Genesis 39:18-23 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

18. so it came to be, as I lifted my voice and cried out, that he left his garment with me and fled outside.”

19. And it came to be, when his master heard the words which his wife spoke to him, saying, “Your servant did to me according to these words,” that his displeasure burned.

20. Then Yosĕph’s master took him and put him into the prison, a place where the sovereign’s prisoners were confined. And he was there in the prison.

21. But יהוה was with Yosĕph and extended kindness to him, and He gave him favour in the eyes of the prison warden.

22. And the prison warden gave into the hand of Yosĕph all the prisoners who were in the prison, and whatever was done there was his doing.

23. The prison warden did not look into any point that was under Yosĕph’s hand, because יהוה was with him. And whatever he did, יהוה made it prosper.
