15 And it happened, when he heard that I lifted my voice and cried out, that he left his garment with me, and fled and went outside.”
16 So she kept his garment with her until his master came home.
17 Then she aspoke to him with words like these, saying, “The Hebrew servant whom you brought to us came in to me to mock me;
18 so it happened, as I lifted my voice and cried out, that he left his garment with me and fled outside.”
19 So it was, when his master heard the words which his wife spoke to him, saying, “Your servant did to me after this manner,” that his aanger was aroused.
20 Then Joseph’s master took him and aput him into the bprison, a place where the king’s prisoners were confined. And he was there in the prison.
21 But the Lord was with Joseph and showed him mercy, and He agave him favor in the sight of the keeper of the prison.
22 And the keeper of the prison acommitted to Joseph’s hand all the prisoners who were in the prison; whatever they did there, it was his doing.
