Genesis 39:7-12
7After some time had passed, Potiphar's wife saw that Joseph was handsome. She said, ‘Come to bed with me!’
8But Joseph refused to do that. He said, ‘My master does not need to think about anything in the house. I take care of everything that belongs to him.
9No one has more authority in this house than I do. My master keeps nothing from me, except you. That is because you are his wife. I could not do such a bad thing. I could not do a sin that is against God.’
10Potiphar's wife continued to speak to Joseph every day. But he would not agree to go to bed with her. He would not even go near her.
11One day Joseph went into the house to do his work. None of the other servants were there in the house.
12Potiphar's wife suddenly took hold of Joseph's coat. She said, ‘Come to bed with me!’ Joseph left his coat in her hand and he ran out of the house.
