Génesis 39
1 Ahora José fue llevado a Egipto; y Potifar el egipcio, un capitán de alto rango en la casa de Faraón, lo obtuvo por un precio de los ismaelitas que lo habían llevado allí.
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 Y el Señor estaba con José, que llegó a ser un hombre próspero; y él estaba viviendo en la casa de su amo, el egipcio.
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 su amo vio que el Señor estaba con él, haciendo que todo lo que él hacía iba bien.
And his lord saw, that, Yahweh, was with him—and that whatsoever, he was doing, Yahweh, was causing to prosper in his hand.
4 y teniendo una gran opinión de José como su siervo, lo hizo el supervisor de su casa y le dio el control de 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 desde el momento en que lo hizo mayordomo y le dio el control de todas sus propiedades, la bendición del Señor fue con el egipcio, por causa de José; la bendición del Señor estaba en todo lo que tenía, en la casa y 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 dio a José el control de toda su propiedad, sin guardar cuenta de nada, sino solo de la comida que se le presentó. Ahora José era muy hermoso en forma y rostro.
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 después de un tiempo, la esposa de su amo, mirando a José con deseo, le dijo: Sé mi amante.
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 Pero él no quiso, y le dijo: Tú ves que mi señor no tiene que preocuparse de lo que yo hago en su casa, y pone todas sus propiedades bajo mi control;
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 para que nadie tenga más autoridad en esta casa que yo; no me ha ocultado nada más que a ti, porque eres su esposa; ¿Cómo puedo hacer este gran error, y pecar 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 día tras día ella siguió pidiéndole a José que viniera a ella y fuera su amante, pero él no la escucharía.
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 Un día entró en la casa para hacer su trabajo; y ninguno de los hombres de la casa estaba adentro.
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 tomando su manto, dijo: Ven a mi cama; pero dejando su manto, se fue corriendo.
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 cuando ella vio que él había escapado, dejándola su manto en sus manos,
And it came to pass when she saw that he had left his garment in her hand, —and fled forth outside,
14 y mandó llamar a los hombres de su casa, y les dijo: Mira, él ha permitido que un hebreo venga aquí y se burle de nosotros; él vino a mi cama y yo di un fuerte grito;
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 oyéndome gritar, salió sin su manto.
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 guardó su manto junto a ella, hasta que regresó su señor.
So she laid by his garment beside her, —until his lord should come into his house,
17 Entonces ella le contó la misma historia, diciendo: El siervo hebreo que has tomado en nuestra casa entró 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 cuando di un fuerte grito, salió corriendo sin su manto.
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 oyendo el relato de su mujer acerca de lo que había hecho su siervo, se enojó mucho.
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 Entonces el señor de José lo tomó y lo puso en la cárcel, en el lugar donde los prisioneros del rey estaban encadenados, y él estaba allí en la prisión.
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 Pero el Señor estaba con José, y fue bueno con él, y le dio favor en los ojos del jefe 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 guardián de la prisión puso a todos los presos bajo el control de José, y él era responsable de todo lo que allí se 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 Y el guardián de la prisión no tenía que preocuparse de nada de lo que estaba bajo el cuidado de José, porque el Señor estaba con él; y el Señor hizo que todo lo que hiciera saliera bien.
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.
