يوسف وزوجة فوطيفار

1 وَأَخَذَ الإِسْمَاعِيلِيُّونَ يُوسُفَ إِلَى مِصْرَ، فَاشْتَرَاهُ مِنْهُمْ مِصْرِيٌّ يُدْعَى فُوطِيفَارَ، كَانَ خَصِيَّ فِرْعَوْنَ وَرَئِيسَ الْحَرَسِ. 2 وَكَانَ الرَّبُّ مَعَ يُوسُفَ، فَأَفْلَحَ فِي أَعْمَالِهِ، وَأَقَامَ فِي بَيْتِ سَيِّدِهِ الْمِصْرِيِّ. 3 وَرَأَى مَوْلاهُ أَنَّ الرَّبَّ مَعَهُ وَأَنَّهُ يُكَلِّلُ كُلَّ مَا تَصْنَعُهُ يَدَاهُ بِالنَّجَاحِ، 4 فَحَظِيَ يُوسُفُ بِرِضَى سَيِّدِهِ، فَجَعَلَهُ وَكِيلاً عَلَى بَيْتِهِ وَوَلَّاهُ عَلَى كُلِّ مَالَهُ. 5 وَبَارَكَ الرَّبُّ بَيْتَ الْمِصْرِيِّ وَكُلَّ مَالَهُ مِنْ مُقْتَنَيَاتٍ فِي الْبَيْتِ وَالْحَقْلِ بِفَضْلِ يُوسُفَ. 6 فَعَهِدَ بِكُلِّ مَالَهُ إِلَى يُوسُفَ. وَلَمْ يَكُنْ يَعْرِفُ مَعَهُ شَيْئاً إِلّا الْخُبْزَ الَّذِي يَأْكُلُهُ. وَكَانَ يُوسُفُ جَمِيلَ الْهَيْئَةِ وَسِيمَ الْوَجْهِ. 7 ثُمَّ لَمْ تَلْبَثْ أَنْ أُغْرِمَتْ بِهِ زَوْجَةُ مَوْلاهُ فَقَالَتْ: «اضْطَجِعْ مَعِي». 8 فَأَبَى وَقَالَ لَهَا: «هُوَذَا سَيِّدِي قَدْ عَهِدَ إِلَيَّ بِكُلِّ مَا يَمْلِكُ فِي هَذَا الْبَيْتِ وَلَمْ يُشْغِلْ نَفْسَهُ بِأَيِّ شَأْنٍ فِيهِ. 9 وَلَيْسَ فِي هَذَا الْبَيْتِ مَنْ هُوَ أَعْظَمُ مِنِّي. وَلَمْ يَمْنَعْ عَنِّي شَيْئاً غَيْرَكِ لأَنَّكِ زَوْجَتُهُ. فَكَيْفَ أَقْتَرِفُ هَذَا الشَّرَّ الْعَظِيمَ وَأُخْطِئُ إِلَى اللهِ؟» 10 وَلَمْ يُذْعِنْ يُوسُفُ لَهَا مَعَ أَنَّهَا كَانَتْ تُلِحُّ عَلَيْهِ يَوْماً بَعْدَ آخَرَ. 11 وَحَدَثَ يَوْماً أَنَّهُ دَخَلَ الْبَيْتَ لِيَقُومَ بِعَمَلِهِ، وَلَمْ يَكُنْ فِي الْمَنْزِلِ أَحَدٌ، 12 فَأَمْسَكَتْهُ مِنْ رِدَائِهِ وَقَالَتْ: «اضْطَجِعْ مَعِي». فَتَرَكَ رِدَاءَهُ بِيَدِهَا وَهَرَبَ خَارِجاً تَارِكاً رِدَاءَهُ بِيَدِهَا 13 وَعِنْدَمَا رَأَتْ أَنَّهُ قَدْ رَفَضَ وَهَرَبَ خَارِجاً تَارِكاً رِدَاءَهُ بِيَدِهَا 14 نَادَتْ أَهْلَ بَيْتِهَا وَقَالَتْ: «انْظُرُوا مَا جَرَى؟ هَذَا الْعِبْرَانِيُّ الَّذِي جَاءَ بِهِ زَوْجِي إِلَى الْبَيْتِ. شَرَعَ يُرَاوِدُنِي عَنْ نَفْسِي. دَخَلَ غُرْفَتِي وَحَاوَلَ اغْتِصَابِي، فَصَرَخْتُ بِأَعْلَى صَوْتِي. 15 وَعِنْدَمَا سَمِعَنِي قَدْ رَفَعْتُ صَوْتِي وَصَرَخْتُ، تَرَكَ رِدَاءَهُ مَعِي وَهَرَبَ خَارِجاً». 16 وَأَلْقَتْ رِدَاءَهُ إِلَى جَانِبِهَا حَتَّى قَدِمَ مَوْلاهُ إِلَى بَيْتِهِ، 17 فَقَصَّتْ عَلَيْهِ مِثْلَ هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ قَائِلَةً: «دَخَلَ الْعَبْدُ الْعِبْرَانِيُّ الَّذِي جِئْتَ بِهِ إِلَيْنَا لِيُرَاوِدَنِي عَنْ نَفْسِي، 18 وَحِينَ رَفَعْتُ صَوْتِي وَصَرَخْتُ، تَرَكَ ثَوْبَهُ بِجَانِبِي وَفَرَّ خَارِجاً». 19 فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ سَيِّدُهُ كَلامَ زَوْجَتِهِ وَمَا اتَّهَمَتْ بِهِ يُوسُفَ احْتَدَمَ غَضَبُهُ، 20 فَقَبَضَ عَلَى يُوسُفَ وَزَجَّهُ فِي السِّجْنِ، حَيْثُ كَانَ أَسْرَى الْمَلِكِ مُعْتَقَلِينَ، فَمَكَثَ هُنَاكَ. 21 وَلَكِنَّ الرَّبَّ كَانَ مَعَ يُوسُفَ، فَأَغْدَقَ عَلَيْهِ رَحْمَتَهُ، فَنَالَ رِضَى رَئِيسِ السِّجْنِ، 22 حَتَّى عَهِدَ إِلَى يُوسُفَ بِكُلِّ الْمَسَاجِينِ الْمُعْتَقَلِينَ، وَجَعَلَهُ مَسْؤولاً عَنْ كُلِّ مَا يَجْرِي هُنَاكَ. 23 وَلَمْ يُحَاسِبْ رَئِيسُ السِّجْنِ يُوسُفَ بِأَيِّ شَيْءٍ أَوْكَلَهُ إِلَيْهِ، لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ كَانَ مَعَهُ. وَمَهْمَا فَعَلَ كَانَ الرَّبُّ يُكَلِّلُهُ بِالنَّجَاحِ.

Joseph and Potiphar’s Wife

1 Now Joseph had been brought down to Egypt, and Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh, the captain of the guard, an Egyptian, had bought him from the Ishmaelites who had brought him down there. (تك 37:25; تك 37:28; تك 37:36) 2 The Lord was with Joseph, and he became a successful man, and he was in the house of his Egyptian master. (تك 21:22; تك 26:24; تك 26:28; تك 28:15; تك 39:21; 1صم 16:18; 1صم 18:14; 1صم 18:28; أع 7:9)

3 His master saw that the Lord was with him and that the Lord caused all that he did to succeed in his hands. (2أخ 26:5; مز 1:3) 4 So Joseph found favor in his sight and attended him, and he made him overseer of his house and put him in charge of all that he had. (تك 19:19; تك 33:10; تك 39:8; تك 39:21)

5 From the time that he made him overseer in his house and over all that he had, the Lord blessed the Egyptian’s house for Joseph’s sake; the blessing of the Lord was on all that he had, in house and field. (تك 30:27) 6 So he left all that he had in Joseph’s charge, and because of him he had no concern about anything but the food he ate. Now Joseph was handsome in form and appearance. (تك 29:17; 1صم 16:12) 7 And after a time his master’s wife cast her eyes on Joseph and said, “Lie with me.” 8 But he refused and said to his master’s wife, “Behold, because of me my master has no concern about anything in the house, and he has put everything that he has in my charge. (تك 39:4) 9 He is not greater in this house than I am, nor has he kept back anything from me except you, because you are his wife. How then can I do this great wickedness and sin against God?” (2صم 12:13; مز 51:4) 10 And as she spoke to Joseph day after day, he would not listen to her, to lie beside her or to be with her. (أم 1:10) 11 But one day, when he went into the house to do his work and none of the men of the house was there in the house, 12 she caught him by his garment, saying, “Lie with me.” But he left his garment in her hand and fled and got out of the house. (أم 7:13; أم 7:18) 13 And as soon as she saw that he had left his garment in her hand and had fled out of the house, 14 she called to the men of her household and said to them, “See, he has brought among us a Hebrew to laugh at us. He came in to me to lie with me, and I cried out with a loud voice. 15 And as soon as he heard that I lifted up my voice and cried out, he left his garment beside me and fled and got out of the house.” 16 Then she laid up his garment by her until his master came home, 17 and she told him the same story, saying, “The Hebrew servant, whom you have brought among us, came in to me to laugh at me. 18 But as soon as I lifted up my voice and cried, he left his garment beside me and fled out of the house.” 19 As soon as his master heard the words that his wife spoke to him, “This is the way your servant treated me,” his anger was kindled. 20 And Joseph’s master took him and put him into the prison, the place where the king’s prisoners were confined, and he was there in prison. (تك 40:3; تك 40:5; تك 40:15; تك 41:14; مز 105:18)

تك 40:3تك 40:5تك 40:15تك 41:14مز 105:18

21 But the Lord was with Joseph and showed him steadfast love and gave him favor in the sight of the keeper of the prison. (تك 39:2; خر 3:21; خر 11:3; خر 12:36; أع 7:9)

22 And the keeper of the prison put Joseph in charge of all the prisoners who were in the prison. Whatever was done there, he was the one who did it. (تك 40:4) 23 The keeper of the prison paid no attention to anything that was in Joseph’s charge, because the Lord was with him. And whatever he did, the Lord made it succeed. (تك 39:2)
