    6 He left all that he had in Joseph's hand. He didn't concern himself with anything, except for the food which he ate. Joseph was well-built and handsome.

    7 It happened after these things, that his master's wife cast her eyes on Joseph; and she said, "Lie with me."

    8 But he refused, and said to his master's wife, "Behold, my master doesn't know what is with me in the house, and he has put all that he has into my hand.

    15 It happened, when he heard that I lifted up my voice and cried, that he left his garment by me, and ran outside."
