GENESIS

Genesis 39

1And 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.
Psalms 105:17, Genesis 37:28, Psalms 105:17, Genesis 37:28, Genesis 37:36
2And the Lord was with him, and he was a prosperous man in all things: and he dwelt in his master's house:
1 Samuel 18:14, 1 Samuel 18:14, Psalms 91:15, Psalms 91:15, Jeremiah 15:20
3Who knew very well that the Lord was with him, and made all that he did to prosper in his hand.
Psalms 1:3, Psalms 1:3, Genesis 30:27, Genesis 30:27, Matthew 5:16
4And 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:
Genesis 39:21, Genesis 39:22, Genesis 39:21, Genesis 39:22, Genesis 39:8
5And the Lord blessed the house of the Egyptian for Joseph's sake, and multiplied all his substance, both at home and in the fields.
Genesis 30:27, Genesis 30:27, 2 Samuel 6:11, 2 Samuel 6:12, 2 Samuel 6:11
6Neither knew he any other thing, but the bread which he ate. And Joseph was of a beautiful countenance, and comely to behold.
1 Samuel 16:12, Genesis 29:17, Proverbs 31:11, 1 Samuel 16:12, Genesis 29:17
7And after many days, his mistress cast her eyes on Joseph, and said: Lie with me.
2 Samuel 13:11, 2 Samuel 13:11, Ezekiel 16:34, 2 Peter 2:14, Ezekiel 16:34
8But 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:
Proverbs 22:14, Proverbs 1:10, Proverbs 23:26, Proverbs 23:28, Proverbs 7:5
9Neither is there any thing which is not 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 sin against my God?
2 Samuel 12:13, 2 Samuel 12:13, Genesis 20:6, Genesis 42:18, Genesis 20:6
10With such words as these day by day, both the woman was importunate with the young man, and he refused the adultery.
Genesis 39:8, Genesis 39:8, Proverbs 6:25, Proverbs 6:26, Proverbs 5:8
11Now it happened on a certain day, that Joseph went into the house, and was doing some business, without any man with him:
Jeremiah 23:24, Job 24:15, Malachi 3:5, Proverbs 9:17, Ephesians 5:3
12And she catching the skirt of his garment, said: Lie with me. But he leaving the garment in her hand, fled, and went out.
2 Timothy 2:22, Proverbs 7:13, Proverbs 7:27, 2 Timothy 2:22, Proverbs 7:13
13And when the woman saw the garment in her hands, and herself disregarded,
14She 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,
Isaiah 54:17, Genesis 40:15, Genesis 39:7, Luke 23:2, Psalms 55:3
15And he heard my voice, he left the garment that I held, and got him out.
16For a proof therefore of her fidelity, she kept the garment, and shewed it to her husband when he returned home:
Psalms 37:32, Psalms 37:32, Jeremiah 9:3, Jeremiah 9:5, Jeremiah 4:22
17And said: The Hebrew servant, whom thou hast brought, came to me to abuse me.
Exodus 23:1, Exodus 23:1, 1 Kings 21:9, 1 Kings 21:13, Proverbs 19:5
18And when he heard me cry, he left the garment which I held, and fled out.
19His master hearing these things, and giving too much credit to his wife's words, was very angry,
2 Thessalonians 2:11, Proverbs 18:17, Job 29:16, Song of Solomon 8:7, Acts 25:16
20And cast Joseph into the prison, where the king's prisoners were kept, and he was there shut up.
Genesis 40:15, Genesis 40:15, Genesis 40:1, Genesis 40:3, Psalms 76:10
21But the Lord was with Joseph, and having mercy upon him gave him favour in the sight of the chief keeper of the prison:
Exodus 3:21, Exodus 3:21, Isaiah 41:10, Isaiah 41:10, Acts 7:9
22Who delivered into his hand all the prisoners that were kept in custody: and whatsoever was done, was under him.
Genesis 39:4, Genesis 40:3, Genesis 40:4, Genesis 39:4, Genesis 40:3
23Neither did he himself know any thing, having committed all things to him: for the Lord was with him, and made all that he did to prosper.
Isaiah 43:2, Isaiah 43:2, Psalms 1:3, Genesis 39:2, Genesis 39:3
