7 After these things, his master’s wife set her eyes on Joseph; and she said, “Lie with me.” And after a time his master’s wife cast her eyes on Joseph and said, “Lie with me.” and after a while his master’s wife took notice of Joseph and said, “Come to bed with me!”
8 But he refused, and said to his master’s wife, “Behold, my master doesn’t know what is with me in the house, and he has put all that he has into my hand. But he refused and said to his master’s wife, “Behold, because of me my master has no concern about anything in the house, and he has put everything that he has in my charge. But he refused. “With me in charge,” he told her, “my master does not concern himself with anything in the house; everything he owns he has entrusted to my care.
9 No one is greater in this house than I am, and he has not kept back anything from me but you, because you are his wife. How then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?” He is not greater in this house than I am, nor has he kept back anything from me except you, because you are his wife. How then can I do this great wickedness and sin against God?” No one is greater in this house than I am. My master has withheld nothing from me except you, because you are his wife. How then could I do such a wicked thing and sin against God?”
10 As she spoke to Joseph day by day, he didn’t listen to her, to lie by her, or to be with her. And as she spoke to Joseph day after day, he would not listen to her, to lie beside her or to be with her. And though she spoke to Joseph day after day, he refused to go to bed with her or even be with her.
