Genesis 39:19-23

19And it came to pass, when his masterH113 heardH8085 the wordsH1697 of his wifeH802, which she spake unto him, sayingH559, After this mannerH1697 did thy servantH5650 to me; that his wrath wasH1961 kindled. 20And Joseph’s masterH113 tookH3947 him, and putH5414 him into the prison, the placeH4725 whereH834 the king’sH4428 prisonersH631 were boundH631: and he wasH1961 there in the prison. 21But Jehovah wasH1961 with JosephH3130, and showed kindness unto him, and gaveH5414 him favorH2580 in the sight of the keeper of the prison. 22And the keeper of the prison committed to Joseph’sH3130 handH3027 all the prisonersH615 that were in the prison; and whatsoever they did there, he wasH1961 the doer of it. 23The keeper of the prison lookedH7200 not to anything that was under his handH3027, because Jehovah was with him; and that which he did, Jehovah madeH6213 it to prosperH6743.
