1Abaishimaeli baali nga bamaze okutwala Yosefu mu Misiri, era nga bamuguziiza Potifari omukungu wa kyabazinga w’e Misiri, era omukulu w’abaisirukale abaakuumanga ekisaagaati kya kyabazinga.39:1-2, 21: Bik 7:9 2Musengwa Katonda yaabanga ni Yosefu, era Yosefu oyo yaabanga wa nkabi mu byonabyona bye yakolanga; yaabanga mu ndhu ya musengwa we Omumisiri. 3Omumisiri oyo yaabona nga Musengwa Katonda ali ni Yosefu, era ng’amugha enkabi mu buli ky’akola. 4Potifari yaasiima Yosefu, yaamufuula mugheereza we, era yaamugha okulabiriranga endhu ye, n’okukuumanga ebibye byonabyona. 5Okuva ku olwo, Musengwa Katonda yaagha enkabi amaka g’Omumisiri oyo n’ebibye byonabyona, bye yali nabyo mu ndhu ye ni mu nimiro. Musengwa yakola kino ku lwa Yosefu. 6Kale Potifari yaalekera Yosefu ebibye byonabyona okubirabiriranga, nga takeeraliikirira kintu kyonakyona okutoolaku emere ye yalyanga.

Ekikula kya Yosefu kyali nga kisanhusa okubona. 7Bweghaabitagho entangama, muka musengwa we yaamulinga ekimodi, yaakoba ati: “Ba ninze mu buliri.” 8Aye Yosefu yaaloba, yaakoba muka musengwa we ati: “Bona, musengwa wange takeeraliikirira kintu kyonakyona mu ndhu, kuba nze ndigho, era yandekera ebibye byonabyona okubirabirira. 9Ndi n’obuyinza mu maka muno obwagayaga n’obubwe, era ghazira ky’atangemya okutoolaku iwe; kuba oli mukazi we. Kale nsobola ntya okukola ekibi ekyaga agho ni nsobya eri Katonda?” 10Era waire ng’omukazi oyo yadeebanga Yosefu buli kaakyeire, aye Yosefu yaloba okuba naye, waire okuba gh’ali.

11Aye lwali lulala Yosefu yaingira mu ndhu okukola emirimo gye, era nga ghazira bagheereza ba mu ndhu eyo bandi. 12Omukazi yaagema Yosefu ekivaalo, ng’amukoba ati: “Ba ninze.” Aye Yosefu yaalekulira ekivaalo kye mu ngalo dh’omukazi, yaalumuka yaafuluma ku luya. 13Omukazi bweyabona nga Yosefu amulekuliire ekivaalo kye mu ngalo era nga alumwike, yaafuluma ku luya, 14yaayeta abagheereza ab’omu ndhu ye, yaabakoba ati: “Mubone, baze yaleeta muno Omuheburayi okutudhooga. Aingiire ye mbaire, ng’ayenda okunkaka okuba naye, aye nze naakuba inho enduulu. 15Bw’awuliire nga nkubye enduulu, yandekera ekivaalo kye, yaalumuka yaafuluma ku luya.”

16Omukazi yaakuuma ekivaalo kya Yosefu, okutuusa musengwa wa Yosefu lwe yaira eka. 17Era bweyaira yaamukobera kyene ekyo ati: “Omugheereza Omuheburayi ye watuleetera, yaingira ye nali okundhooga. 18Aye bwe nakuba enduulu, yandekera ekivaalo kye, yaalumuka, yaafuluma ku luya.”

19Agho musengwa wa Yosefu bweyawulira mukazi we ng’amukobera nga Yosefu bweyali amubisiisa, yaasungughala, 20yaagema Yosefu, yaamuta mu ikomera abasibe aba kyabazinga mwe bakuumirwa; Yosefu yaaba omwo mu ikomera. 21Aye Musengwa Katonda yaabanga ni Yosefu oyo, yaamwoleka nga bw’amugonza obutalekera, yaaleetera omukuumi w’eikomera okumugemerwanga ekivunika. 22Era omukuumi w’eikomera oyo yaagemya Yosefu abasibe boonaboona okubalabiriranga, era yaamugha obuvunaanizibwa ku kiisi kikolebwa mu ikomera. 23Omukuumi w’eikomera tiyeeraliikiriranga kintu kyonakyona ekyagemesebwa Yosefu, kuba Musengwa Katonda yali ghalala ni Yosefu, ng’agha enkabi kiisi kye yakolanga.
