Genesis 39:6-15

New International Version

⁶ So Potiphar left everything he had in Joseph’s care;^(A) with Joseph in charge, he did not concern himself with anything except the food he ate.

Now Joseph was well-built and handsome,^{(B) 7} and after a while his master’s wife took notice of Joseph and said, “Come to bed with me!”^(C)

⁸ But he refused.^(D) “With me in charge,” he told her, “my master does not concern himself with anything in the house; everything he owns he has entrusted to my care.^{(E) 9} No one is greater in this house than I am.^(F) My master has withheld nothing from me except you, because you are his wife. How then could I do such a wicked thing and sin against God?”^{(G) 10} And though she spoke to Joseph day after day, he refused^(H) to go to bed with her or even be with her.

¹¹ One day he went into the house to attend to his duties,^(I) and none of the household servants^(J) was inside. ¹² She caught him by his cloak^(K) and said, “Come to bed with me!”^(L) But he left his cloak in her hand and ran out of the house.^(M)

¹³ When she saw that he had left his cloak in her hand and had run out of the house, ¹⁴ she called her household servants.^(N) “Look,” she said to them, “this Hebrew^(O) has been brought to us to make sport of us!^(P) He came in here to sleep with me, but I screamed.^{(Q) 15} When he heard me scream for help, he left his cloak beside me and ran out of the house.”^(R)
