New King James Version NKJV
New International Version NIV
2 The Lord was with Joseph, and he was a successful man; and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian.
2
The LORD was with Joseph so that he prospered, and he lived in the house of his Egyptian master.
3 And his master saw that the Lord was with him and that the Lord made all he did to prosper in his hand.
3
When his master saw that the LORD was with him and that the LORD gave him success in everything he did,
4 So Joseph found favor in his sight, and served him. Then he made him overseer of his house, and all that he had he put under his authority.
4
Joseph found favor in his eyes and became his attendant. Potiphar put him in charge of his household, and he entrusted to his care everything he owned.
5 So it was, from the time that he had made him overseer of his house and all that he had, that the Lord blessed the Egyptian's house for Joseph's sake; and the blessing of the Lord was on all that he had in the house and in the field.
5
From the time he put him in charge of his household and of all that he owned, the LORD blessed the household of the Egyptian because of Joseph. The blessing of the LORD was on everything Potiphar had, both in the house and in the field.
6 Thus he left all that he had in Joseph's hand, and he did not know what he had except for the bread which he ate. Now Joseph was handsome in form and appearance.
6
So Potiphar left everything he had in Joseph’s care; with Joseph in charge, he did not concern himself with anything except the food he ate. Now Joseph was well-built and handsome,
7 And it came to pass after these things that his master's wife cast longing eyes on Joseph, and she said, "Lie with me."
7
and after a while his master’s wife took notice of Joseph and said, “Come to bed with me!”
8 But he refused and said to his master's wife, "Look, my master does not know what is with me in the house, and he has committed all that he has to my hand.
8
But he refused. “With me in charge,” he told her, “my master does not concern himself with anything in the house; everything he owns he has entrusted to my care.
9 There is no one greater in this house than I, nor has he kept back anything from me but you, because you are his wife. How then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?"
9
No one is greater in this house than I am. My master has withheld nothing from me except you, because you are his wife. How then could I do such a wicked thing and sin against God?”
10 So it was, as she spoke to Joseph day by day, that he did not heed her, to lie with her or to be with her.
10
And though she spoke to Joseph day after day, he refused to go to bed with her or even be with her.
11 But it happened about this time, when Joseph went into the house to do his work, and none of the men of the house was inside,
11
One day he went into the house to attend to his duties, and none of the household servants was inside.
12 that she caught him by his garment, saying, "Lie with me." But he left his garment in her hand, and fled and ran outside.
12
She caught him by his cloak and said, “Come to bed with me!” But he left his cloak in her hand and ran out of the house.
