Genesis 39:9

Joseph In Potiphar's House

⁸ But he would not, and said to her, You see that my master keeps no account of what I do in his house, and has put all his property in my control; ⁹ So that no one has more authority in this house than I have; he has kept nothing back from me but you, because you are his wife; how then may I do this great wrong, sinning against God? ¹⁰ And day after day she went on requesting Joseph to come to her and be her lover, but he would not give ear to her.
