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.  
23 The keeper of the prison did not look into anything that was under1 Joseph’s authority, because the aLord was with him; and whatever he did, the Lord made it prosper.

Genesis 39:21

But the Lord was with Joseph and shewed him mercy. God despiseth not his prisoners, Psalms 69:33. No gates nor bars can shut out his gracious presence from his people. God gave him favour in the sight of the keeper of the prison - God can raise up friends for his people even where they little expect them. The keeper saw that God was with him, and that every thing prospered under his hand, and therefore intrusted him with the management of the affairs of the prison.
