In context

8 And he refused and said unto his lord’s wife, Lo! my lord, taketh no note with me as to what is in the house,—but, all that pertaineth to him, hath he delivered into my hand:

9 There is no one greater in this house than I, neither hath he withheld from me anything, save only thyself in that thou, art his wife,—how, then could I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?

10 And it came to pass, that although she Spake unto Joseph day after day, yet hearkened he not unto her to lie beside her to be with her.

11 And it came to pass, when, on a certain day, he went into the house to attend to his business,—and there was no man of the household, there in the house,

12 that she caught him by his garment, saying—Come! lie with me. Then left he his garment in her hand, and fled and gat forth outside,

13 And it came to pass when she saw that he had left his garment in her hand,—and fled forth outside,

14 that she cried out to the men of her house and spake to them, saying, Look ye! he hath brought in to us a Hebrew man to insult us,—He came in unto me, to lie with me, so I cried out with a loud voice.
