Бытие 39
1 Иосиф же приведен бысть во Египет. И купи его Пентефрий евнух фараонов архимагир, муж Египтянин, от рук Исмаилтян, иже приведоша его тамо.
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 Ishmeelites, which had brought him down thither.
2 И бяше Господь со Иосифом: и бяше муж благополучен, и бысть в дому господина своего Египтянина.
And the LORD was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man; and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian.
3 Ведяше же господин его, яко Господь бе с ним, и елика творит, Господь благоустрояет в руку его.
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 И обрете Иосиф благодать пред господином своим и благоугоди ему: и постави его над домом своим, и вся, елика быша ему, даде в руки Иосифовы.
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 Бысть же егда постави его над домом своим и над всеми, елика имеяше, и благослови Господь дом Египтянина Иосифа ради: и бысть благословение Господне на всем имении его в дому и в селех его.
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 upon all that he had in the house, and in the field.
6 И предаде вся, елика быша ему, в руки Иосифовы: и не ведяше от сущих у себе ничтоже, кроме хлеба, егоже ядяше сам: и бяше Иосиф добр образом и красен взором зело.
And he left all that he had in Joseph’s hand; and he knew not ought he had, save the bread which he did eat. And Joseph was [a] goodly [person], and well favoured.
7 И бысть по словесех сих, и возложи жена господина его очи своя на Иосифа и рече: пребуди со мною.
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 Он же не хотяше и рече жене господина своего: аще господин мой не весть мене ради ничтоже в дому своем, и вся, елика суть ему, вдаде в руце мои,
But he refused, and said unto his master’s wife, Behold, my master wotteth not what [is] with me in the house, and he hath committed all that he hath to my hand;
9 и ничто есть выше мене в дому сем, ниже изято бысть от мене чтолибо, кроме тебе, понеже ты жена ему еси: и како сотворю глагол злый сей и согрешу пред Богом?
[There is] none 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 Егда же Иосифу глаголаше день от дне, и не послушаше ея еже спати и быти с нею.
And it came to pass, as she spake to Joseph day by day, that he hearkened not unto her, to lie by her, [or] to be with her.
11 Бысть же сицевый некий день, и вниде Иосиф в дом делати дела своя, и никтоже бяше от сущих в дому внутрь:
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 и ухвати его за ризы, глаголющи: лязи со мною. И оставив ризы своя в руках ея, убеже и изыде вон.
And 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 И бысть егда виде, яко оставль ризы своя в руках ея, бежа и изыде вон:
And it came to pass, when she saw that he had left his garment in her hand, and was fled forth,
14 и воззва сущих в дому и рече им глаголющи: видите, введе нам отрока Евреина наругатися нам: вниде ко мне, глаголя: преспи со мною: и возопих гласом великим:
That she called unto the men of her house, and spake unto them, saying, See, he hath brought in an Hebrew unto us to mock us; he came in unto me to lie with me, and I cried with a loud voice:
15 и егда услыша он, яко возвысих глас мой и возопих, оставль ризы своя у мене, отбеже и изыде вон.
And it came to pass, when he heard that I lifted up my voice and cried, that he left his garment with me, and fled, and got him out.
16 И удержа ризы у себе, дондеже прииде господин в дом свой.
And she laid up his garment by her, until his lord came home.
17 И поведа ему по словесех сих, глаголющи: вниде ко мне отрок Евреин, егоже ввел еси к нам, поругатися мне, и рече ми: да буду с тобою:
And she spake unto him according to these words, saying, The Hebrew servant, which thou hast brought unto us, came in unto me to mock me:
18 егда же услыша, яко воздвигох глас мой и возопих, оставль ризы своя у мене, отбеже и изыде вон.
And it came to pass, as I lifted up my voice and cried, that he left his garment with me, and fled out.
19 И бысть егда услыша господин его глаголы жены своея, елика рече к нему, глаголющи: сице сотвори ми отрок твой: и разгневася яростию,
And it came to pass, when his master heard the words of his wife, which she spake unto him, saying, After this manner did thy servant to me; that his wrath was kindled.
20 и взем господин Иосифа, вверже его в темницу, в место, идеже узники царевы держатся тамо в твердыни.
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 И бяше Господь со Иосифом, и возлия на него милость, и даде ему благодать пред началным стражем темничным:
But the LORD was with Joseph, and shewed him mercy, and gave him favour in the sight of the keeper of the prison.
22 и вдаде старейшина стражей темницу в руце Иосифу и всех вверженых в темницу: и вся, елика творяху тамо, той бе творяй.
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 Старейшина же стражей темничных ничтоже бе ведый его ради: вся бо быша в руках Иосифовых, занеже Господь бяше с ним: и елика той творяше, Господь благопоспешаше в руку его.
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.
