Genesis 39

KING JAMES BIBLE	DIODATI
1 And Joseph was brought down to Egypt; and Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh, captain of the guard, an Egyptian, bought him of the hands of the Ishmeelites, which had brought him down thither.	1 ORA, essendo stato Giuseppe menato in Egitto, Potifarre, Eunuco di Faraone, Capitan delle guardie, uomo Egizio, lo comperò da quegl’Ismaeliti, che l’aveano menato.
2 And the LORD was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man; and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian.	2 E il Signore fu con Giuseppe; e fu uomo che andava prosperando; e stette in casa del suo signore Egizio.
3 And his master saw that the LORD was with him, and that the LORD made all that he did to prosper in his hand.	3 E il suo signore vide che il Signore era con lui, e che il Signore gli prosperava nelle mani tutto ciò ch’egli faceva.
4 And Joseph found grace in his sight, and he served him: and he made him overseer over his house, and all that he had he put into his hand.	4 Laonde Giuseppe venne in grazia di esso, e gli serviva; ed egli lo costituì sopra tutta la sua casa, e gli diede in mano tutto ciò ch’egli avea.
5 And it came to pass from the time that he had made him overseer in his house, and over all that he had, that the LORD blessed the Egyptian's house for Joseph's sake; and the blessing of the LORD was upon all that he had in the house, and in the field.	5 E da che quell’Egizio l’ebbe costituito sopra la sua casa, e sopra tutto ciò ch’egli avea, il Signore benedisse la casa di esso, per amor di Giuseppe; e la benedizione del Signore fu sopra tutto ciò ch’egli avea in casa, e ne’ campi.
6 And he left all that he had in Joseph's hand; and he knew not ought he had, save the bread which he did eat. And Joseph was a goodly person, and well favoured.	6 Ed egli rimise nelle mani di Giuseppe tutto ciò ch’egli avea, e non tenea ragion con lui di cosa alcuna, salvo del suo mangiare. Or Giuseppe era formoso, e di bell’aspetto
7 And it came to pass after these things, that his master's wife cast her eyes upon Joseph; and she said, Lie with me.	7 Ed avvenne, dopo queste cose, che la moglie del signore di Giuseppe gli pose l’occhio addosso, e gli disse: Giaciti meco.
8 But he refused, and said unto his master's wife, Behold, my master wotteth not what is with me in the house, and he hath committed all that he hath to my hand;	8 Ma egli il ricusò, e disse alla moglie del suo signore: Ecco, il mio signore non tiene ragione meco di cosa alcuna che sia in casa, e mi ha dato in mano tutto ciò ch’egli ha.
9 There is none greater in this house than I; neither hath he kept back any thing from me but thee, because thou art his wife: how then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?	9 Egli stesso non è più grande di me in questa casa, e non mi ha divietato null’altro che te; perciocchè tu sei sua moglie; come dunque farei questo gran male, e peccherei contro a Dio?
10 And it came to pass, as she spake to Joseph day by day, that he hearkened not unto her, to lie by her, or to be with her.	10 E, benchè ella gliene parlasse ogni giorno, non però le acconsentì di giacerlesi allato, per esser con lei.
11 And it came to pass about this time, that Joseph went into the house to do his business; and there was none of the men of the house there within.	11 Or avvenne un giorno, che, essendo egli entrato in casa per far sue faccende, e non essendovi alcuno della gente di casa ivi in casa;
12 And she caught him by his garment, saying, Lie with me: and he left his garment in her hand, and fled, and got him out.	12 ella, presolo per lo vestimento, gli disse: Giaciti meco. Ma egli, lasciatole il suo vestimento in mano, se ne fuggì, e se ne uscì fuori
13 And it came to pass, when she saw that he had left his garment in her hand, and was fled forth,	13 E, quando ella vide ch’egli le avea lasciato il suo vestimento in mano, e che se ne era fuggito fuori;
14 That she called unto the men of her house, and spake unto them, saying, See, he hath brought in an Hebrew unto us to mock us; he came in unto me to lie with me, and I cried with a loud voice:	14 chiamò la gente di casa sua, e disse loro: Vedete, egli ci ha menato in casa un uomo Ebreo per ischernirci; esso venne a me per giacersi meco; ma io gridai ad alta voce.
15 And it came to pass, when he heard that I lifted up my voice and cried, that he left his garment with me, and fled, and got him out.	15 E come egli udì che io avea alzata la voce, e gridava, lasciò il suo vestimento appresso a me, e se ne fuggì, e se ne uscì fuori.
16 And she laid up his garment by her, until his lord came home.	16 Ed ella ripose il vestimento di Giuseppe appo sè, finchè il signore di esso fosse tornato in casa sua.
17 And she spake unto him according to these words, saying, The Hebrew servant, which thou hast brought unto us, came in unto me to mock me:	17 Poi gli parlò in questa maniera: Quel servo Ebreo che tu ci menasti venne a me per ischernirmi.
18 And it came to pass, as I lifted up my voice and cried, that he left his garment with me, and fled out.	18 Ma, come io ebbi alzata la voce, ed ebbi gridato, egli lasciò il suo vestimento appresso a me, e se ne fuggì fuori
19 And it came to pass, when his master heard the words of his wife, which she spake unto him, saying, After this manner did thy servant to me; that his wrath was kindled.	19 E quando il signore di Giuseppe ebbe intese le parole che sua moglie gli diceva, cioè: Il tuo servo mi ha fatte cotali cose, si accese nell’ira.
20 And Joseph's master took him, and put him into the prison, a place where the king's prisoners were bound: and he was there in the prison.	20 E il signore di Giuseppe lo prese, e lo mise nel Torrione, ch’era il luogo dove i prigioni del re erano incarcerati; ed egli fu ivi nel Torrione.
21 But the LORD was with Joseph, and shewed him mercy, and gave him favour in the sight of the keeper of the prison.	21 E il Signore fu con Giuseppe, e spiegò la sua benignità inverso lui, e lo rendette grazioso al carceriere.
22 And the keeper of the prison committed to Joseph's hand all the prisoners that were in the prison; and whatsoever they did there, he was the doer of it.	22 E il carceriere diede in mano a Giuseppe tutti i prigioni ch’erano nel Torrione; ed egli faceva tutto ciò che vi si avea a fare.
23 The keeper of the prison looked not to any thing that was under his hand; because the LORD was with him, and that which he did, the LORD made it to prosper.	23 Il carceriere non riguardava a cosa alcuna ch’egli avesse nelle mani; perciocchè il Signore era con lui; e il Signore prosperava tutto quello ch’egli faceva
