پیدایش 39

1 و اما یوسف به دست تاجران اسماعیلی به مصر برده شد. فوطیفار که یکی از افسران فرعون و رئیس نگهبانان دربار بود، او را از ایشان خرید.

And Joseph he had been brought down Egypt towards and he bought him Potiphar [the] official of Pharaoh [the] commander of the bodyguards a man an Egyptian from [the] hand of the Ishmaelites who they had brought down him there towards.

2 خداوند با یوسف بود و او را در خانهٔ اربابش بسیار برکت داد، به طوری که آنچه یوسف می‌کرد موفقیت‌آمیز بود.

And he was Yahweh with Joseph and he was a man successful and he was in [the] house of master his the Egyptian.

3 فوطیفار متوجۀ این موضوع شده و دریافته بود که خداوند با یوسف است و در هر آنچه می‌کند، خداوند او را کامیاب می‌سازد.

And he saw master his that Yahweh [was] with him and all that he [was] doing Yahweh [was] making successful in hand his.

4 از این رو یوسف مورد لطف اربابش قرار گرفت. طولی نکشید که فوطیفار او را ناظر خانه و کلیه امور تجاری خود ساخت.

And he found Joseph favor in view his and he served him and he appointed him over household his and all [that] there [belonged] to him he gave in hand his.

5 خداوند فوطیفار را به خاطر یوسف برکت داد به‌طوری که تمام امور خانهٔ او به خوبی پیش می‌رفت و محصولاتش فراوان و گله‌هایش زیاد می‌شد.

And it was from then he appointed him in household his and over all that there [belonged] to him and he blessed Yahweh [the] household of the Egyptian on account of Joseph and it was [the] blessing of Yahweh on all that there [belonged] to him in the house and in the field.

6 پس فوطیفار مسئولیت ادارهٔ تمام اموال خود را به دست یوسف سپرد و دیگر او برای هیچ چیز فکر نمی‌کرد جز این که چه غذایی بخورد. یوسف جوانی خوش‌اندام و خوش‌قیافه بود.

And he left all that [belonged] to him in [the] hand of Joseph and not he knew with him anything that except the food which he [was] eating and he was Joseph handsome of form and handsome of appearance.

7 پس از مدتی، نظر همسر فوطیفار به یوسف جلب شد و از او خواست تا با وی همبستر شود.

And it was after the things these and she lifted up [the] wife of master his eyes her to Joseph and she said lie! with me.

8 اما یوسف نپذیرفت و گفت: «اربابم آنقدر به من اعتماد دارد که هر آنچه در این خانه است به من سپرده

And he refused - and he said to [the] wife of master his here! lord my not he knows with me what? [is] in the house and all that there [belongs] to him he has given in hand my.

9 و تمام اختیار این خانه را به من داده است. او چیزی را از من مضایقه نکرده جز تو را که همسر او هستی. پس چگونه مرتکب چنین عمل زشتی بشوم؟ این عمل، گناهی است بزرگ نسبت به خدا.»

Not [is] he great in the household this more than me and not he has withheld from me anything that except you in that you [are] wife his and how? will I do the evil great this and I will sin to God.

10 اما او دست بردار نبود و هر روز از یوسف می‌خواست که با وی همبستر شود. ولی یوسف به سخنان فریبندۀ او گوش نمی‌داد و تا آنجا که امکان داشت از وی دوری می‌کرد.

And it was when spoke she to Joseph day - day and not he listened to her to lie beside her to be with her.

11 روزی یوسف طبق معمول به کارهای منزل رسیدگی می‌کرد. آن روز کسی دیگر هم در خانه نبود.

And it was when the day this and he went the house towards to do work his and not anyone from [the] men of the house [was] there in the house.

12 پس آن زن چنگ به لباس او انداخته، گفت: «با من همبستر شو!» ولی یوسف از چنگ او گریخت و از منزل خارج شد، اما لباسش در دست وی باقی ماند.

And she seized him by clothing his saying lie! with me and he left clothing his in hand her and he fled and he went out the outside towards.

13 آن زن چون وضع را چنین دید،

And it was when saw she that he had left clothing his in hand her and he had fled the outside towards.

14 با صدای بلند فریاد زده، خدمتکاران را به کمک طلبید و به آنها گفت: «شوهرم این غلام عبرانی را به خانه آورده، حالا او ما را رسوا می‌سازد! او به اتاقم آمد تا به من تجاوز کند، ولی فریاد زدم.

And she called out to [the] men of household her and she said to them saying see he has brought to us a man a Hebrew to mock us he came to me to lie with me and I called out with a voice great.

15 وقتی شنید که فریاد می‌زنم، لباسش را جا گذاشت و فرار کرد.»

And it was when heard he that I raised voice my and I called out and he left clothing his beside me and he fled and he went out the outside towards.

16 پس آن زن لباس او را نزد خود نگاه داشت و وقتی شوهرش به منزل آمد

And she placed clothing his beside her until came master his to house his.

17 داستانی را که ساخته بود، برایش چنین تعریف کرد: «آن غلامِ عبرانی که به خانه آورده‌ای می‌خواست به من تجاوز کند،

And she spoke to him according to the words these saying he came to me the servant the Hebrew whom you brought to us to mock me.

18 ولی من با داد و فریاد، خود را از دستش نجات دادم. او گریخت، ولی لباسش را جا گذاشت.»

And it was when raised I voice my and I called out and he left clothing his beside me and he fled the outside towards.

19 فوطیفار چون سخنان زنش را شنید، بسیار خشمگین شد

And it was when heard master his [the] words of wife his which she spoke to him saying according to the things these he did to me servant your and it burned anger his.

20 و یوسف را به زندانی که سایر زندانیان پادشاه در آن در زنجیر بودند، انداخت.

And he took [the] master of Joseph him and he put him into [the] house of the prison [the] place where ([the] prisoners of *Q(K)*) the king [were] imprisoned and he was there in [the] house of the prison.

21 اما در آنجا هم خداوند با یوسف بود و او را برکت می‌داد و وی را مورد لطف رئیس زندان قرار داد.

And he was Yahweh with Joseph and he extended to him covenant loyalty and he gave favor his in [the] eyes of [the] commander of [the] house of the prison.

22 طولی نکشید که رئیس زندان، یوسف را مسئول ادارهٔ زندان نمود، به‌طوری که همهٔ زندانیان زیر نظر او بودند و او بر همۀ امور نظارت می‌کرد.

And he gave [the] commander of [the] house of the prison in [the] hand of Joseph all the prisoners who [were] in [the] house of the prison and all that [they were] doing there he he was doing.

23 رئیس زندان در مورد کارهایی که به یوسف سپرده بود نگرانی نداشت، زیرا خداوند با یوسف بود و او را در انجام کارهایش موفق می‌ساخت.

Not - [the] commander of [the] house of the prison [was] seeing all anything in hand his in that Yahweh [was] with him and [that] which he [was] doing Yahweh [was] making successful.
