Genesis Chapter 39The Webster Bible2: And the LORD was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man: and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian. 3: 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: And Joseph found grace in his sight, and he served him: and he made him overseer over his house, and all [that] he had he put into his hand. 5: And it came to pass from the time [that] he had made 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 on all that he had in the house, and in the field. 6: And he left all that he had in Joseph's hand; and he knew not aught he had, save the bread which he ate; and Joseph was [a] goodly [person], and well favored. 7: 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: But he refused, and said to his master's wife, Behold, my master knoweth not what [is] with me in the house, and he hath committed all that he hath to my hand: 9: [There is] none greater in his 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: And it came to pass, as she spoke to Joseph day by day, that he hearkened not to her, to lie by her, [or] to be with her. 11: And it came to pass, about this time, that [Joseph] went into the house to do his business; and [there was] none of the men of the house there within. 12: And she caught him by his garment, saying, Lie with me: and he left his garment in her hand, and fled, and went out. 13: And it came to pass, when she saw that he had left his garment in her hand, and had fled forth, 14: That she called to the men of her house, and spoke to them, saying, See, he hath brought in a Hebrew to us to mock us: he came in to me to lie with me, and I cried with a loud voice: 15: And it came to pass, when he heard that I raised my voice and cried, that he left his garment with me, and fled, and went out. 16: And she laid up his garment by her until his lord came home. 17: And she spoke to him according to these words, saying, The Hebrew servant, which thou hast brought to us, came in to me to mock me. 18: And it came to pass, as I raised my voice and cried, that he left his garment with me, and fled. 19: And it came to pass, when his master heard the words of his wife, which she spoke to him, saying, After this manner did thy servant to me; that his wrath was kindled. 20: And Joseph's master took him, and put him into the prison, a place where the king's prisoners [were] bound: and he was there in the prison. 21: But the LORD was with Joseph, and showed him mercy, and gave him favor in the sight of the keeper of the prison. 22: And the keeper of the prison committed to Joseph's hand all the prisoners that [were] in the prison; and whatever they did there, was done by him. 23: 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.
