Genesis 39:9-19

912There is no one greater in this house than I, and he has withheld nothing from me except you, because you are his wife. How then could I do this great evil, and 3sin against God?” 10Though she spoke to Joseph day after day, he did not listen to her to lie beside her or be with her. 11Now it happened 4one day that he went into the house to do his work, and none of the people of the household was there inside. 12So she grabbed him by his garment, saying, “Sleep with me!” But he left his garment in her hand and fled, and went outside. 135When she saw that he had left his garment in her hand and had fled outside, 14she called to the men of her household and said to them, “See, he has brought in a 6Hebrew to us to make fun of us; he came in to me to sleep with me, and I 7screamed. 15When he heard that I raised my voice and 8screamed, he left his garment beside me and fled and went outside.” 16So she 9left his garment beside her until his master came home. 17Then she 10spoke to him 11with these 12words: “The Hebrew slave, whom you brought to us, came in to me to make fun of me; 18but when I raised my voice and 13screamed, he left his garment beside me and fled outside.”

19Now when his master heard the words of his wife which she spoke to him, saying, “14This is what your slave did to me,” 15his anger burned.
