1 Joseph had been taken to Egypt. Potiphar, one of Pharaoh's Egyptian officials and captain of the guard, bought him from the Ishmaelites who had taken him there.

2 The LORD was with Joseph, so he became a successful man. He worked in the house of his Egyptian master.

3 Joseph's master saw that the LORD was with him and that the LORD made everything he did successful.

4 Potiphar liked Joseph so much that he made him his trusted servant. He put him in charge of his household and everything he owned.

5 From that time on the LORD blessed the Egyptian's household because of Joseph. Therefore, the LORD's blessing was on everything Potiphar owned in his house and in his fields.
