Chakruok 39
1 Koro Josef noseter Misri. Potifa ma ja-Misri mane en achiel kuom jatend Farao, kendo jaduongʼ od ruoth nongʼiewe kuom jo-Ishmael mane okele kanyo.
And Joseph was brought down to Egypt: and Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh, captain of the guard, an Egyptian, bought him of the hands of the Ishmaelites, who had brought him down thither.
2 Jehova Nyasaye ne ni kod Josef kendo nogwedhe, kendo nodak e od ruodhe ma ja-Misri.
And the LORD was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man: and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian.
3 Kane ruodhe oneno ni Jehova Nyasaye ne ni kode kendo ni Jehova Nyasaye nogwedho gik moko duto ma otimo,
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 nobedo mamor gi Josef kendo Josef notiyone, Potifa nokete jarit ode kod mwandu duto mane en-go.
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 Chakre ndalo mane okete jarit ode kendo jarit gik moko duto ma en-go, Jehova Nyasaye nogwedho gik moko duto mane ni e od ja-Misri nikech Josef. Jehova Nyasaye nogwedho gimoro amora mane Potifa nigo e ot kod e puodho.
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 Omiyo noweyo gik moko duto mane en-go e lwet Josef kaka jarit; makoro Potifa ne ok odewo rango gimoro amora makmana chiemo mane ochamo. Josef ne nigi chia kendo jaber.
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 Kendo bangʼ kinde manok, chi ruodh Josef norange kagombe kendo nowachone niya, “Bi e kitanda ka mondo iriwri koda.”
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 To Josef nodagi mowachone niya, “Ruodha ongʼeyo gimoro amora manie odni, gimoro amora ma en-go oseketo e lweta.
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 Onge ngʼama nigi teko e odni moloya. Ruodha ok osetama gimoro amora manie odni makmana in, nikech in chiege. Koro ere kaka anyalo timo tim richo kendo makwero ma Nyasaye odagi?”
[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 To nodhi nyime kowachone Josef wechego odiechiengʼ kodiechiengʼ, to notamore riwore kode kata bedo bute.
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 Chiengʼ moro achiel Josef nodhi e od ruodhe mondo otim tije kaka pile kendo ne onge jatich moro amora e ot.
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 Chi Potifa ne omake gilawe kendo owachone niya, “Bi mondo ibed koda e achiel!” To Josef noringo mowuok oko mar odno kendo noweyo lawe e lwet chi Potifa.
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 Kane dhakono oneno ni Josef oweyo lawe e lwete kendo oringo owuok oko mar ot,
And it came to pass, when she saw that he had left his garment in her hand, and had fled forth,
14 noluongo jotichge mag ot mowachonegi niya, “Neuru, ja-Hibraniani osekelnwa mondo okuod wiwa! Nodonjo ira ka mondo oriwre koda, to ne agoyo uwi matek.
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 Kane owinjo ka agoyo uwi matek mondo okonya, noringo moweyo lawe sa ma noringo owuok oko mar ot.”
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 Dhakono nokano lawno nyaka chwore noduogo dala.
And she laid up his garment by her until his lord came home.
17 Eka nowacho ne chwore wachni niya, “Jatich ma ja-Hibrania manyocha ikelonwa nobiro ira mondo okuod wiya.
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 To ka ne agoyo uwi mondo okonya, noweya gi nangane, kendo oringo owuok oko.”
And it came to pass, as I raised my voice and cried, that he left his garment with me, and fled.
19 Ka ruodhe nowinjo gima chiege owachone kuom gima jatichne osetimone, iye nowangʼ matek.
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 Ruodh Josef nomako Josef mokete e od twech, kamane ikanoe joma otwe mag ruoth. To kane Josef ni e od twech,
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 Jehova Nyasaye ne ni kode; notimone kech kendo nomiyo oyudo ngʼwono e nyim jorit joma ne otwe.
But the LORD was with Joseph, and showed him mercy, and gave him favor in the sight of the keeper of the prison.
22 Kuom mano jaduongʼ mar od twech noketo Josef jatend joma otwe duto e od twech kendo Josef ema norito gik moko duto mane itimo kanyo.
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 Jarit joma ni e od twech ne ok odewo rango gimoro amora mane oseketo e lwet Josef, nikech Jehova Nyasaye ne ni kod Josef kendo nogwedhe e gimoro amora mane otimo.
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.
