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.
And Joseph was brought down to Egypt; and Petephres the eunuch of Pharao, the captain of the guard, an Egyptian, bought him of the hands of the Ismaelites, who brought him down thither.
2 Si Yahweh ay kasama ni Jose at siya'y naging mayamang tao. Nanirahan siya sa bahay ng kanyang amo na taga-Ehipto.
And the Lord was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man; and he was in the house with his lord the Egyptian.
3 Nakita ng kanyang amo na kasama niya si Yahweh at lahat ng ginawa niya ay pinasagana ni Yahweh.
And his master knew that the Lord was with him, and the Lord prospers in his hands whatsoever he happens to do.
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.
And Joseph found grace in the presence of his lord, and was well-pleasing to him; and he set him over his house, and all that he had he gave into the hand of Joseph.
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.
And it came to pass after that he was set over his house, and over all that he had, that the Lord blessed the house of the Egyptian for Joseph's sake; and the blessing of the Lord was on all his possessions in the house, and in his 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.
And he committed all that he had into the hands of Joseph; and he knew not of anything that belonged to him, save the bread which he himself ate. And Joseph was handsome in form, and exceedingly beautiful in countenance.
7 Dumating ang panahon na pinagnanasaan si Jose ng asawa ng kanyang amo. Sinabi niya, “Sumiping ka sa akin”.
And it came to pass after these things, that his master's wife cast her eyes upon Joseph, and 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 would not; but said to his master's wife, If because of me my master knows nothing in his house, and has given into my hands all things that belong to him:
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?”
and in this house there is nothing above me, nor has anything been kept back from me, but thou, because thou art his wife—how then shall I do this wicked thing, and sin against God?
10 Kinausap niya si Jose sa bawat araw, ngunit tumanggi pa rin siya na sipingan siya o para makasama siya.
And when she talked with Joseph day by day, and he hearkened not to her to sleep with her, so as 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.
it came to pass on a certain day, that Joseph went into the house to do his business, and there was no one of the household within.
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.
And she caught hold of him by his clothes, and said, Lie with me; and having left his clothes in her hands, he fled, and went forth.
13 Dumating ang panahon, nang makita niya na naiwanan ni Jose ang kanyang damit sa kanyang kamay at lumayo palabas,
And it came to pass, when she saw that he had left his clothes in her hands, and fled, and gone forth,
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.
that she called those that were in the house, and spoke to them, saying, See, he has brought in to us a Hebrew servant to mock us—he came in to me, saying, 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.”
And when he heard that I lifted up my voice and cried, having left his clothes with me, he fled, and went forth out.
16 Tinabi niya ang damit hanggang sa makauwi ang kanyang amo sa bahay.
So she leaves the clothes by her, until the master came to his house.
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.
And she spoke to him according to these words, saying, The Hebrew servant, whom thou broughtest in to us, came in to me to mock me, and said to me, I will lie with thee.
18 Nang sumigaw ako, iniwan niya ang kanyang damit sa akin at lumayo palabas.”
And when he heard that I lifted up my voice and cried, having left his clothes with me, he fled and departed forth.
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.
And it came to pass, when his master heard all the words of his wife, that she spoke to him, saying, Thus did thy servant to me, that he was very angry.
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.
And his master took Joseph, and cast him into the prison, into the place where the king's prisoners are kept, there in the prison.
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.
And the Lord was with Joseph, and poured down mercy upon him; and he gave him favour in the sight of the chief 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.
And the chief keeper of the prison gave the prison into the hand of Joseph, and all the prisoners as many as were in the prison; and all things whatsoever they do there, he did them.
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.
Because of him the chief keeper of the prison knew nothing, for all things were in the hand of Joseph, because the Lord was with him; and whatever things he did, the Lord made them to prosper in his hands.
