Genesis 39:5 in Context — Genesis 39
3 Son maître vit que l’Éternel était avec lui, et que l’Éternel faisait prospérer entre ses mains tout ce qu’il entreprenait.
4 Joseph trouva grâce aux yeux de son maître, qui l’employa à son service, l’établit sur sa maison, et lui confia tout ce qu’il possédait.
5 Dès que Potiphar l’eut établi sur sa maison et sur tout ce qu’il possédait, l’Éternel bénit la maison de l’Égyptien, à cause de Joseph; et la bénédiction de l’Éternel fut sur tout ce qui lui appartenait, soit à la maison, soit aux champs.
6 Il abandonna aux mains de Joseph tout ce qui lui appartenait, et il n’avait avec lui d’autre soin que celui de prendre sa nourriture. Or, Joseph était beau de taille et beau de figure.
7 Après ces choses, il arriva que la femme de son maître porta les yeux sur Joseph, et dit: Couche avec moi!
