Joseph in Prison [08-05]
His master’s wife tried to sleep with Joseph, but Joseph refused to sin against God in this way. She became angry and falsely accused Joseph so that he was arrested and sent to prison. Even in prison, Joseph remained faithful to God, and God blessed him.
他主人的妻子看上了约瑟，想要和他睡觉。但是约瑟拒绝了，因为这样做是犯罪的，是违背神的。主人的妻子非常的生气，就把约瑟绑起来，投进了监狱。即使在监狱里，约瑟也忠心侍奉神，神赐福给他。

Translation Notes:
- tried to sleep with Joseph – Another way to say this would be, "tried to seduce Joseph to have sex with her." To "sleep with" is a way of expressing this in order not to be crude or offensive.
- sin against God - It is against God's law for people to have sex if they are not married to each other. Joseph did not want to sin by disobeying God's law.
- remained faithful to God - Another way to say this would be, "continued to obey God."
