Gen



Gen 39:10-21
10 She pestered him day after day after day, but he stood his ground. He refused to go to bed with her.
11 On one of these days he came to the house to do his work and none of the household servants happened to be there. 12 She grabbed him by his cloak, saying, "Sleep with me!" He left his coat in her hand and ran out of the house. 13 When she realized that he had left his coat in her hand and run outside, 14 she called to her house servants: "Look — this Hebrew shows up and before you know it he's trying to seduce us. He tried to make love to me but I yelled as loud as I could. 15 With all my yelling and screaming, he left his coat beside me here and ran outside."
16 She kept his coat right there until his master came home. 17 She told him the same story. She said, "The Hebrew slave, the one you brought to us, came after me and tried to use me for his plaything. 18 When I yelled and screamed, he left his coat with me and ran outside."
19 When his master heard his wife's story, telling him, "These are the things your slave did to me," he was furious. 20 Joseph's master took him and threw him into the jail where the king's prisoners were locked up. But there in jail 21 GOD was still with Joseph  

Really bad things happened to Joseph but God was still with him!
