创39：-45：
Joseph served Potiphar well. Potiphar's wife wanted Joseph to sin against God. Joseph refused, so she lied about him. Potiphar believed her,and Joseph was thrown into prison.
约瑟尽心服侍波提乏，波提乏的妻子却引诱约瑟犯罪得罪上帝。约瑟拒绝了她，她就陷害约瑟。波提乏信了妻子的谎言，把约瑟关进了监狱。
In prison, Joseph met two of Pharaoh's servants. They each had dreams, and God showed Joseph their meaning. Joseph's explanations came true. The cupbearer was released, and the baker was hanged.
在牢房里，约瑟遇到法老的两个仆人，就是酒政和膳食长。他们各自做了一个梦，上帝将梦的意思告诉约瑟，约瑟就为他们解梦。不久，约瑟的解释应验了：酒政被释放，膳食长则被处死。
Two years later, Pharaoh had two troubling dreams.The cupbearer remembered 
what Joseph had done for him and told Pharaoh. So,Pharaoh sent for Joseph and told him his dreams.
两年后，法老做了两个令他困惑的梦。酒政想起了约瑟，就将约瑟为他解梦的事告诉了法老。于是，法老把约瑟召来，将所做的梦告诉了约瑟。
Cod showed Joseph the  meaning of Pharaoh's dreams. "For seven years, a lot of food will grow," said Joseph. "So store up food because seven years of famine will follow."Pharaoh was impressed by Joseph's wisdom. So he put Joseph in charge of storing up all the food! Apart from Pharaoh, no one in Egypt was more powerful than Joseph.
上帝将法老做的梦启示绐约瑟，约瑟就对法老说：“埃及全国将有七年的大丰收，这七年要储存粮食，因为之后要有七年的饥荒。”法老对约瑟的智慧感到惊奇，就派他治理埃及，负责储存粮食的事。除了法老以外，埃及没有人比约瑟更有权力了。
Joseph's brothers went to Egypt to buy food. They bowed before Joseph but did not recognize him.When he saw that they had changed, he told them who he was.
约瑟的兄弟们去埃及买粮食。他们向约瑟下拜，却没认出他。当约瑟发现他们已经悔改，就向他们表明了自己的身份。
The brothers were terrified."You meant to harm me,"Joseph said, "but God used that for good. Bring all of our family to Egypt. We will have plenty to eat!"
他的兄弟们非常害怕。约瑟安慰他们说：“从前你们有意害我，但上帝却用这事成就他的美意。你们去把所有的家人都接到埃及来。这里有充足的食物供我们吃。”
