Genesis 39:15-21 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

15. When he heard me screaming for help, he left his garment with me and ran outside.”

16. She put Joseph’s garment beside her until his master came home.

17. Then she told him the same story: “The Hebrew slave you brought to us came to make a fool of me,

18. but when I screamed for help, he left his garment with me and ran outside.”

19. When his master heard the story his wife told him — “These are the things your slave did to me” — he was furious

20. and had him thrown into prison, where the king’s prisoners were confined. So Joseph was there in prison.

21. But the Lord was with Joseph and extended kindness to him. He granted him favor in the eyes of the prison warden.
