Génesis 39
Zürcher Bibel 1931
1ALS aber Joseph nach Ägypten hinabgeführt worden war, kaufte ihn Potiphar, der Kämmerer des Pharao, der Oberste der Leibwache, ein Ägypter, von den Ismaelitern, die ihn dorthin gebracht hatten. (a) 1Mo 37:36
2Und der Herr war mit Joseph, und es geriet ihm alles wohl, sodass er im Hause seines Gebieters, des Ägypters, bleiben durfte.
3Als nun sein Gebieter sah, dass der Herr mit ihm war und dass der Herr alles, was er tat, in seiner Hand wohl gelingen liess,
4kam Joseph in grosse Gunst bei ihm und wurde sein Leibdiener; und er setzte ihn über sein Haus, und alles, was er hatte, übergab er ihm.
5Und von der Zeit an, da er ihn über sein Haus und alle seine Güter gesetzt hatte, segnete der Herr das Haus des Ägypters um Josephs willen, und der Segen des Herrn ruhte auf allem, was er hatte, in Haus und Feld.
6Darum überliess er Joseph alles, was er hatte, und kümmerte sich neben ihm um nichts als um die Speise, die er ass. Joseph aber war schön von Gestalt und schön von Aussehen.
7Darnach begab es sich, dass die Frau seines Herrn ihre Augen auf Joseph warf und sprach: Lege dich zu mir!
8Er aber weigerte sich und sprach zu der Frau seines Herrn: Sieh, mein Herr kümmert sich neben mir um nichts im Hause, und alles, was er besitzt, hat er mir übergeben.
9Er selbst ist in diesem Hause nicht grösser als ich; er hat mir nichts vorenthalten als dich, weil du sein Weib bist. Wie sollte ich da ein so grosses Unrecht begehen und wider Gott sündigen?
10Und ob sie auch täglich Joseph zuredete, hörte er nicht auf sie, dass er sich zu ihr gelegt hätte, um mit ihr Umgang zu pflegen.
11Es begab sich aber eines Tages, dass Joseph ins Haus kam, seine Geschäfte zu besorgen, als gerade niemand vom Gesinde zugegen war.
12Da fasste sie ihn beim Kleide und sprach: Lege dich zu mir! Er aber liess sein Kleid in ihrer Hand und floh und lief zum Hause hinaus.
13Als sie nun sah, dass er sein Kleid in ihrer Hand gelassen hatte und zum Hause hinaus geflohen war,
14rief sie ihr Gesinde und sprach zu ihnen: Seht, da hat er uns einen Hebräer ins Haus gebracht, dass der seinen Mutwillen mit uns treibe. Er kam zu mir herein, um sich zu mir zu legen; aber ich schrie laut.
15Und als er hörte, dass ich ein Geschrei erhob und rief, liess er sein Kleid neben mir und floh und lief zum Hause hinaus.
16Und sie liess sein Kleid neben sich liegen, bis sein Herr heimkam.
17Da erzählte sie ihm dieselbe Geschichte und sprach: Der hebräische Sklave, den du uns ins Haus gebracht hast, dass er seinen Mutwillen mit mir treibe, ist zu mir hereingekommen.
18Wie ich aber ein Geschrei erhob und rief, liess er sein Kleid neben mir und floh zum Hause hinaus.
19Als sein Herr die Geschichte hörte, die ihm seine Frau erzählte, indem sie sagte: "So und so hat dein Sklave an mir getan", ward er sehr zornig,
20und er nahm Joseph und legte ihn in das Gefängnis, wo die Gefangenen des Königs in Gewahrsam lagen. Und er blieb daselbst im Gefängnis.
21Der Herr aber war mit Joseph und machte ihn beliebt und erwarb ihm die Gunst des Aufsehers über das Gefängnis,
22also dass ihm dieser alle Gefangenen im Gefängnis anvertraute; alles, was dort geschah, geschah durch ihn.
23Der Aufseher über das Gefängnis kümmerte sich um nichts, was in seiner Hand lag, weil der Herr mit ihm war; und der Herr gab Glück zu allem, was er tat.
Reina-Valera 1909
1Y LLEVADO José á Egipto, comprólo Potiphar, eunuco de Faraón, capitán de los de la guardia, varón Egipcio, de mano de los Ismaelitas que lo habían llevado allá.
2Mas Jehová fué con José, y fué varón prosperado: y estaba en la casa de su señor el Egipcio.
3Y vió su señor que Jehová era con él, y que todo lo que él hacía, Jehová lo hacía prosperar en su mano.
4Así halló José gracia en sus ojos, y servíale; y él le hizo mayordomo de su casa, y entregó en su poder todo lo que tenía.
5Y aconteció que, desde cuando le dió el encargo de su casa, y de todo lo que tenía, Jehová bendijo la casa del Egipcio á causa de José; y la bendición de Jehová fué sobre todo lo que tenía, así en casa como en el campo.
6Y dejó todo lo que tenía en mano de José; ni con él sabía de nada más que del pan que comía. Y era José de hermoso semblante y bella presencia.
7Y aconteció después de esto, que la mujer de su señor puso sus ojos en José, y dijo: Duerme conmigo.
8Y él no quiso, y dijo á la mujer de su señor: He aquí que mi señor no sabe conmigo lo que hay en casa, y ha puesto en mi mano todo lo que tiene:
9No hay otro mayor que yo en esta casa, y ninguna cosa me ha reservado sino á ti, por cuanto tú eres su mujer; ¿cómo, pues, haría yo este grande mal, y pecaría contra Dios?
10Y fué que hablando ella á José cada día, y no escuchándola él para acostarse al lado de ella, para estar con ella,
11Aconteció que entró él un día en casa para hacer su oficio, y no había nadie de los de casa allí en casa:
12Y asiólo ella por su ropa, diciendo: Duerme conmigo. Entonces dejóla él su ropa en las manos, y huyó, y salióse fuera.
13Y acaeció que cuando vió ella que le había dejado su ropa en sus manos, y había huído fuera,
14Llamó á los de casa, y hablóles diciendo: Mirad, nos ha traído un Hebreo, para que hiciese burla de nosotros: vino él á mí para dormir conmigo, y yo dí grandes voces;
15Y viendo que yo alzaba la voz y gritaba, dejó junto á mí su ropa, y huyó, y salióse fuera.
16Y ella puso junto á sí la ropa de él, hasta que vino su señor á su casa.
17Entonces le habló ella semejantes palabras, diciendo: El siervo Hebreo que nos trajiste, vino á mí para deshonrarme;
18Y como yo alcé mi voz y grité, él dejó su ropa junto á mí, y huyó fuera.
19Y sucedió que como oyó su señor las palabras que su mujer le hablara, diciendo: Así me ha tratado tu siervo; encendióse su furor.
20Y tomó su señor á José, y púsole en la casa de la cárcel, donde estaban los presos del rey, y estuvo allí en la casa de la cárcel.
21Mas Jehová fué con José, y extendió á él su misericordia, y dióle gracia en ojos del principal de la casa de la cárcel.
22Y el principal de la casa de la cárcel entregó en mano de José todos los presos que había en aquella prisión; todo lo que hacían allí, él lo hacía.
23No veía el principal de la cárcel cosa alguna que en su mano estaba; porque Jehová era con él, y lo que él hacía, Jehová lo prosperaba.
King James Version
1And 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.
2And the LORD was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man; and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian.
3And his master saw that the LORD was with him, and that the LORD made all that he did to prosper in his hand.
4And 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.
5And 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.
6And 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.
7And it came to pass after these things, that his master’s wife cast her eyes upon Joseph; and she said, Lie with me.
8But 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;
9There 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?
10And 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.
11And 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.
12And she caught him by his garment, saying, Lie with me: and he left his garment in her hand, and fled, and got him out.
13And it came to pass, when she saw that he had left his garment in her hand, and was fled forth,
14That 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:
15And 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.
16And she laid up his garment by her, until his lord came home.
17And 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:
18And it came to pass, as I lifted up my voice and cried, that he left his garment with me, and fled out.
19And 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.
20And 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.
21But the LORD was with Joseph, and shewed him mercy, and gave him favour in the sight of the keeper of the prison.
22And 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.
23The 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.
World English Bible
1Joseph was brought down to Egypt. Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh’s, the captain of the guard, an Egyptian, bought him from the hand of the Ishmaelites that had brought him down there.
2The LORD was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man. He was in the house of his master the Egyptian.
3His master saw that the LORD was with him, and that the LORD made all that he did prosper in his hand.
4Joseph found favor in his sight. He ministered to him, and Potiphar made him overseer over his house, and all that he had he put into his hand.
5From the time that he made him overseer in his house, and over all that he had, the LORD blessed the Egyptian’s house for Joseph’s sake. The LORD’s blessing was on all that he had, in the house and in the field.
6He left all that he had in Joseph’s hand. He didn’t concern himself with anything, except for the food which he ate. Joseph was well-built and handsome.
7After these things, his master’s wife set her eyes on Joseph; and she said, “Lie with me.”
8But he refused, and said to his master’s wife, “Behold, my master doesn’t know what is with me in the house, and he has put all that he has into my hand.
9No one is greater in this house than I am, and he has not kept back anything from me but you, because you are his wife. How then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?”
10As she spoke to Joseph day by day, he didn’t listen to her, to lie by her, or to be with her.
11About this time, he went into the house to do his work, and there were none of the men of the house inside.
12She caught him by his garment, saying, “Lie with me!” He left his garment in her hand, and ran outside.
13When she saw that he had left his garment in her hand, and had run outside,
14she called to the men of her house, and spoke to them, saying, “Behold, he has brought a Hebrew in to us to mock us. He came in to me to lie with me, and I cried with a loud voice.
15When he heard that I lifted up my voice and cried, he left his garment by me, and ran outside.”
16She laid up his garment by her, until his master came home.
17She spoke to him according to these words, saying, “The Hebrew servant, whom you have brought to us, came in to me to mock me,
18and as I lifted up my voice and cried, he left his garment by me, and ran outside.”
19When his master heard the words of his wife, which she spoke to him, saying, “This is what your servant did to me,” his wrath was kindled.
20Joseph’s master took him, and put him into the prison, the place where the king’s prisoners were bound, and he was there in custody.
21But the LORD was with Joseph, and showed kindness to him, and gave him favor in the sight of the keeper of the prison.
22The keeper of the prison committed to Joseph’s hand all the prisoners who were in the prison. Whatever they did there, he was responsible for it.
23The keeper of the prison didn’t look after anything that was under his hand, because the LORD was with him; and that which he did, the LORD made it prosper.
