Genesis 39:11-20 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

11. Now on one such day, he came into the house to do his work, and none of the people of the house were there in the house.

12. Then she grabbed him by his garment saying, “Come, lie with me!” But he left his garment in her hand, fled and went outside.

13. When she saw that he had left his garment in her hand and fled outside,

14. she screamed to the men of her house and said to them, “Look! Someone brought a Hebrew man to us to fool with us. He approached me to lie with me so I screamed out loud.

15. When he heard me raise my voice and scream, he left his garment with me, fled and went outside.”

16. Then she kept the garment with her until his master came home.

17. She spoke the same words to him saying, “The Hebrew slave that you brought us approached me to fool with me.

18. When I raised my voiced and screamed, he left his garment with me and fled outside.”

19. Now when his master heard the words his wife spoke to him saying, “Such are the things your slave did to me,” his anger burned.

20. Then Joseph’s master took him and put him in prison, the place where the king’s prisoners were confined. So there he was, in the prison.
