And Joseph found favor in his eyes, and served him. And he appointed him over his house, and all that he had he entrusted to his hand.

Thus he left all that he had in Joseph's hand, and he did not know what he had except for the bread which he ate. Now Joseph was handsome and good looking.

And it came to pass after these things that his master's wife cast her eyes upon Joseph, and she said, Lie with me.

There is no one greater in this house than I, nor has he kept back anything from me but you, because you are his wife. How then can I do this great evil, and sin against God?

And he put them into custody in the house of the captain of the guard, in the prison house, the place where Joseph was confined.

And the captain of the guard assigned Joseph to them, and he served them; so they were in custody for a time.

Therefore Jehovah the God of Israel says: I said indeed that your house and the house of your father would walk before Me forever. But now Jehovah says: Far be it from Me! For those who honor Me I will honor, and those who despise Me shall be lightly esteemed.

Trust in Jehovah, and do good; dwell in the land, and feed on faithfulness.

But the lowly shall inherit the earth, and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.
