Genesis 39

DOUAI-RHEIMS	LXX
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.	1 ιωσηφ δε κατηχθη εις αιγυπτον και εκτησατο αυτον πετεφρης ο ευνουχος φαραω αρχιμαγειρος ανηρ αιγυπτιος εκ χειρος ισμαηλιτων οι κατηγαγον αυτον εκει
2 And the Lord was with him, and he was a prosperous man in all things: and he dwelt in his master's house,	2 και ην κυριος μετα ιωσηφ και ην ανηρ επιτυγχανων και εγενετο εν τω οικω παρα τω κυριω τω αιγυπτιω
3 Who knew very well that the Lord was with him, and made all that he did to prosper in his hand.	3 ηδει δε ο κυριος αυτου οτι κυριος μετ' αυτου και οσα αν ποιη κυριος ευοδοι εν ταις χερσιν αυτου
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:	4 και ευρεν ιωσηφ χαριν εναντιον του κυριου αυτου ευηρεστει δε αυτω και κατεστησεν αυτον επι του οικου αυτου και παντα οσα ην αυτω εδωκεν δια χειρος ιωσηφ
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.	5 εγενετο δε μετα το κατασταθηναι αυτον επι του οικου αυτου και επι παντα οσα ην αυτω και ηυλογησεν κυριος τον οικον του αιγυπτιου δια ιωσηφ και εγενηθη ευλογια κυριου εν πασιν τοις υπαρχουσιν αυτω εν τω οικω και εν τω αγρω

7 h And after many days his mistress 'cast her eyes on Joseph, and said: Lie with me.	7 και εγενετο μετα τα ρηματα ταυτα και επεβαλεν η γυνη του κυριου αυτου τους οφθαλμους αυτης επι ιωσηφ και ειπεν κοιμηθητι μετ' εμου
8 Neither knew he any other thing, but the bread which he ate. And Joseph was of a beautiful countenance, and comely to behold.	8 ο δε ουκ ηθελεν ειπεν δε τη γυναικι του κυριου αυτου ει ο κυριος μου ου γινωσκει δι' εμε ουδεν εν τω οικω αυτου και παντα οσα εστιν αυτω εδωκεν εις τας χειρας μου
	9 και ουχ υπερεχει εν τη οικια ταυτη ουθεν εμου ουδε υπεξηρηται απ' εμου ουδεν πλην σου δια το σε γυναικα αυτου ειναι και πως ποιησω το ρημα το πονηρον τουτο και αμαρτησομαι εναντιον του θεου
10 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:	10 ηνικα δε ελαλει τω ιωσηφ ημεραν εξ ημερας και ουχ υπηκουσεν αυτη καθευδειν μετ' αυτης του συγγενεσθαι αυτη
11 Neither is there any thing which is hot 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 I sin against my God?	11 εγενετο δε τοιαυτη τις ημερα εισηλθεν ιωσηφ εις την οικιαν ποιειν τα εργα αυτου και ουθεις ην των εν τη οικια εσω
12 With such words as these day by day, both the woman was importunate with the young man, and he refused the adultery.	12 και επεσπασατο αυτον των ιματιων λεγουσα κοιμηθητι μετ' εμου και καταλιπων τα ιματια αυτου εν ταις χερσιν αυτης εφυγεν και εξηλθεν εξω
13 Now it happened on it certain day, that Joseph went into the house, and was doing some business without any, man with him:	13 και εγενετο ως ειδεν οτι κατελιπεν τα ιματια αυτου εν ταις χερσιν αυτης και εφυγεν και εξηλθεν εξω
14 And she catching the skirt of his garment, said: Lie with me. But he leaving the garment in her hand, fled, and went out.	14 και εκαλεσεν τους οντας εν τη οικια και ειπεν αυτοις λεγουσα ιδετε εισηγαγεν ημιν παιδα εβραιον εμπαιζειν ημιν εισηλθεν προς με λεγων κοιμηθητι μετ' εμου και εβοησα φωνη μεγαλη
15 And when the woman saw the garment in her hands, and herself disregarded,	15 εν δε τω ακουσαι αυτον οτι υψωσα την φωνην μου και εβοησα καταλιπων τα ιματια αυτου παρ' εμοι εφυγεν και εξηλθεν εξω
16 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,	16 και καταλιμπανει τα ιματια παρ' εαυτη εως ηλθεν ο κυριος εις τον οικον αυτου

18 And he heard my voice, he left the garment that I held, and got him out.	18 ως δε ηκουσεν οτι υψωσα την φωνην μου και εβοησα κατελιπεν τα ιματια αυτου παρ' εμοι και εφυγεν και εξηλθεν εξω
	19 εγενετο δε ως ηκουσεν ο κυριος αυτου τα ρηματα της γυναικος αυτου οσα ελαλησεν προς αυτον λεγουσα ουτως εποιησεν μοι ο παις σου και εθυμωθη οργη
20 For a proof therefore of her fidelity, she kept the garment, and shewed it to her husband when he returned home:	20 και λαβων ο κυριος ιωσηφ ενεβαλεν αυτον εις το οχυρωμα εις τον τοπον εν ω οι δεσμωται του βασιλεως κατεχονται εκει εν τω οχυρωματι
21 And said: The Hebrew servant, whom thou best brought, came to me to abuse me.	21 και ην κυριος μετα ιωσηφ και κατεχεεν αυτου ελεος και εδωκεν αυτω χαριν εναντιον του αρχιδεσμοφυλακος
22 And when he heard me cry, he left the garment which I held, and fled out.	22 και εδωκεν ο αρχιδεσμοφυλαξ το δεσμωτηριον δια χειρος ιωσηφ και παντας τους απηγμενους οσοι εν τω δεσμωτηριω και παντα οσα ποιουσιν εκει
23 His master hearing these things, and giving too much credit to his wife's words, was very angry.	23 ουκ ην ο αρχιδεσμοφυλαξ του δεσμωτηριου γινωσκων δι' αυτον ουθεν παντα γαρ ην δια χειρος ιωσηφ δια το τον κυριον μετ' αυτου ειναι και οσα αυτος εποιει κυριος ευωδου εν ταις χερσιν αυτου
24 And cast Joseph into the prison, where the king's prisoners were kept, and he was there shut up.
25 But the Lord was with Joseph and having mercy upon him gave him favour in the sight of the chief keeper of the prison:
