Genesis 39:20-23

20And Joseph’s master took him, and put him into the prison, a place where the king’s prisoners were bound: and he was there in the prison.

21But Yhwh was with Joseph, and shewed him mercy, and gave him favour in the sight of the keeper of the prison.1 22And the keeper of the prison committed to Joseph’s hand all the prisoners that were in the prison; and whatsoever they did there, he was the doer of it. 23The keeper of the prison looked not to any thing that was under his hand; because Yhwh was with him, and that which he did, Yhwh made it to prosper.
