1 Yuusufna waxaa la keenay Masar. Kuwii reer Ismaaciil oo isaga halkaas geeyeyna waxaa gacantoodii ka iibsaday nin Masri ahaa oo la odhan jiray Footiifar, oo Fircoon sirkaal u ahaa, oo madaxii waardiyayaasha ahaa.
Meanwhile, the descendants of Ishmael took Joseph down to Egypt. There Potiphar bought Joseph from them. Potiphar was an Egyptian who was one of the king’s officials and the captain of the king’s (palace guards/guards who protected the king).
2 Rabbiguna waa la jiray Yuusuf, wuxuuna ahaa nin liibaansan, wuxuuna joogi jiray gurigii sayidkiisii Masriga ahaa.
Because Yahweh helped Joseph, he was able to do his work very well, and lived in the house of his Egyptian master.
3 Sayidkiisiina wuu arkay in Rabbigu liibaaniyey wixii uu sameeyey oo dhan.
His master saw that Yahweh was helping Joseph and enabling him to be successful in everything that he did.
4 Isaguna raalli buu Yuusuf ka ahaa, Yuusufna waa u adeegi jiray, oo wuxuu isagii ka dhigay kan gurigiisa u sarreeya, wixii uu haystay oo dhanna gacantiisuu wada geliyey.
Joseph’s master was pleased with him, so he appointed him to be his personal servant. Then he appointed him to be the one who would take care of everything in his household and all of his possessions.
5 Oo waxay noqotay in wakhtigii uu ka dhigay kan u sarreeya gurigiisa iyo wixii uu haystay oo dhan, uu Rabbigu gurigii kii Masriga ahaa u barakeeyey Yuusuf aawadiis, wixii uu guriga iyo beertaba ku haystay oo dhanna barakada Rabbigaa saarnayd.
From the time Potiphar appointed Joseph to take care of everything in his household and all that he owned, Yahweh blessed the people who lived in Potiphar’s house because of Joseph. He also caused Potiphar’s crops to grow well.
6 Wixii uu lahaa oo dhanna Yuusuf gacantiisuu kaga tegey. Waxbana kama ogayn wixii uu hayay, wixii uu cuni jiray mooyaane. Yuusufna aad buu u quruxsanaa, wuuna suurad wanaagsanaa.
Potiphar allowed Joseph to take care of everything that he owned. Potiphar needed to decide only about the food he ate. He was not concerned about anything else in his house. Joseph was well-built/muscular and handsome.
7 Oo waxay noqotay waxyaalahaas ka dib in naagtii sayidkiisu ay fiirisay Yuusuf, oo ay ku tidhi, Kaalay ila jiifso.
Because of that, after a while, his master’s wife started to look fondly at Joseph. So one day she said to him, “Have sex [EUP] with me!”
8 Laakiinse wuu diiday, oo wuxuu ku yidhi naagtii sayidkiisa, Bal eeg, sayidkaygu waxba kama oga waxa aan guriga ku hayo; wixiisii oo dhanna gacantayduu wada geliyey;
But he refused, saying to his master’s wife, “Listen! My master is not concerned about anything in this house. He has appointed me to take care of everything that he owns.
9 oo weliba gurigan mid aniga iga weynu ma joogo, oo isaguna waxba igalama hadhin adiga mooyaane, maxaa yeelay, adigu waxaad tahay naagtiisii, de haddaba sidee baan u samayn karaa xumaantan weyn, oo aan Ilaah ugu dembaabaa?
No one in this household has more authority than I do. The only thing that he has not allowed me to have is you, because you are his wife! So (how could I do this wicked thing [that you are asking me to do]?/I certainly could not do this wicked thing!) [RHQ] I would be sinning against God if I did that!”
10 Oo waxay noqotay, in kastoo ay maalinba maalinta ka dambaysa la hadlaysay Yuusuf, inuu maqli waayay inuu la jiifsado ama uu la joogo iyadii.
She kept on asking Joseph day after day to have sex [EUP] with her, but he refused. He would not even go near her.
11 Oo waxay noqotay haddaa oo kale, inuu gurigii galay inuu shuqulkiisii qabsado, nimankii gurigana midna gudaha ma joogin.
One day Joseph went into the house to do his work, and none of the other household servants were in the house.
12 Kolkaasay qabsatay dharkiisii, oo waxay ku tidhi, Ila jiifso. Isaguse dharkiisii gacanteeduu kaga tegey, wuuna cararay oo baxay.
Potiphar’s wife grabbed his cloak and said, “Have sex [EUP] with me!” Joseph ran out of the house, but his cloak was still in her hand!
13 Markay aragtay inuu dharkiisii gacanteeda kaga tegey, oo uu dibadda u cararay,
When she saw that he had run outside leaving his cloak in her hand,
14 ayay u yeedhay raggii gurigeeda oo ay la hadashay, oo waxay ku tidhi, Bal eega, ninkaygu wuxuu inoo keenay nin Cibraani ah inuu inagu majaajiloodo. Wuxuu iigu soo galay inuu ila jiifsado aawadeed, markaasaan cod dheer ku qayliyey,
she called the household servants. She said to them, “Look! This Hebrew man that my husband brought to us is (insulting/trying to do something disgraceful to) us! He came into my room and tried to (rape me/make me have sex [EUP] with him), but I screamed loudly.
15 oo markuu maqlay inaan codkaygii sare u qaaday oo aan qayliyey ayuu dharkiisii iiga tegey, wuuna cararay oo baxay.
As soon as he heard me scream loudly, he left his loincloth with me and ran outside!”
16 Dharkiisiina way is-ag dhigtay ilaa uu sayidkiisii guriga yimid.
She kept the loincloth beside her until her husband, Joseph’s master, came home.
17 Kolkaasay hadalkan kula hadashay isagii, oo waxay ku tidhi, Addoonkii Cibraaniga ahaa, oo aad inoo keentay, ayaa iigu soo galay inuu igu majaajiloodo,
Then she told him this story: “That Hebrew slave whom you brought here came into my room and tried to rape me!
18 oo markaan codkaygii sare u qaaday oo aan qayliyey ayuu dharkiisii iiga tegey, oo uu dibadda u cararay.
As soon as I screamed loudly, he ran outside, leaving me holding his loincloth!”
19 Markii sayidkiisii maqlay hadalkii naagtiisa, oo ay kula hadashay isaga, iyadoo leh, Addoonkaagii sidan buu igu sameeyey, ayuu cadhooday.
When Joseph’s master heard this story that his wife told him, saying “This is how your slave treated me,” he was very angry.
20 Markaasaa Yuusuf sayidkiisii qabtay isagii, oo wuxuu geliyey xabsigii ahaa meeshii maxaabiista boqorku ku xidhnaayeen; oo isna halkaasuu ku jiray xabsigii gudihiisa.
Joseph’s master took Joseph and put him in prison, the place where all the king’s prisoners were put, and Joseph stayed there.
21 Laakiinse Yuusuf waxaa la jiray Rabbiga, wuuna u roonaaday, kii xabsiga hayayna raalli buu uga dhigay.
But Yahweh was kind to Joseph and helped him, and caused the (prison warden/man who was in charge of the prison) to be pleased with him.
22 Kii xabsiga hayayna wuxuu Yuusuf gacanta u geliyey maxaabiistii xabsiga ku jirtay oo dhan; oo wax kastoo ay halkaas ku sameeyeenna, wuxuu ahaa kii sameeyey.
So the prison warden put Joseph in charge of all those who were in the prison, and in charge of all the work that was done there.
23 Kii xabsiga hayayna ma uu eegi jirin waxa isaga gacantiisa ku jira, maxaa yeelay, Rabbigaa la jiray isaga, wixii uu sameeyeyna Rabbigu waa liibaaniyey.
The warden was not concerned with anything that Joseph was taking care of, because Yahweh helped Joseph to do well everything that he did.
