← Genesis 39:5	Genesis 39:6 (KJV)	Genesis 39:7 →
And it came to pass from the time [that] he had made him overseer in his house, and over all that he had, that the LORD blessed the Egyptian's house for Joseph's sake; and the blessing of the LORD was upon all that he had in the house, and in the field.	And he left all that he had in Joseph's hand; and he knew not ought he had, save the bread which he did eat. And Joseph was [a] goodly [person], and well favoured.	And it came to pass after these things, that his master's wife cast her eyes upon Joseph; and she said, Lie with me.
