Genesis 39:16-20
16So she 1leftH5117 his garmentH899 besideH681 her untilH5704 his masterH113 cameH935 homeH1004. 17Then she 2spokeH1696 to him 3with theseH428 wordsH1697, “4The HebrewH5680 slaveH5650, whomH834 you broughtH935 to us, cameH935 in to me to makeH6711 sportH6711 of me; 18and as I raisedH7311 my voiceH6963 and 5screamedH7121, he leftH5800 his garmentH899 besideH681 me and fledH5127 outsideH2351.”
19Now when his masterH113 heardH8085 the wordsH1697 of his wifeH802, whichH834 she spokeH1696 to him, sayingH559, “6ThisH1697H428 is whatH1697 your slaveH5650 didH6213 to me,” 7his angerH639 burnedH2734. 20So Joseph’sH3130 masterH113 tookH3947 him and 8putH5414 him into the jailH1004H5470, the placeH4725 whereH834 the king’sH4428 prisonersH615 were confinedH631; and he was thereH8033 in the jailH1004H5470.
