"And she kept his coat by her, till his master came back."
— Genesis 39:16, Bible in Basic English
“And she laid up his garment by her, until his lord came home.”
And when she saw that he had got away, letting her keep his coat,
She sent for the men of her house and said to them, See, he has let a Hebrew come here and make sport of us; he came to my bed, and I gave a loud cry;
And hearing it he went running out without his coat.
And she kept his coat by her, till his master came back.
Then she gave him the same story, saying, The Hebrew servant whom you have taken into our house came in to make sport of me;
And when I gave a loud cry he went running out without his coat.
And hearing his wife's account of what his servant had done, he became very angry.
