اما یوسف را به مصر بردند، و مردی مصری، فوطیفار نام که خواجه و سردارافواج خاصه فرعون بود، وی را از دست اسماعیلیانی که او را بدانجا برده بودند، خرید. ۱ 1
Now Joseph was brought down to Egypt, and Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh's, the captain of the guard, an Egyptian, bought him from the Ishmaelites who had brought him down there.
وخداوند با یوسف می‌بود، و او مردی کامیاب شد، و در خانه آقای مصری خود ماند. ۲ 2
And the LORD was with Joseph, and he became a successful man. And he was in the household of his master the Egyptian.
و آقایش دیدکه خداوند با وی می‌باشد، و هر‌آنچه او می‌کند، خداوند در دستش راست می‌آورد. ۳ 3
And his master saw that God was with him, and that God made everything that he did to succeed in his hands.
پس یوسف در نظر وی التفات یافت، و او را خدمت می‌کرد، واو را به خانه خود برگماشت و تمام مایملک خویش را بدست وی سپرد. ۴ 4
So Joseph found favor in the sight of his master, and attended him, and he made him overseer of his house, and all that he had he put under his authority.
و واقع شد بعد ازآنکه او را بر خانه و تمام مایملک خود گماشته بود، که خداوند خانه آن مصری را بسبب یوسف برکت داد، و برکت خداوند بر همه اموالش، چه در خانه و چه در صحرا بود. ۵ 5
And it came about that from the time that he made him overseer of his household and over all that he had, that the LORD blessed the Egyptian's house because of Joseph; and the blessing of the LORD was on all that he had, in the house and in the field.
و آنچه داشت به‌دست یوسف واگذاشت، و از آنچه با وی بود، خبر نداشت جز نانی که می‌خورد. و یوسف خوش اندام و نیک منظر بود. ۶ 6
So he left everything that he had in Joseph's care. He did not concern himself with anything, except for the food which he ate. Now Joseph was handsome in form and appearance.
و بعد از این امور واقع شد که زن آقایش بریوسف نظر انداخته، گفت: «با من همخواب شو.» ۷ 7
And it came to pass after these things that his master's wife took notice of Joseph and she said, "Sleep with me."
اما او ابا نموده، به زن آقای خود گفت: «اینک آقایم از آنچه نزد من در خانه است، خبر ندارد، وآنچه دارد، به‌دست من سپرده است. ۸ 8
But he refused, and said to his master's wife, "Look, my master does not concern himself with anything in his house, and he has put all that he has into my care.
بزرگتری ازمن در این خانه نیست و چیزی از من دریغ نداشته، جز تو، چون زوجه او می‌باشی؛ پس چگونه مرتکب این شرارت بزرگ بشوم و به خدا خطاورزم؟» ۹ 9
There is no one greater in this household than I am, nor has he kept back anything from me but you, since you are his wife. How then can I do such a great evil, and sin against God?"
و اگرچه هر روزه به یوسف سخن می‌گفت، به وی گوش نمی گرفت که با او بخوابد یانزد وی بماند. ۱۰ 10
And although she spoke to Joseph day after day, he did not listen to her to sleep with her or to be with her.
و روزی واقع شد که به خانه درآمد، تا به شغل خود پردازد و از اهل خانه کسی آنجا درخانه نبود. ۱۱ 11
Now it happened about this time that he went into the house to do his work, and there were none of the men of the house inside.
پس جامه او را گرفته، گفت: «با من بخواب.» اما او جامه خود را به‌دستش رها کرده، گریخت و بیرون رفت. ۱۲ 12
She grabbed him by his garment, saying, "Sleep with me." And he left his garment in her hand and ran outside.
و چون او دید که رخت خود را به‌دست وی ترک کرد و از خانه گریخت، ۱۳ 13
When she saw that he had left his garment in her hand and had run outside,
مردان خانه راصدا زد، و بدیشان بیان کرده، گفت: «بنگرید، مردعبرانی را نزد ما آورد تا ما را مسخره کند، و نزدمن آمد تا با من بخوابد، و به آواز بلند فریاد کردم، ۱۴ 14
she called to the men of her house, and spoke to them, saying, "Look, he has brought in a Hebrew to us to mock us. He came in to me to sleep with me, and I cried with a loud voice.
و چون شنید که به آواز بلند فریاد برآوردم، جامه خود را نزد من واگذارده، فرار کرد و بیرون رفت.» ۱۵ 15
It happened, when he heard that I raised my voice and cried out, that he left his garment by me and ran outside."
پس جامه او را نزد خود نگاه داشت، تاآقایش به خانه آمد. ۱۶ 16
She left his garment by her, until his master came home.
و به وی بدین مضمون ذکر کرده، گفت: «آن غلام عبرانی که برای ماآورده‌ای، نزد من آمد تا مرا مسخره کند، ۱۷ 17
And she told him the same story, saying, "The Hebrew servant, whom you have brought to us, came in to me to mock me, and said to me, 'Let me sleep with you.'
وچون به آواز بلند فریاد برآوردم، جامه خود راپیش من رها کرده، بیرون گریخت.» ۱۸ 18
But when I raised my voice and cried out, he left his garment beside me and ran outside."
پس چون آقایش سخن زن خود را شنید که به وی بیان کرده، گفت: «غلامت به من چنین کرده است، » خشم او افروخته شد. ۱۹ 19
And it happened when his master heard the words that his wife spoke to him, saying, "This is what your servant did to me," that he became furious.
و آقای یوسف، او را گرفته، در زندان خانه‌ای که اسیران پادشاه بسته بودند، انداخت و آنجا در زندان ماند. ۲۰ 20
Then 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 prison.
اماخداوند با یوسف می‌بود و بر وی احسان می‌فرمود، و او را در نظر داروغه زندان حرمت داد. ۲۱ 21
But the LORD was with Joseph and showed him kindness and gave him favor in the sight of the keeper of the prison.
و داروغه زندان همه زندانیان را که درزندان بودند، به‌دست یوسف سپرد. و آنچه درآنجا می‌کردند، او کننده آن بود. ۲۲ 22
The keeper of the prison put Joseph in charge of all the prisoners who were in the prison; he was made responsible for everything that was done there.
و داروغه زندان بدانچه در دست وی بود، نگاه نمی کرد، زیرا خداوند با وی می‌بود و آنچه را که او می‌کرد، خداوند راست می‌آورد. ۲۳ 23
The keeper of the prison paid no attention to anything that was under his supervision, because God was with him, and made everything he did successful.
