| 1 | And Joseph was brought into Egypt, and Putiphar an eunuch of Pharao, chief captain of the army, an Egyptian, bought him of the Ismaelites, by whom he was brought. | Ἰωσὴφ δὲ κατήχθη εἰς Αἴγυπτον· καὶ ἐκτήσατο αὐτὸν Πετεφρὴς ὁ εὐνοῦχος Φαραὼ, ὁ ἀρχιμάγειρος, ἀνὴρ Αἰγύπτιος, ἐκ χειρῶν τῶν Ἰσμαηλιτῶν, οἳ κατήγαγον αὐτὸν ἐκεῖ. |
| 2 | And the Lord was with him, and he was a prosperous man in all things: and he dwelt in his master’s house, | Καὶ ἦν Κύριος μετὰ Ἰωσήφ· καὶ ἦν ἀνὴρ ἐπιτυγχάνων· καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ παρὰ τῷ κυρίῳ αὐτοῦ τῷ Αἰγυπτίῳ. |
| 3 | Who knew very well that the Lord was with him, and made all that he did to prosper in his hand. | Ἤδει δὲ ὁ κύριος αὐτοῦ, ὅτι ὁ Κύριος ἦν μετʼ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ὅσα ἐὰν ποιῇ, Κύριος εὐοδοῖ ἐν ταῖς χερσὶν αὐτοῦ. |
| 4 | And Joseph found favour in the sight of his master, and ministered to him: and being set over all by him, he governed the house committed to him, and all things that were delivered to him: | Καὶ εὗρεν Ἰωσὴφ χάριν ἐναντίον τοῦ κυρίου αὐτοῦ, καὶ εὐηρέστησεν αὐτῷ. Καὶ κατέστησε αὐτὸν ἐπὶ τοῦ οἴκου αὐτοῦ· καὶ πάντα ὅσα ἦν αὐτῷ, ἔδωκε διὰ χειρὸς Ἰωσήφ. |
| 5 | And the Lord blessed the house of the Egyptian for Joseph’s sake, and multiplied all his substance, both at home, and in the fields. | Ἐγένετο δὲ μετὰ τὸ καταστῆναι αὐτὸν ἐπὶ τοῦ οἴκου αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐπὶ πάντα ὅσα ἦν αὐτῷ, καὶ ηὐλόγησε Κύριος τὸν οἶκον τοῦ Αἰγυπτίου διὰ Ἰωσήφ· καὶ ἐγενήθη εὐλογία Κυρίου ἐν πᾶσι τοῖς ὑπάρχουσιν αὐτῷ ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ, καὶ ἐν τῷ ἀγρῷ αὐτοῦ. |
| 6 | Neither knew he any other thing, but the bread which he ate. And Joseph was of a beautiful countenance, and comely to behold. | Καὶ ἐπέτρεψε πάντα ὅσα ἦν αὐτῷ, εἰς χεῖρας Ἰωσήφ· καὶ οὐκ ᾔδει τῶν καθʼ αὑτὸν οὐδὲν, πλὴν τοῦ ἄρτου, οὗ ἤσθιεν αὐτός. Καὶ ἦν Ἰωσὴφ καλὸς τῷ εἴδει, καὶ ὡραῖος τῇ ὄψει σφόδρα. |
| 7 | And after many days his mistress cast her eyes on Joseph, and said: Lie with me. | Καὶ ἐγένετο μετὰ τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα, καὶ ἐπέβαλεν ἡ γυνὴ τοῦ κυρίου αὐτοῦ τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτῆς ἐπὶ Ἰωσήφ· καὶ εἶπεν, κοιμήθητι μετʼ ἐμοῦ. |
| 8 | But he, in no wise consenting to that wicked act, said to her: Behold, my master hath delivered all things to me, and knoweth not what he hath in his own house: | Ὁ δὲ οὐκ ἤθελεν· εἶπε δὲ τῇ γυναικὶ τοῦ κυρίου αὐτοῦ, εἰ ὁ κύριός μου οὐ γινώσκει διʼ ἐμὲ οὐδὲν ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ αὐτοῦ, καὶ πάντα ὅσα ἐστὶν αὐτῷ ἔδωκεν εἰς τὰς χεῖράς μου, |
| 9 | Neither is there any thing which is not in my power, or that he hath not delivered to me, but thee, who art his wife: how then can I do this wicked thing, and sin against my God? | καὶ οὐχ ὑπερέχει ἐν τῇ οἰκίᾳ ταύτῆ οὐθὲν ἐμοῦ, οὐδὲ ὑπεξῄρηται ἀπʼ ἐμοῦ οὐδὲν, πλὴν σοῦ, διὰ τὸ σὲ γυναῖκα αὐτοῦ εἶναι, καὶ πῶς ποιήσω τὸ ῥῆμα τὸ πονηρὸν τοῦτο, καὶ ἁμαρτήσομαι ἐναντίον τοῦ Θεοῦ; |
| 10 | With such words as these day by day, both the woman was importunate with the young man, and he refused the adultery. | Ἡνίκα δὲ ἐλάλει τῷ Ἰωσὴφ ἡμέραν ἐξ ἡμέρας, καὶ οὐχ ὑπήκουεν αὐτῇ καθεύδειν μετʼ αὐτῆς, τοῦ συγγενέσθαι αὐτῇ. |
| 11 | Now it happened on a certain day, that Joseph went into the house, and was doing some business without any, man with him: | Ἐγένετο δὲ τοιαύτη τις ἡμέρα, καὶ εἰσῆλθεν Ἰωσὴφ εἰς τὴν οἰκίαν ποιεῖν τὰ ἔργα αὐτοῦ, καὶ οὐθεὶς ἦν τῶν ἐν τῇ οἰκίᾳ ἔσω. |
| 12 | And she catching the skirt of his garment, said: Lie with me. But he leaving the garment in her hand, fled, and went out. | Καὶ ἐπεσπάσατο αὐτὸν τῶν ἱματίων, λέγουσα, κοιμήθητι μετʼ ἐμοῦ· καὶ καταλιπὼν τὰ ἱμάτια αὐτοῦ ἐν ταῖς χερσὶν αὐτῆς ἔφυγε, καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ἔξω. |
| 13 | And when the woman saw the garment in her hands, and herself disregarded, | Καὶ ἐγένετο ὡς εἶδεν ὅτι καταλιπὼν τὰ ἱμάτια αὐτοῦ ἐν ταῖς χερσὶν αὐτῆς ἔφυγε, καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ἔξω, |
| 14 | She called to her the men of her house, and said to them: See, he hath brought in a Hebrew, to abuse us: he came in to me, to lie with me: and when I cried out, | καὶ ἐκάλεσε τοὺς ὄντας ἐν τῇ οἰκίᾳ, καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς, λέγουσα, ἴδετε, εἰσήγαγε ἡμῖν παῖδα Ἐβραῖον, ἐμπαίζειν ἡμῖν· εἰσῆλθε πρός με, λέγων, κοιμήθητι μετʼ ἐμοῦ· καὶ ἐβόησα φωνῇ μεγάλῃ. |
| 15 | And he heard my voice, he left the garment that I held, and got him out. | Ἐν δὲ τῷ ἀκοῦσαι αὐτὸν, ὅτι ὕψωσα τὴν φωνήν μου καὶ ἐβόησα, καταλιπὼν τὰ ἱμάτια αὐτοῦ παρʼ ἐμοὶ ἔφυγε, καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ἔξω. |
| 16 | For a proof therefore of her fidelity, she kept the garment, and shewed it to her husband when he returned home: | Καὶ καταλιμπάνει τὰ ἱμάτια παρʼ ἑαυτῇ, ἕως ἦλθεν ὁ κύριος εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ. |
| 17 | And said: The Hebrew servant, whom thou hast brought, came to me to abuse me. | Καὶ ἐλάλησεν αὐτῷ κατὰ τὰ ῥήματα ταῦτα, λέγουσα, εἰσῆλθε πρός με ὁ παῖς ὁ Ἑβραῖος, ὃν εἰσήγαγες πρὸς ἡμᾶς, ἐμπαῖξαί μοι· καὶ εἶπέ μοι, κοιμηθήσομαι μετὰ σοῦ. |
| 18 | And when he heard me cry, he left the garment which I held, and fled out. | Ὡς δὲ ἤκοῦσεν, ὅτι ὕψωσα τὴν φωνήν μου καὶ ἐβόησα, καταλιπὼν τὰ ἱμάτια αὐτοῦ παρʼ ἐμοὶ ἔφυγε, καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ἔξω. |
| 19 | His master hearing these things, and giving too much credit to his wife’s words, was very angry. | Ἐγένετο δὲ, ὡς ἤκουσεν ὁ κύριος τὰ ῥήματα τῆς γυναικὸς αὐτοῦ, ὅσα ἐλάλησε πρὸς αὐτὸν, λέγουσα, οὕτως ἐποίησέ μοι ὁ παῖς σου, καὶ ἐθυμώθη ὀργῇ. |
| 20 | And cast Joseph into the prison, where the king’s prisoners were kept, and he was there shut up. | Καὶ λαβὼν ὁ κύριος Ἰωσὴφ, ἐνέβαλε αὐτὸν εἰς τὸ ὀχύρωμα, εἰς τὸν τόπον ἐν ᾧ οἱ δεσμῶται τοῦ βασιλέως κατέχονται ἐκεῖ ἐν τῷ ὀχυρώματι. |
| 21 | But the Lord was with Joseph and having mercy upon him gave him favour in the sight of the chief keeper of the prison: | Καὶ ἦν Κύριος μετὰ Ἰωσὴφ, καὶ κατέχεεν αὐτοῦ ἔλεος· καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτῷ χάριν ἐναντίον τοῦ ἀρχιδεσμοφύλακος. |
| 22 | Who delivered into his hand all the prisoners that were kept in custody: and whatsoever was done was under him. | Καὶ ἔδωκεν ὁ ἀρχιδεσμοφύλαξ τὸ δεσμωτήριον διὰ χειρὸς Ἰωσὴφ, καὶ πάντας τοὺς ἀπηγμένους ὅσοι ἐν τῷ δεσμωτηρίῳ, καὶ πάντα ὅσα ποιοῦσιν ἐκεῖ, αὐτὸς ἦν ποιῶν. |
| 23 | Neither did he himself know any thing, having committed all things to him: for the Lord was with him, and made all that he did to prosper. | Οὐκ ἦν ὁ ἀρχιδεσμοφύλαξ τοῦ δεσμωτηρίου γινώσκον διʼ αὐτὸν οὐθέν· πάντα γὰρ ἦν διὰ χειρὸς Ἰωσὴφ, διὰ τὸ τὸν Κύριον μετʼ αὐτοῦ εἶναι· καὶ ὅσα αὐτὸς ἐποίει, ὁ Κύριος εὐώδο ἐν ταῖς χερσὶν αὐτοῦ. |
