Compare all
11 But it happened about this time, when Joseph went into the house to do his work, and none of the men of the house was inside,
12 that she acaught him by his garment, saying, “Lie with me.” But he left his garment in her hand, and fled and ran outside.  
13 And so it was, when she saw that he had left his garment in her hand and fled outside,
14 that she called to the men of her house and spoke to them, saying, “See, he has brought in to us a aHebrew to mock us. He came in to me to lie with me, and I cried out with a loud voice.  
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.”

Genesis 39:10-18

First, he refused through words. He explained his belief to her in no uncertain terms. "Look, I will not do this because not only is it disloyal to my master, it is a sin against God," and against her, and it would be a sin against his wife to come.

Second, he bore all the temptations she laid before him, and avoided them as well as he could. When that ceased to be effective and she trapped him, he took physical action and fled. He got out of there no matter what the consequences to himself, leaving his garment behind, which was to them proof that he did what he was accused of. It landed him in prison. But he was able to go with a clear conscience, because he had done what was right. He is a sterling example of crucifying the flesh in order to walk in the Spirit.
