Genesis 39:8-9

Context
39:8 But he refused, saying¹ to his master’s wife, “Look, my master does not give any thought² to his household with me here,³ and everything that he owns he has put into my care.⁴ 39:9 There is no one greater in this household than I am. He has withheld nothing from me except you because you are his wife. So how could I do⁵ such a great evil and sin against God?”

¹tn Heb “and he said.”

²tn Heb “know.”

³tn The word “here” has been supplied in the translation for stylistic reasons.

⁴tn Heb “hand.” This is a metonymy for being under the control or care of Joseph.

⁵tn The nuance of potential imperfect fits this context.
