Genesis 39:9Holy Bible: Easy-to-Read VersionMy master has made me almost equal to him in his house. I cannot sleep with his wife! That is wrong! It is a sin against God.” See the chapter |
But what about the servant who does not know what his master wants? He also does things that deserve punishment. But he will get less punishment than the servant who knew what he should do. Whoever has been given much will be responsible for much. Much more will be expected from the one who has been given more.”
But the governors who ruled before me made life hard for the people. The governors forced everyone to pay 1 pound of silver. They also made the people give them food and wine. The leaders under these governors also ruled over the people and made life even harder. But I respected and feared God, so I didn’t do things like that.
