Genesis 39

KING JAMES BIBLE	BIBBIA MARTINI
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 Giuseppe adunque fu condotto in Egitto, e lo comperò Putiphar Egiziano eunuco di Faraone, capitano dell'esercito degl'Ismaeliti, che ve l'aveano condotto.
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 era con lui, e gli riusciva bene tutto quel che faceva: e abitava nella casa del suo padrone,
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 Il quale benissimo conoscea, che era con lui il Signore, e conduceva a buon fine tutto quello che intraprendeva.
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 E Giuseppe trovò grazia dinanzi al suo padrone, e lo serviva, ed essendogli stata data da lui la soprintendenza di tutte le cose, governava la casa a sé affidata, e tutti i beni rimessi nelle sue mani.
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 il Signore benedisse la casa dell'Egiziano per amor di Giuseppe, e moltiplicò tutte le facoltà di lui tanto in casa, come alla campagna,
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 non avea altro pensiero, che di mettersi a tavola a mangiare. Or Giuseppe era di volto avvenente, e di graziosa presenza.
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 Passato adunque assai tempo, la padrona fissò i suoi occhi sopra Giuseppe, e disse: Dormi 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 Il quale non acconsentendo all'opera indegna, le disse: Tu vedi come il mio padrone avendo rimessa ogni cosa nelle mie mani, non sa quel che si abbia in sua casa:
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 E veruna cosa non è, ch'ei non abbia a me affidata, e di cui non m'abbia fatto padrone, fuori di te, che sei sua moglie: come adunque poss'io fare questo male, e peccare contro il mio 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 Cogli stessi discorsi ogni dì e la donna inquietava il giovinetto, ed egli ricusava di peccare.
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 Ma avvenne, che un dì Giuseppe entrò in casa, e si pose a far qualche cosa non avendo alcun con sé:
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 E quella, preso l'orlo del suo mantello, gli disse: Vieni con me. Ma egli lasciato in man di lei il mantello, si fuggì fuori di casa.
13 And it came to pass, when she saw that he had left his garment in her hand, and was fled forth,	13 E la donna veggendo in sue mani il mantello, e sé disprezzata:
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 a sé la gente di casa, e disse loro: Ecco che egli ha condotto qua quest'uomo Ebreo, perché ci facesse vergogna. Egli è venuto a trovarmi per peccare con me: e avendo io alzato le grida,
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 Egli all'udir la mia voce ha lasciato il mantello, per cui io lo teneva, e si è fuggito.
16 And she laid up his garment by her, until his lord came home.	16 In prova adunque della serbata fede fece veder al marito tornato a casa il mantello ritenuto,
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 E disse: È venuto a trovarmi quel servo Ebreo, che tu hai condotto a svergognarmi:
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 Il quale, sentito come io alzava le grida, ha lasciato il mantello, che io teneva, ed è scappato.
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 Tali cose avendo udite il padrone troppo facile a credere alle parole della moglie, ne concepì grande sdegno:
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 fece metter Giuseppe nella prigione, in cui erano tenuti i rei di delitto commesso contro del re, ed egli fu quivi rinchiuso.
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 Ma il Signore fu con Giuseppe, e avendo compassione di lui fece sì, ch'ei trovò grazia dinanzi al provveditore della prigione.
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 Il quale diede a lui potestà sopra tutti i prigionieri, che erano in quella carcere: e tutto quello che si facea, era fatto per suo ordine.
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 E quegli non pensava a nulla, avendo dato di ogni cosa l'arbitrio a Giuseppe: perocché il Signore era con lui, e conduceva a buon fine tutto quel ch'ei faceva.
