*
And after a time his master '
s wife cast her eyes upon Joseph ,
and said , "
Lie with me ."
*
But he refused and said to his master '
s wife , "
Lo ,
having me my master has no concern about anything in the house ,
and he has put everything that he has in my hand ;
*
he is not greater in this house than I am ;
nor has he kept back anything from me except yourself ,
because you are his wife ;
how then can I do this great wickedness ,
and sin against God ?"
*
And although she spoke to Joseph day after day ,
he would not listen to her ,
to lie with her or to be with her .
*
But one day ,
when he went into the house to do his work and none of the men of the house was there in the house ,
*
she caught him by his garment ,
saying , "
Lie with me ."
But he left his garment in her hand ,
and fled and got out of the house .
*
And when she saw that he had left his garment in her hand ,
and had fled out of the house ,
