< Genesis 39 >

1 Nígbà tí wọ́n mú Josẹfu dé Ejibiti, Potifari, ará Ejibiti tí i ṣe ọ̀kan nínú àwọn ìjòyè Farao. Òun ni olórí àwọn ọmọ-ogun Farao. Ó ra Josẹfu lọ́wọ́ àwọn ará Iṣmaeli tí wọ́n mú un lọ síbẹ̀.
And Joseph was brought down to Egypt; and Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh's, the captain of the guard, an Egyptian, bought him of the hand of the Ishmaelites, that had brought him down thither.
2 Olúwa sì wà pẹ̀lú Josẹfu, ó sì bùkún un, ó sì ń gbé ní ilé ọ̀gá rẹ̀ ará Ejibiti.
And the LORD was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man; and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian.
3 Nígbà tí ọ̀gá rẹ̀ rí i pé Olúwa wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀, àti pé Olúwa jẹ́ kí ó máa ṣe àṣeyọrí nínú ohun gbogbo tí ó dáwọ́ rẹ̀ lé.
And his master saw that the LORD was with him, and that the LORD made all that he did to prosper in his hand.
4 Josẹfu sì rí ojúrere Potifari, ó sì di aṣojú rẹ̀, Potifari fi Josẹfu ṣe olórí ilé rẹ̀ àti ohun gbogbo tí ó ní.
And Joseph found favour in his sight, and he ministered unto him. And he appointed him overseer over his house, and all that he had he put into his hand.
5 Láti ìgbà tí ó ti fi Josẹfu jẹ olórí ilé rẹ̀ àti ohun ìní rẹ̀ gbogbo, ni Ọlọ́run ti bẹ̀rẹ̀ sí ní bùkún àwọn ará Ejibiti nítorí Josẹfu. Ìbùkún Olúwa wà lórí gbogbo ohun tí Potifari ní, nílé àti lóko.
And it came to pass from the time that he appointed him overseer in his house, and over all that he had, that the LORD blessed the Egyptian's house for Joseph's sake; and the blessing of the LORD was upon all that he had, in the house and in the field.
6 Ó sì fi Josẹfu ṣe àkóso gbogbo ohun tí ó ní. Kò sì ṣe ìyọnu lórí ohunkóhun mọ àyàfi nípa oúnjẹ tí ó ń jẹ láti ìgbà tí ó ti fi Josẹfu ṣe àkóso ilé e rẹ̀. Josẹfu sì jẹ́ arẹwà ọkùnrin ní ìdúró àti ìrísí rẹ̀,
And he left all that he had in Joseph's hand; and, having him, he knew not aught save the bread which he did eat. And Joseph was of beautiful form, and fair to look upon.
7 lẹ́yìn ìgbà díẹ̀, aya rẹ̀ ṣe àkíyèsí Josẹfu, ó sì wí fún un pé, “Wá bá mi lòpọ̀!”
And it came to pass after these things, that his master's wife cast her eyes upon Joseph; and she said: 'Lie with me.'
8 Ṣùgbọ́n Josẹfu kọ̀, ó sì wí fún aya ọ̀gá rẹ̀ pé, “Kíyèsi, Olúwa mi kò fi ohunkóhun dù mi nínú ilé yìí, gbogbo ohun ìní rẹ̀ ni ó fi lé mi lọ́wọ́.
But he refused, and said unto his master's wife: 'Behold, my master, having me, knoweth not what is in the house, and he hath put all that he hath into my hand;
9 Kò sí ẹni tí ó jù mi lọ nínú ilé yìí, ọ̀gá mi kò fi ohunkóhun dù mi àyàfi ìwọ, tí í ṣe aya rẹ̀. Báwo ni mo ṣe lè ṣe ohun búburú yìí, kí ń sì ṣẹ̀ sí Ọlọ́run?”
he is not greater in this house than I; neither hath he kept back any thing from me but thee, because thou art his wife. How then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?'
10 Bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé gbogbo ìgbà ni ó ń tẹnumọ́ èyí fún Josẹfu, Josẹfu kọ̀ láti bá a lòpọ̀. Ó tilẹ̀ kọ̀ láti máa dúró ni ibi tí ó bá wà.
And it came to pass, as she spoke to Joseph day by day, that he hearkened not unto her, to lie by her, or to be with her.
11 Ní ọjọ́ kan, Josẹfu lọ sínú ilé láti ṣe iṣẹ́, kò sì sí èyíkéyìí nínú àwọn ìránṣẹ́ ní tòsí.
And it came to pass on a certain day, when he went into the house to do his work, and there was none of the men of the house there within,
12 Ó sì di aṣọ Josẹfu mú, ó sì wí pé, “Wá bá mi lòpọ̀!” Ṣùgbọ́n Josẹfu fi aṣọ rẹ̀ sílẹ̀ sí i lọ́wọ́, ó sì sá jáde.
that she caught him by his garment, saying: 'Lie with me.' And he left his garment in her hand, and fled, and got him out.
13 Nígbà tí ó rí i pé ó ti fi aṣọ rẹ̀ sílẹ̀ sí òun lọ́wọ́, ó sì ti sá jáde,
And it came to pass, when she saw that he had left his garment in her hand, and was fled forth,
14 ó pe àwọn ìránṣẹ́ ilé náà, ó sì wí fún wọn pé, “Ẹ wò ó, ọkọ ọ̀ mi mú Heberu kan wọlé tọ̀ wá wá láti fi wá ṣe ẹlẹ́yà. Ó wọlé tọ̀ mí wá, láti bá mi lòpọ̀, ṣùgbọ́n mo kígbe.
that she called unto the men of her house, and spoke unto them, saying: 'See, he hath brought in a Hebrew unto us to mock us; he came in unto me to lie with me, and I cried with a loud voice.
15 Nígbà tí ó gbọ́ pé mo gbé ohùn mi sókè, tí mo sì kígbe, ó jọ̀wọ́ aṣọ rẹ̀ sọ́dọ̀ mi, ó sì sá, ó bọ́ sóde.”
And it came to pass, when he heard that I lifted up my voice and cried, that he left his garment by me, and fled, and got him out.'
16 Ó sì fi aṣọ náà sọ́dọ̀ títí tí ọkọ rẹ̀ fi dé.
And she laid up his garment by her, until his master came home.
17 Ó rò fún un pé, “Ẹrú ará Heberu tí o rà wá ilé láti fi wá ṣẹlẹ́yà wá láti bá mi lòpọ̀.
And she spoke unto him according to these words, saying: 'The Hebrew servant, whom thou hast brought unto us, came in unto me to mock me.
18 Ṣùgbọ́n bí mo ti kígbe fún ìrànlọ́wọ́, ó sì sá kúrò nínú ilé.”
And it came to pass, as I lifted up my voice and cried, that he left his garment by me, and fled out.'
19 Nígbà tí Potifari gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ aya rẹ̀ pé báyìí ni ẹrú rẹ̀ ṣe sí aya rẹ̀, ó bínú gidigidi.
And it came to pass, when his master heard the words of his wife, which she spoke unto him, saying: 'After this manner did thy servant to me'; that his wrath was kindled.
20 Ó sì ju Josẹfu sí ẹ̀wọ̀n, níbi tí a ń ju àwọn ẹlẹ́wọ̀n ọba sí. Ṣùgbọ́n, nígbà tí Josẹfu wà nínú ẹ̀wọ̀n níbẹ̀,
And 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 the prison.
21 Olúwa sì wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀, ó sì ṣàánú fún un, ó sì mú kí ó rí ojúrere àwọn alábojútó ọgbà ẹ̀wọ̀n.
But the LORD was with Joseph, and showed kindness unto him, and gave him favour in the sight of the keeper of the prison.
22 Nítorí náà, alábojútó ọgbà ẹlẹ́wọ̀n fi Josẹfu ṣe alákòóso ohun gbogbo tí ó wà nínú ẹ̀wọ̀n, àti ohun tí wọn ń ṣe níbẹ̀.
And the keeper of the prison committed to Joseph's hand all the prisoners that were in the prison; and whatsoever they did there, he was the doer of it.
23 Wọ́dà náà kò sì mikàn nípa gbogbo ohun tí ó fi sí abẹ́ àkóso Josẹfu, nítorí pé Olúwa wà pẹ̀lú Josẹfu, ó sì ń jẹ́ kí ó ṣe àṣeyọrí nínú ohun gbogbo tí ó dáwọ́lé.
The keeper of the prison looked not to any thing that was under his hand, because the LORD was with him; and that which he did, the LORD made it to prosper.
