10 Quoiqu’elle parlât tous les jours à Joseph, il refusa de coucher auprès d’elle, d’être avec elle.
11 Un jour qu’il était entré dans la maison pour faire son ouvrage, et qu’il n’y avait là aucun des gens de la maison,
12 elle le saisit par son vêtement, en disant: Couche avec moi! Il lui laissa son vêtement dans la main, et s’enfuit au dehors.
13 Lorsqu’elle vit qu’il lui avait laissé son vêtement dans la main, et qu’il s’était enfui dehors,
14 elle appela les gens de sa maison, et leur dit: Voyez, il nous a amené un Hébreu pour se jouer de nous. Cet homme est venu vers moi pour coucher avec moi; mais j’ai crié à haute voix.
