Genesis 39
|
José foi levado ao Egito; e Potifar, oficial de Faraó, capitão da guarda, egípcio, comprou-o da mão dos ismaelitas que o haviam levado para lá. | And Joseph was brought down to Egypt; and Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh's, the captain of the guard, an Egyptian, bought him of the hand of the Ishmaelites, that had brought him down thither. |
Mas o Senhor era com José, e ele tornou-se próspero; e estava na casa do seu senhor, o egípcio. | And Jehovah was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man; and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian. |
E viu o seu senhor que Deus era com ele, e que fazia prosperar em sua mão tudo quanto ele empreendia. | And his master saw that Jehovah was with him, and that Jehovah made all that he did to prosper in his hand. |
Assim José achou graça aos olhos dele, e o servia; de modo que o fez mordomo da sua casa, e entregou na sua mão tudo o que tinha. | And Joseph found favor in his sight, and he ministered unto him: and he made him overseer over his house, and all that he had he put into his hand. |
Desde que o pôs como mordomo sobre a sua casa e sobre todos os seus bens, o Senhor abençoou a casa do egípcio por amor de José; e a bênção do Senhor estava sobre tudo o que tinha, tanto na casa como no campo. | And it came to pass from the time that he made him overseer in his house, and over all that he had, that Jehovah blessed the Egyptian's house for Joseph's sake; and the blessing of Jehovah was upon all that he had, in the house and in the field. |
Potifar deixou tudo na mão de José, de maneira que nada sabia do que estava com ele, a não ser do pão que comia. Ora, José era formoso de porte e de semblante. | And he left all that he had in Joseph's hand; and he knew not aught [that was] with him, save the bread which he did eat. And Joseph was comely, and well-favored. |
E aconteceu depois destas coisas que a mulher do seu senhor pôs os olhos em José, e lhe disse: Deita-te comigo. | And it came to pass after these things, that his master's wife cast her eyes upon Joseph; and she said, Lie with me. |
Mas ele recusou, e disse à mulher do seu senhor: Eis que o meu senhor não sabe o que está comigo na sua casa, e entregou em minha mão tudo o que tem; | But he refused, and said unto his master's wife, Behold, my master knoweth not what is with me in the house, and he hath put all that he hath into my hand: |
ele não é maior do que eu nesta casa; e nenhuma coisa me vedou, senão a ti, porquanto és sua mulher. Como, pois, posso eu cometer este grande mal, e pecar contra Deus? | he is not greater in this house than I; neither hath he kept back anything from me but thee, because thou art his wife: how then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God? |
Entretanto, ela instava com José dia após dia; ele, porém, não lhe dava ouvidos, para se deitar com ela, ou estar com ela. | 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. |
Mas sucedeu, certo dia, que entrou na casa para fazer o seu serviço; e nenhum dos homens da casa estava lá dentro. | And it came to pass about this time, that he went into the house to do his work; and there was none of the men of the house there within. |
Então ela, pegando-o pela capa, lhe disse: Deita-te comigo! Mas ele, deixando a capa na mão dela, fugiu, escapando para fora. | 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. |
Quando ela viu que ele deixara a capa na mão dela e fugira para fora, | And it came to pass, when she saw that he had left his garment in her hand, and was fled forth, |
chamou pelos homens de sua casa, e disse-lhes: Vede! meu marido trouxe-nos um hebreu para nos insultar; veio a mim para se deitar comigo, e eu gritei em alta voz; | that she called unto the men of her house, and spake unto them, saying, See, he hath brought in a Hebrew unto us to mock us: he came in unto me to lie with me, and I cried with a loud voice: |
e ouvigiu-se para ela no caminho, e disse: Vem, deixa-me deixou, aqui a sua capa e fugiu, escapando para fora. | and it came to pass, when he heard that I lifted up my voice and cried, that he left his garment by me, and fled, and got him out. |
Ela guardou a capa consigo, até que o senhor dele voltou a casa. | And she laid up his garment by her, until his master came home. |
Então falou-lhe conforme as mesmas palavras, dizendo: O servo hebreu, que nos trouxeste, veio a mim para me insultar; | And she spake unto him according to these words, saying, The Hebrew servant, whom thou hast brought unto us, came in unto me to mock me: |
mas, levantando eu a voz e gritando, ele deixou comigo a capa e fugiu para fora. | and it came to pass, as I lifted up my voice and cried, that he left his garment by me, and fled out. |
Tendo o seu senhor ouvido as palavras de sua mulher, que lhe falava, dizendo: Desta maneira me fez teu servo, a sua ira se acendeu. | 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. |
Então o senhor de José o tomou, e o lançou no cárcere, no lugar em que os presos do rei estavam encarcerados; e ele ficou ali no cárcere. | And Joseph's master took him, and put him into the prison, the place where the king's prisoners were bound: and he was there in the prison. |
O Senhor, porém, era com José, estendendo sobre ele a sua benignidade e dando-lhe graça aos olhos do carcereiro, | But Jehovah was with Joseph, and showed kindness unto him, and gave him favor in the sight of the keeper of the prison. |
o qual entregou na mão de José todos os presos que estavam no cárcere; e era José quem ordenava tudo o que se fazia ali. | 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. |
E o carcereiro não tinha cuidado de coisa alguma que estava na mão de José, porquanto o Senhor era com ele, fazendo prosperar tudo quanto ele empreendia. | The keeper of the prison looked not to anything that was under his hand, because Jehovah was with him; and that which he did, Jehovah made it prosper. |
