यसो भने, “हेर्नुहोस्, मेरा मालिकले यस घरमा म के गर्छु भन्ने कुराप्रति कुनै चिन्ता गर्नुहुन्न, र उहाँका सबै कुरा उहाँले मेरै जिम्मामा दिनुभएको छ ।
But he refused, and said unto his master's wife: 'Behold, my master, having me, knoweth not what is in the house, and he hath put all that he hath into my hand;
9 मभन्दा ठुलो यस घरमा कोही छैन । उहाँले तपाईंबाहेक सबै कुरा मलाई दिनुभएको छ, किनभने तपाईं उहाँकी पत्नी हुनुहुन्छ । यसैकारण मैले कसरी यस्तो दुष्ट काम गरी परमेश्वरको विरुद्ध पाप गर्न सक्छु?”
he is not greater in this house than I; neither hath he kept back any thing from me but thee, because thou art his wife. How then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?'
10 तिनले योसेफसँग दिनहुँ कुरा गरिन्, तर उनी तिनीसँग सुत्न वा तिनको नजिक जान इन्कार गरे ।
And it came to pass, as she spoke to Joseph day by day, that he hearkened not unto her, to lie by her, or to be with her.
11 एक दिन उनी आफ्ना काम गर्न घरभित्र प्रवेश गरे । घरभित्र कोही पनि मानिस थिएन ।
And it came to pass on a certain day, when he went into the house to do his work, and there was none of the men of the house there within,
12 तिनले उनको लुगा समातिन् र भनिन्, “मसँग सुत ।” उनले आफ्ना लुगा तिनकै हातमा छोडेर बाहिर भागे ।
that she caught him by his garment, saying: 'Lie with me.' And he left his garment in her hand, and fled, and got him out.
13 जब योसेफ आफ्ना लुगा छोडेर बाहिर भागेका तिनले देखिन्,
And it came to pass, when she saw that he had left his garment in her hand, and was fled forth,
14 तिनले आफ्ना घरका मानिसहरूलाई बोलाएर भनिन्, “हेर, पोतीफरले हाम्रो बेइज्जत गर्न एउटा हिब्रूलाई ल्याउनुभएको छ । त्यो मकहाँ सुत्न भनेर आयो, अनि म चिच्याएँ ।
that she called unto the men of her house, and spoke unto them, saying: 'See, he hath brought in a Hebrew unto us to mock us; he came in unto me to lie with me, and I cried with a loud voice.
15 जब त्यसले म चिच्याएकी सुन्यो, त्यसले आफ्ना लुगा मकहाँ छोडेर बाहिर भाग्यो ।”
And it came to pass, when he heard that I lifted up my voice and cried, that he left his garment by me, and fled, and got him out.'
16 तिनको मालिक घर नआउन्जेलसम्म तिनले त्यो लुगा आफ्नै साथमा राखिन् ।
And she laid up his garment by her, until his master came home.
17 तिनले उनलाई यसरी वर्णन गरिन्, “तपाईंले हाम्रो निम्ति ल्याउनुभएको त्यो हिब्रू नोकर मेरो बेइज्जत गर्न मकहाँ आयो ।
And she spoke unto him according to these words, saying: 'The Hebrew servant, whom thou hast brought unto us, came in unto me to mock me.
18 जब म चिच्याएँ, त्यसले आफ्ना लुगा मकहाँ छोडेर बाहिर भाग्यो ।”
And it came to pass, as I lifted up my voice and cried, that he left his garment by me, and fled out.'
19 आफ्नो नोकरले आफ्नी पत्नीलाई गरेको व्यवहार आफ्नी पत्नीबाट सुनेपछि तिनी रिसले चुर भए ।
And it came to pass, when his master heard the words of his wife, which she spoke unto him, saying: 'After this manner did thy servant to me'; that his wrath was kindled.
20 योसेफका मालिकले उनलाई झ्यालखानामा राखे जहाँ राजाका कैदीहरू राखिन्थे । उनी त्यही झ्यालखानामा थिए ।
And 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 the prison.
21 तर परमप्रभु योसेफसँग हुनुहुन्थ्यो र आफ्ना करारप्रति उहाँ भरोसायोग्य रहनुभयो । झ्यालखानाका हाकिमको नजरमा उहाँले उनलाई कृपादृष्टि दिनुभयो ।
But the LORD was with Joseph, and showed kindness unto him, and gave him favour in the sight of the keeper of the prison.
22 झ्यालखानाका हाकिमले झ्यालखानाका सबै कैदीहरू योसेफको जिम्मामा दिए । तिनीहरूले गर्ने काममाथि योसेफकै निगरानी हुन्थ्यो ।
And the keeper of the prison committed to Joseph's hand all the prisoners that were in the prison; and whatsoever they did there, he was the doer of it.
23 उनको जिम्मामा भएका कुनै कुरामा त्यस झ्यालखानाका हाकिम चिन्तित हुँदैन थिए, किनभने परमप्रभु उनीसँग हुनुहुन्थ्यो । उनले जे गर्थे, परमप्रभुले समृद्धि प्रदान गर्नुहुन्थ्यो ।
The keeper of the prison looked not to any thing that was under his hand, because the LORD was with him; and that which he did, the LORD made it to prosper.
