創39

創世記-Genesis 第 39 章

39:1	約瑟被帶下埃及去。有一個埃及人，法老的內臣，護衛長波提乏，從那些帶他下來的以實瑪利人手下把他買去。 Now Joseph was brought down to Egypt; and Potiphar, an official of Pharaoh, the captain of the guard, an Egyptian, bought him from the Ishmaelites who had brought him down there.
39:2	約瑟住在他主人埃及人的家中，耶和華與他同在，他就凡事亨通。 And Jehovah was with Joseph, and he became a prosperous man; and he was in the house of his Egyptian master.
39:3	他主人見耶和華與他同在，又見耶和華使他手裏所辦的盡都順利， And his master saw that Jehovah was with him and that Jehovah caused all that he did to prosper in his hand.
39:4	約瑟就在主人眼前蒙恩，伺候他主人；主人派他管理家務，把一切所有的都交在他手裏。 And Joseph found favor in his sight, and he ministered to him; and he made him overseer of his house and put all that he hadin his charge.
39:5	自從主人派約瑟管理家務和他一切所有的，耶和華就因約瑟的緣故賜福與那埃及人的家；他家裏和田間一切所有的，都蒙耶和華賜福。 And from the time he made him overseer in his house and put him over all that he had, Jehovah blessed the Egyptian's house on account of Joseph; and the blessing of Jehovah was upon all that he had, in the house and in the field.
39:6	波提乏將一切所有的都交在約瑟的手中，除了自己所吃的飯，別的事一概不管。約瑟原來形貌俊美。 And he left all that he had in Joseph's charge; and with him there, he was not concerned about anything except the food that he ate. And Joseph was handsome in form and handsome in appearance.
39:7	這事以後，約瑟主人的妻子以目送情給約瑟，說，你與我同寢罷。 Now after these things his master's wife cast her eyes upon Joseph and said, Lie with me.
39:8	約瑟不肯，對他主人的妻子說，看哪，有我在，家裏一切事務我主人都不管；他把所有的都交在我手裏。 But he refused and said to his master's wife, Behold, with me here, my master is not concerned about anything in the house, and he has put everything he has in my charge.
39:9	在這家裏沒有比我大的；並且他沒有留下一樣不交給我，隻留下了你，因為你是他的妻子。我怎能作這大惡，得罪神呢？ There is no one greater in this house than I, and he has withheld nothing from me except you, because you are his wife. How then can I do this great evil, and sin against God?
39:10	後來她天天對約瑟說，約瑟卻不聽從，不與她同寢，也不和她在一處。 And although she spoke to Joseph day after day, he would not listen to her to lie beside her or be with her.
39:11	有一天，約瑟進屋裏去辦事，家中的人沒有一個在屋裏， And one such day he went into the house to do his work, and none of the men of the house were there in the house.
39:12	婦人就拉住他的衣裳，說，你與我同寢罷。約瑟把衣裳撇在婦人手裏，跑到外麵去了。 And she grabbed him by his garment, saying, Lie with me! But he left his garment in her hand, and fled and went outside.
39:13	婦人看見約瑟把衣裳撇在她手裏跑出去了， And when she saw that he had left his garment in her hand and had fled outside,
39:14	就叫了家裏的人來，對他們說，你們看，他帶了一個希伯來人到我們這裏，要戲弄我們。他到我這裏來，要與我同寢，我就大聲喊叫。 She called to the men of her house and spoke to them, saying, See, he has brought in a Hebrew man to us to mock us. He came in to me to lie with me, and I called out with a loud voice;
39:15	他聽見我放聲喊起來，就把衣裳撇在我身邊，跑到外麵去了。 And when he heard that I lifted up my voice and called out, he left his garment beside me, and fled and went outside.
39:16	婦人把約瑟的衣裳放在自己身邊，等著他主人回家， And she placed his garment beside her until his master came home.
39:17	就對他如此說：你所帶到我們這裏的那希伯來仆人，進來要戲弄我， And she spoke to him with these words, saying, The Hebrew servant, whom you have brought to us, came in to me to mock me.
39:18	我放聲喊起來，他就把衣裳撇在我身邊，跑出去了。 And when I lifted up my voice and called out, he left his garment beside me and fled outside.
39:19	約瑟的主人聽見他妻子對他所說的話，說，你的仆人如此待我，他就發怒， And when his master heard the words of his wife that she had spoken to him, saying, This is the way your servant treated me; his anger burned.
39:20	把約瑟拿住，下在監裏，就是王的囚犯被囚的地方。但是當約瑟在監裏的時候， And Joseph's master took him and put him into the prison, the place where the king's prisoners were confined. But while he was there in the prison,
39:21	耶和華與約瑟同在，向他施恩慈，使他在獄長眼前蒙恩。 Jehovah was with Joseph; and He extended kindness to him and gave him favor in the sight of the chief jailer.
39:22	獄長把監裏所有的囚犯都交在約瑟手下；他們在那裏無論作什麼事，都是經他的手作的。 And the chief jailer put in Joseph's charge all the prisoners who were in the prison; and whatever was done there, he was the one to do it.
39:23	凡在約瑟手下的事，獄長一概不察，因為耶和華與約瑟同在；耶和華使他所作的盡都順利。 The chief jailer did not supervise anything that was in his charge, because Jehovah was with him; and whatever he did, Jehovah caused it to prosper.
