¹And Joseph hath been brought down to Egypt, and Potiphar, a eunuch of Pharaoh, head of the executioners, an Egyptian man, buyeth him out of the hands of the Ishmaelites who have brought him thither.

¹Ja Joosep viidi alla Egiptusesse; ja egiptlane Pootifar, vaarao hoovkondlane, ihukaitsepealik, ostis tema ismaeliitidelt, kes olid ta sinna toonud.

²And Jehovah is with Joseph, and he is a prosperous man, and he is in the house of his lord the Egyptian,

²Aga Issand oli Joosepiga ja tema oli mees, kellel kõik asjad korda läksid; ja ta elas oma isanda, egiptlase kojas.

³and his lord seeth that Jehovah is with him, and all that he is doing Jehovah is causing to prosper in his hand,

³Ka tema isand nägi, et Issand oli temaga ja et kõik, mis ta tegi, laskis Issand tema käes korda minna.

⁴and Joseph findeth grace in his eyes and serveth him, and he appointeth him over his house, and all that he hath he hath given into his hand.

⁴Ja Joosep leidis armu tema silmis ning teenis teda; ja ta pani tema oma koja üle, ja kõik, mis tal oli, ta andis tema kätte.

⁵And it cometh to pass from the time that he hath appointed him over his house, and over all that he hath, that Jehovah blesseth the house of the Egyptian for Joseph`s sake, and the blessing of Jehovah is on all that he hath, in the house, and in the field;

⁵Ja sellest ajast peale, kui ta oli pannud tema oma koja üle, ja kõige üle, mis tal oli, Issand õnnistas egiptlase koda Joosepi pärast, ja Issanda õnnistus oli kõigega, mis tal oli kojas ja väljal.

⁶and he leaveth all that he hath in the hand of Joseph, and he hath not known anything that he hath, except the bread which he is eating. And Joseph is of a fair form, and of a fair appearance.

⁶Ja ta jättis kõik, mis tal oli, Joosepi kätte ega teadnud millestki, kui ainult leivast, mida ta sõi. Joosep oli jumekas ja ilusa välimusega.

⁷And it cometh to pass after these things, that his lord`s wife lifteth up her eyes unto Joseph, and saith, `Lie with me;`

⁷Nende asjaolude tõttu sündis, et ta isanda naine Joosepile silma heitis ja ütles: 'Maga mu juures!'

⁸and he refuseth, and saith unto his lord`s wife, `Lo, my lord hath not known what [is] with me in the house, and all that he hath he hath given into my hand;

⁸Aga ta keeldus ja ütles oma isanda naisele: 'Vaata, mu isand ise ei tea, mis kojas on, ja kõik, mis tal on, ta on andnud minu kätte.

⁹none is greater in this house than I, and he hath not withheld from me anything, except thee, because thou [art] his wife; and how shall I do this great evil? — then have I sinned against God.`

⁹Ei ole ükski selles kojas suurem minust ja tema ei ole mulle keelanud midagi muud kui sind, sest sa oled tema naine. Kuidas tohiksin siis teha seda suurt kurja ja pattu oma Jumala vastu?'

¹⁰And it cometh to pass at her speaking unto Joseph day [by] day, that he hath not hearkened unto her, to lie near her, to be with her;

¹⁰Ja kuigi naine rääkis Joosepile iga päev, ei kuulanud see teda, et ta magaks ta kõrval ja oleks ta juures.

¹¹and it cometh to pass about this day, that he goeth into the house to do his work, and there is none of the men of the house there in the house,

¹¹Aga ühel päeval, kui Joosep tuli koju oma toimetusi tegema ja ühtegi inimest pererahvast ei olnud kodus,

¹²and she catcheth him by his garment, saying, `Lie with me;` and he leaveth his garment in her hand, and fleeth, and goeth without.

¹²haaras ta kinni tema kuuest, öeldes: 'Maga mu juures!' Aga Joosep jättis oma kuue tema kätte, põgenes ja läks õue.

¹³And it cometh to pass when she seeth that he hath left his garment in her hand, and fleeth without,

¹³Ja kui naine nägi, et ta oma kuue oli jätnud tema kätte ja oli põgenenud õue,

¹⁴that she calleth for the men of her house, and speaketh to them, saying, `See, he hath brought in to us a man, a Hebrew, to play with us; he hath come in unto me, to lie with me, and I call with a loud voice,

¹⁴siis ta hüüdis pererahvast ja rääkis neile, öeldes: 'Näete, ta on toonud meie juurde heebrea mehe meid ära naerma! Ta tuli mu juurde, et minuga magada, aga ma hüüdsin suure häälega,

¹⁵and it cometh to pass, when he heareth that I have lifted up my voice and call, that he leaveth his garment near me, and fleeth, and goeth without.`

¹⁵ja kui ta kuulis, et ma häält tõstsin ja hüüdsin, siis ta jättis oma kuue mu juurde, põgenes ja läks õue.'

¹⁶And she placeth his garment near her, until the coming in of his lord unto his house.

¹⁶Ja ta pani tema kuue enese kõrvale seniks, kui ta isand koju tuli.

¹⁷And she speaketh unto him according to these words, saying, `The Hebrew servant whom thou hast brought unto us, hath come in unto me to play with me;

¹⁷Ja ta rääkis temale needsamad sõnad, öeldes: 'Heebrea sulane, kelle sa oled meie juurde toonud, tuli mu juurde mind ära naerma.

¹⁸and it cometh to pass, when I lift my voice and call, that he leaveth his garment near me, and fleeth without.`

¹⁸Aga kui ma häält tõstsin ja hüüdsin, siis ta jättis oma kuue mu juurde ja põgenes õue.'

¹⁹And it cometh to pass when his lord heareth the words of his wife, which she hath spoken unto him, saying, `According to these things hath thy servant done to me,` that his anger burneth;

¹⁹Ja kui ta isand kuulis oma naise jutustust, mida see temale rääkis, öeldes: 'Nõndaviisi on su sulane minuga teinud', siis ta viha süttis põlema.

²⁰and Joseph`s lord taketh him, and putteth him unto the round-house, a place where the king`s prisoners [are] bound; and he is there in the round-house.

²⁰Ja Joosepi isand võttis tema ja pani vangihoonesse, sinna paika, kus kuninga vange kinni peeti. Siis oli ta seal vangihoones.

²¹And Jehovah is with Joseph, and stretcheth out kindness unto him, and putteth his grace in the eyes of the chief of the round-house;

²¹Aga Issand oli Joosepiga ja pööras tema poole oma helduse ning tegi, et ta sai vangihoone ülema soosikuks.

²²and the chief of the round-house giveth into the hand of Joseph all the prisoners who [are] in the round-house, and of all that they are doing there, he hath been doer;

²²Ja vangihoone ülem andis Joosepi kätte kõik vangid, kes olid vangihoones, ja kõik, mis seal pidi tehtama, tegi tema.

²³the chief of the round-house seeth not anything under his hand, because Jehovah [is] with him, and that which he is doing Jehovah is causing to prosper.

²³Vangihoone ülem ei vaadanud millegi järele, mis oli tema käes, sest Issand oli temaga ja mis ta tegi, Issand laskis korda minna.
