    1Joseph was brought down to Egypt, and Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh and the captain of the guard, an Egyptian, bought him from the Ishmaelites who had brought him there.

    2The LORD was with Joseph, and he became a successful man, serving in the house of his Egyptian master.

    3His master saw that the LORD was with him and that the LORD gave him success in everything he did.

    4Joseph found favor in his master's eyes and became his personal servant. Potiphar put him in charge of his household and entrusted everything he owned to his care.
