Génesis 39

1 Y descendido José a Egipto, compróle Potifar, eunuco de Faraón, capitán de los de la guardia, varón Egipciano, de mano de los Ismaelitas, que le habían llevado allá.

Now, Joseph, was taken down to Egypt, —and Potiphar, courtier of Pharaoh, chief of the royal executioners, an Egyptian bought him, at the hand of the Ishmaelites, who had brought him down thither.

2 Mas Jehová fue con José, y fue varón prosperado: y estaba en la casa de su señor el Egipciano.

And it came to pass that Yahweh, was with Joseph, so that he became a prosperous man, —and was in the house of his lord the Egyptian.

3 Y vio su señor que Jehová era con él, y que todo lo que él hacía, Jehová lo prosperaba en su mano.

And his lord saw, that, Yahweh, was with him—and that whatsoever, he was doing, Yahweh, was causing to prosper in his hand.

4 Así halló José gracia en sus ojos, y servíale: y él le hizo mayordomo de su casa, y le entregó en poder todo lo que tenía.

So Joseph found favour in his eyes and waited upon him, —and he made him overseer over his house, and all that he had, gave he into his hand.

5 Y aconteció, que desde entonces que le dio el cargo de su casa, y de todo lo que tenía, Jehová bendijo la casa del Egipciano a causa de José, y fue la bendición de Jehová sobre todo lo que tenía así en casa como en el campo.

And it came to pass from the time that he made him overseer in his house and over all that he had, that Yahweh blessed the house of the Egyptian, for Joseph’s sake, —yea it came to pass, that the blessing of Yahweh, was with all that he had, in the house and in the field;

6 Y dejó todo lo que tenía en la mano de José, ni con él sabía nada más que del pan que comía: y José era de hermoso semblante, y bello de vista.

so that he left all that he had in the hand of Joseph, and took note with him of nothing, save only the bread which, he himself, was eating. And so it was that Joseph was comely in form and comely in countenance.

7 Y aconteció después de esto, que la mujer de su señor alzó sus ojos sobre José, y dijo: Duerme conmigo.

And it came to pass after these things, that his lord’s wife lifted up her eyes unto Joseph, —and she said—Come! lie with me.

8 Y él no quiso; y dijo a la mujer de su señor: He aquí que mi señor no sabe conmigo lo que hay en casa, que todo lo que tiene ha puesto en mi mano.

And he refused and said unto his lord’s wife, Lo! my lord, taketh no note with me as to what is in the house, —but, all that pertaineth to him, hath he delivered into my hand:

9 No hay otro mayor que yo en esta casa, y ninguna cosa me ha defendido sino a ti, por cuanto tú eres su mujer: ¿cómo pues haría yo este grande mal, que pecaría contra Dios?

There is no one greater in this house than I, neither hath he withheld from me anything, save only thyself in that thou, art his wife, —how, then could I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?

10 Y fue, que hablando ella a José cada día, y no la escuchando él para acostarse junto a ella, para estar con ella:

And it came to pass, that although she Spake unto Joseph day after day, yet hearkened he not unto her to lie beside her to be with her.

11 Aconteció que él vino un día como los otros a casa para hacer su oficio, y no había nadie de los de casa allí en casa.

And it came to pass, when, on a certain day, he went into the house to attend to his business, —and there was no man of the household, there in the house,

12 Y ella le tomó por su ropa, diciendo: Duerme conmigo. Entonces él dejóle su ropa en las manos, y huyó, y salióse fuera.

that she caught him by his garment, saying—Come! lie with me. Then left he his garment in her hand, and fled and gat forth outside,

13 Y fue, que como ella vio que le había dejado su ropa en sus manos, y había huido fuera.

And it came to pass when she saw that he had left his garment in her hand, —and fled forth outside,

14 Llamó a los de casa, y hablóles, diciendo: Mirád; hános traído un hombre Hebreo, para que hiciese burla de nosotros. Vino a mí para dormir conmigo, y yo di grandes voces.

that she cried out to the men of her house and spake to them, saying, Look ye! he hath brought in to us a Hebrew man to insult us, —He came in unto me, to lie with me, so I cried out with a loud voice.

15 Y viendo él, que yo alzaba la voz, y gritaba, dejó junto a mí su ropa, y huyó, y salióse fuera.

And it came to pass, when he heard that I lifted high my voice, and cried out, then left he his garment beside me, and fled and gat forth outside.

16 Y ella puso su ropa cerca de sí, hasta que vino su señor a su casa:

So she laid by his garment beside her, —until his lord should come into his house,

17 Y ella le habló semejantes palabras, diciendo: Vino a mí el siervo Hebreo, que nos trajiste, para deshonrarme:

Then spake she unto him, according to these words, saying, —He hath been in unto me—the Hebrew servant whom thou didst bring in to us—to insult me.

18 Y como yo alcé mi voz y grité, él dejó su ropa junto a mí, y huyó fuera.

And it came to pass when I lifted high my voice and cried out, then left he his garment beside me, and fled outside.

19 Y fue, que como su señor oyó las palabras que su mujer le habló, diciendo: Como esto, que digo, me ha hecho tu siervo, su furor se encendió,

And it came to pass, when his lord heard the words of his wife which she spake unto him saying, According to these words, hath thy servant done to me, Then was kindled his anger.

20 Y tomó su señor a José, y púsole en la casa de la cárcel, donde estaban los presos del rey, y estuvo allí en la casa de la cárcel.

So Joseph’s lord took him and delivered him up to the prison: the place where, the prisoners of the king, were imprisoned, —so he was there, in the prison.

21 Mas Jehová fue con José, y llegó a él su misericordia, y dio su gracia en ojos del príncipe de la casa de la cárcel.

And it came to pass that, Yahweh, was with Joseph, and extended unto him lovingkindness, —and gave him his favour in the eyes of the chief of the prison.

22 Y el príncipe de la casa de la cárcel entregó en mano de José todos los presos, que estaban en la casa de la cárcel, y todo lo que hacían allí, él lo hacía.

So the chief of the prison delivered up, into Joseph’s hand all the prisoners who were in the prison, —and of all that was doing there, he, was the doer.

23 Ninguna cosa veía el príncipe de la cárcel en su mano, porque Jehová era con él: y lo que él hacía, Jehová lo prosperaba.

After nothing, was the chief of the prison looking, of whatever was in his hand, —in that Yahweh, was with him, and whatsoever, he was doing, Yahweh, was causing to prosper.
