Genesis 39:19-23

19Now when his masterH113 heardH8085 the wordsH1697 of his wifeH802 whichH834 she spokeH1696 to him, sayingH559, “1ThisH1697H428 is whatH1697 your slaveH5650 didH6213 to me,” 2his angerH639 burnedH2734.

20So Joseph’sH3130 masterH113 tookH3947 him and 3putH5414 him into the prisonH1004H5470, the placeH4725 whereH834 the king’sH4428 prisonersH615 were confinedH631; and he was thereH8033 in the prisonH1004H5470.

21But 4the LordH3068 was with JosephH3130 and extendedH5186 kindnessH2617 to him, and 5gaveH5414 him favorH2580 in the sightH5869 of the wardenH8269 of the prisonH1004H5470.

22And the wardenH8269 of the prisonH1004H5470 67putH5414 JosephH3130 in chargeH3027 of allH3605 the prisonersH615 whoH834 were in the prisonH1004H5470; so that whateverH3605H834 was doneH6213 thereH8033, he was 8responsibleH6213 for it.

239The wardenH8269 of the prisonH1004H5470 did not superviseH7200 anythingH3605H3972 10under Joseph’s authorityH3027, becauseH834 11the LordH3068 was with him; and, 12the LordH3068 made whateverH834 he didH6213 prosperH6743.
