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 has been brought down to Egypt, and Potiphar, a eunuch of Pharaoh, head of the executioners, an Egyptian man, buys him out of the hands of the Ishmaelites who have brought him there.
2 Si Yahweh ay kasama ni Jose at siya'y naging mayamang tao. Nanirahan siya sa bahay ng kanyang amo na taga-Ehipto.
And YHWH is with Joseph, and he is a prosperous man, and he is in the house of 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 lord sees that YHWH is with him, and all that he is doing YHWH is causing to 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.
and Joseph finds grace in his eyes and serves him, and he appoints him over his house, and all that he has he has given 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.
And it comes to pass from the time that he has appointed him over his house, and over all that he has, that YHWH blesses the house of the Egyptian for Joseph’s sake, and the blessing of YHWH is on all that he has, 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.
and he leaves all that he has in the hand of Joseph, and he has not known anything that he has, except the bread which he is eating. And Joseph is of a handsome form, and of a handsome appearance.
7 Dumating ang panahon na pinagnanasaan si Jose ng asawa ng kanyang amo. Sinabi niya, “Sumiping ka sa akin”.
And it comes to pass after these things, that his lord’s wife lifts up her eyes to Joseph and says, “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.
and he refuses and says to his lord’s wife, “Behold, my lord has not known what [is] with me in the house, and all that he has he has given 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?”
none is greater in this house than I, and he has not withheld from me anything, except you, because you [are] his wife; and how will I do this great evil? Then I have sinned against God.”
10 Kinausap niya si Jose sa bawat araw, ngunit tumanggi pa rin siya na sipingan siya o para makasama siya.
And it comes to pass at her speaking to Joseph day [by] day, that he has not listened to her, to lie near her, 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.
and it comes to pass about this day, that he goes into the house to do his work, and there is none of the men of the house there in the house,
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 catches him by his garment, saying, “Lie with me”; and he leaves his garment in her hand, and flees, and goes outside.
13 Dumating ang panahon, nang makita niya na naiwanan ni Jose ang kanyang damit sa kanyang kamay at lumayo palabas,
And it comes to pass, when she sees that he has left his garment in her hand, and flees 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.
that she calls for the men of her house, and speaks to them, saying, “See, he has brought a man to us, a Hebrew, to play with us; he has come in to me, to lie with me, and I call 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 it comes to pass, when he hears that I have lifted up my voice and call, that he leaves his garment near me, and flees, and goes outside.”
16 Tinabi niya ang damit hanggang sa makauwi ang kanyang amo sa bahay.
And she places his garment near her, until the coming in of his lord 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 speaks to him according to these words, saying, “The Hebrew servant whom you have brought to us, has come in to me to play with me;
18 Nang sumigaw ako, iniwan niya ang kanyang damit sa akin at lumayo palabas.”
and it comes to pass, when I lift my voice and call, that he leaves his garment near me, and flees 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.
And it comes to pass, when his lord hears the words of his wife, which she has spoken to him, saying, “According to these things has your servant done to me,” that his anger burns;
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 Joseph’s lord takes him, and puts him to the round-house, a place where the king’s prisoners [are] bound; and he is there in the round-house.
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 YHWH is with Joseph, and stretches out kindness to him, and puts his grace in the eyes of the chief of the round-house;
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 of the round-house gives into the hand of Joseph all the prisoners who [are] in the round-house, and of all that they are doing there, he has been doer;
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 chief of the round-house does not see anything under his hand, because YHWH [is] with him, and that which he is doing YHWH is causing to prosper.
