Genesis 39
1 Dinala si Jose pababa sa Ehipto. Binili siya ni Potipar, na isang opisyal at kapitan ng mga bantay ni Paraon at isang taga-Ehipto, mula sa mga Ismaelita, na nagdala sa kanya doon.
Joseph was brought down to Egypt. Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh’s, the captain of the guard, an Egyptian, bought him from the hand of the Ishmaelites that had brought him down there.
2 Si Yahweh ay kasama ni Jose at siya'y naging mayamang tao. Nanirahan siya sa bahay ng kanyang amo na taga-Ehipto.
The LORD was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man. He was in the house of his master the Egyptian.
3 Nakita ng kanyang amo na kasama niya si Yahweh at lahat ng ginawa niya ay pinasagana ni Yahweh.
His master saw that the LORD was with him, and that the LORD made all that he did prosper in his hand.
4 Nakitaan si Jose ng pabor sa kanyang paningin. Pinaglingkuran niya si Potipar. Ginawa ni Potipar na tagapangasiwa si Jose ng kanyang bahay, at lahat ng nasa kanya, nilagay niya lahat sa ilalim ng kanyang pangangalaga.
Joseph found favor in his sight. He ministered to him, and Potiphar made him overseer over his house, and all that he had he put into his hand.
5 Dumating ang panahon na ginawa siyang tagapangasiwa ng kanyang bahay at sa lahat ng kanyang pagmamay-ari, kaya pinagpala ni Yahweh ang buong bahay ng taga-Ehipto dahil kay Jose. Ang pagpapala ni Yahweh ay nasa lahat ng bagay na pagmamay-ari ni Potipar sa kanyang bahay at sa kanyang bukid.
From the time that he made him overseer in his house, and over all that he had, the LORD blessed the Egyptian’s house for Joseph’s sake. The LORD’s blessing was on all that he had, in the house and in the field.
6 Inilagay ni Potipar ang lahat ng nasa kanya sa ilalim ng pangangalaga ni Jose. Hindi na niya kailangan mag-isip tungkol sa anumang bagay maliban sa pagkain na kinakain niya. Ngayon si Jose ay matipuno at kaakit-akit.
He left all that he had in Joseph’s hand. He did not concern himself with anything, except for the food which he ate. Joseph was well-built and handsome.
7 Dumating ang panahon na pinagnanasaan si Jose ng asawa ng kanyang amo. Sinabi niya, “Sumiping ka sa akin”.
After these things, his master’s wife set her eyes on Joseph; and she said, “Lie with me.”
8 Ngunit tinanggihan niya ito at sabay sabi sa asawa ng kanyang amo, “Tingnan mo, ang amo ko ay di-nagbigay pansin sa kung ano ang pinaggagawa ko dito sa bahay, at nilagay niya lahat ng kanyang pag-aari sa ilalim ng aking pangangalaga.
But he refused, and said to his master’s wife, “Behold, my master does not know what is with me in the house, and he has put all that he has into my hand.
9 Walang mas nakakataas sa pamamahay na ito maliban sa akin. Wala siyang anumang pinagkait sa akin maliban sa iyo, dahil ikaw ang asawa niya. Paano ko kaya magagawa itong malaking kasamaan at magkakasala laban sa Diyos?”
No one is greater in this house than I am, and he has not kept back anything from me but you, because you are his wife. How then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?”
10 Kinausap niya si Jose sa bawat araw, ngunit tumanggi pa rin siya na sipingan siya o para makasama siya.
As she spoke to Joseph day by day, he did not listen to her, to lie by her, or to be with her.
11 Dumating ang isang araw na pumunta siya sa bahay para gawin ang kanyang gawain. Walang sinuman sa mga lalaki sa bahay ang naroon sa bahay.
About this time, he went into the house to do his work, and there were none of the men of the house inside.
12 Siya ay hinablot niya sa pamamagitan ng kanyang damit at sinabi, “Sipingan mo ako.” Naiwanan niya ang kanyang damit sa kanyang kamay, lumayo, at nagpunta sa labas.
She caught him by his garment, saying, “Lie with me!” He left his garment in her hand, and ran outside.
13 Dumating ang panahon, nang makita niya na naiwanan ni Jose ang kanyang damit sa kanyang kamay at lumayo palabas,
When she saw that he had left his garment in her hand, and had run outside,
14 tinawag niya ang mga lalaki sa kanyang bahay at sinabi sa kanila, “Tingnan ninyo, nagdala si Potipar ng isang Hebreo para hamakin tayo. Pinuntahan niya ako para sipingan ako, at ako ay sumigaw.
she called to the men of her house, and spoke to them, saying, “Behold, he has brought a Hebrew in to us to mock us. He came in to me to lie with me, and I cried with a loud voice.
15 Dumating ang panahon nang marinig niya akong sumigaw, naiwan niya ang kanyang damit sa akin, lumayo, at pumunta sa labas.”
When he heard that I lifted up my voice and cried, he left his garment by me, and ran outside.”
16 Tinabi niya ang damit hanggang sa makauwi ang kanyang amo sa bahay.
She laid up his garment by her, until his master came home.
17 Sinabi niya sa kanya ang paliwanag na ito, “Ang lingkod na Hebreo na dinala mo sa amin ay nagpunta sa akin para hamakin ako.
She spoke to him according to these words, saying, “The Hebrew servant, whom you have brought to us, came in to me to mock me,
18 Nang sumigaw ako, iniwan niya ang kanyang damit sa akin at lumayo palabas.”
and as I lifted up my voice and cried, he left his garment by me, and ran outside.”
19 Dumating ang panahon, nang marinig ng kanyang amo ang pagpapaliwanag ng kanyang asawa sa kanya, “Ito ang ginawa ng iyong lingkod sa akin,” siya ay naging labis na galit.
When his master heard the words of his wife, which she spoke to him, saying, “This is what your servant did to me,” his wrath was kindled.
20 Kinuha si Jose ng kanyang amo at siya ay nilagay sa bilangguan, ang lugar na kung saan nakakulong ang mga bilanggo ng hari. Siya ay naroon sa bilangguan.
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 custody.
21 Ngunit si Yahweh ay kasama ni Jose at siya ay nagpakita katapatan sa tipan sa kanya. Siya ay binigyan niya ng kagandahang-loob sa paningin ng bantay ng kulungan.
But the LORD was with Joseph, and showed kindness to him, and gave him favor in the sight of the keeper of the prison.
22 Binigay ng bantay ng kulangan sa kamay ni Jose ang pamamahala sa lahat ng bilanggo sa kulungan. Kahit anong gawin nila roon, si Jose ang namamahala.
The keeper of the prison committed to Joseph’s hand all the prisoners who were in the prison. Whatever they did there, he was responsible for it.
23 Wala ng inaalalang anuman ang bantay ng kulungan na nasa kamay ni Jose, dahil si Yahweh ay kasama niya. Kahit anong gawin niya, pinasagana siya ni Yahweh.
The keeper of the prison did not look after anything that was under his hand, because the LORD was with him; and that which he did, the LORD made it prosper.
