6 Enti ɔde nʼagyapade nyinaa hyɛɛ Yosef nsa. Esiane sɛ Potifar de nʼagyapade ne nʼadwumade nyinaa hyɛɛ Yosef nsa nti, wannwene biribiara ho sɛ aduan a obedi nko ara. Na Yosef yɛ aberante a ɔwɔ nnyinaso, na ne ho nso yɛ fɛ yiye.
Ya mere, ọ hapụrụ ihe niile o nwere nʼaka Josef. Nke a mere na ọ mazighị ihe ọzọ na-eme, ma ọ bụghị nri nke ọ na-eri. Josef nʼonwe ya mara mma ahụ dịkwa mma ile anya.
7 Ankyɛ ahe biara na Yosef wura Potifar yere tuu nʼani sii ne so, ka kyerɛɛ Yosef se, “Bra, na wo ne me mmɛda!”
Mgbe oge nta gasịrị, nwunye Pọtifa lere Josef anya sị ya, “Bịa ka anyị abụọ dinaa.”
8 Nanso Yosef ampene so, ka kyerɛɛ ne wura yere no se, “Esiane sɛ fie ha biribiara hyɛ me nsa nti, me wura nnwen fie ha biribiara ho. Ɔde nʼagyapade nyinaa ahyɛ me nsa.
Ma Josef jụrụ. Ọ gwara nwunye nna ya ukwu sị, “Lee, nna m ukwu anaghị echegbu onwe ya banyere ihe ọbụla nʼụlọ a. O werela ihe niile o nwere nyefee m nʼaka ka m lekọta ha anya.

10 Ɛwɔ mu sɛ da biara na Potifar yere no de saa asɛm yi hiahia Yosef ho de, nanso Yosef antwiw ammɛn no mpo, na akowie sɛ ɔne no bɛda.
Ọ bụ ezie na nwanyị a nọgidere na-enye Josef nsogbu site nʼụbọchị ruo ụbọchị ma Josef jụrụ iso ya dinaa, jụkwa ịnọnyere ya.
11 Da koro bi, Yosef kɔɔ fie hɔ sɛ ɔrekɔyɛ nʼadwuma. Oduu hɔ no, na asomfo no mu biara nni hɔ.
Otu ụbọchị, Josef batara nʼime ụlọ ịrụ ọrụ ya. O nweghị ndị ọzọ na-eje ozi nọ nʼime ụlọ nʼụbọchị ahụ.
12 Potifar yere no soo Yosef atade mu kyeree no, ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Bra na wo ne me mmɛda!” Nanso Yosef yii nʼatade no guu ne so, guan fii fie hɔ.
Nwunye Pọtifa jidere Josef nʼuwe mwụda ya, rịọọ ya sị ya, “Bịa ka anyị dinaa.” Ma Josef si nʼime ụlọ ahụ gbapụ, hapụ uwe mwụda ya nʼaka nwunye Pọtifa.
13 Potifar yere no huu sɛ Yosef agyaw nʼatade wɔ ne nsam aguan afi fie hɔ no,
Mgbe nwanyị a hụrụ na Josef agbapụla, hapụ uwe ya,
14 ɔfrɛɛ ne fifo, de nteɛteɛmu ka kyerɛɛ wɔn se, “Monhwɛ! Me kunu akɔfa Hebrini bi aba fie ha sɛ ommegu yɛn anim ase. Ɔbaa ha sɛ ɔrebɛto me mmonnaa na meteɛteɛɛ mu.
ọ kpọrọ ndị na-eje ozi nʼezinaụlọ ya sị ha, “Lee, onye Hibru a di m kpọbatara nʼụlọ a chọrọ iji anyị gwurie egwu. Ọ bịakwutere m nʼime ụlọ chọọ ka mụ na ya dinaa. E tiri m mkpu nʼolu ike.

Mgbe ọ nụrụ ka m welitere olu m tie mkpu enyemaka m tiri, o sitere nʼime ụlọ a gbapụ, ma hapụrụ m uwe ya.”
16 Potifar yere no de Yosef atade a oyi guu ne so no siei, kosii sɛ ne kunu bae.
Nwanyị a debere uwe ahụ nʼakụkụ ya ruo mgbe nna ya ukwu lọtara nʼụlọ.
17 Ɔbea no bɔɔ ne kunu amanneɛ se, “Hebrini akoa no a wokɔtɔɔ no brɛɛ yɛn no baa me nkyɛn sɛ anka ɔrebɛto me mmonnaa.

Ma mgbe m welitere olu tie mkpu enyemaka o sitere nʼụlọ gbapụ hapụrụ m uwe ya.”
19 Bere a Yosef wura Potifar tee asɛm a ne yere ka kyerɛɛ no se, “Ɔkwan a wʼakoa no de me faa so ni” no, ne bo fuw yiye.
Mgbe nna ya ukwu nụrụ ihe nwunye ya gwara ya sị, “Otu a ka ohu gị si meso m mmeso,” o were iwe dị ọkụ.
20 Yosef wura Potifar tee asɛm no no, ɔkyeree Yosef kɔtoo afiase, faako a ɔhene nneduafo gu no. Bere a Yosef da afiase hɔ no,
Nna ukwu Josef weere ya tụnye nʼụlọ mkpọrọ, nʼebe a na-etinye ndị mkpọrọ eze Ijipt. Ma ebe ahụ Josef nọ nʼụlọ mkpọrọ,

Onyenwe anyị nọnyeere ya. O meere ya ebere, mekwa ka o nweta ihuọma nʼebe onyeisi ndị nche ụlọ mkpọrọ ahụ nọ.
22 Ɛyɛɛ saa maa afiase sohwɛfo panyin no de Yosef sii nneduafo no nyinaa so panyin, a na biribiara a wɔyɛ wɔ afiase hɔ no hyɛ ne nsa.
Onyeisi ndị na-eche ụlọ mkpọrọ mere Josef onyeisi ndị mkpọrọ niile nọ nʼime ụlọ mkpọrọ ahụ. Josef ghọrọ onye a na-ajụ otu ihe si aga nʼime ụlọ mkpọrọ ahụ.
