The Key Word — יְהוָ֖ה, Yah.wehgenerated
The name יְהוָה (Yahweh) signifies the self-existent God of Israel. It emphasizes God's eternal nature and His covenant relationship with His people, often translated as 'the LORD'. This name is pivotal throughout the Old Testament and is associated with God's actions and promises.
In this verse, יְהוָה indicates that it is the LORD's presence with Joseph that leads to his success. The warden's lack of concern reflects the trust placed in Joseph, which is undergirded by divine favor.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
This study reads the verse in the Berean Standard Bible, so the BSB is the wording every comparison below is made against.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main clause is governed by the verb רֹאֶ֤ה, [was] seeing, indicating the warden's lack of concern. The structure includes several noun phrases that describe what the warden did not concern himself with, as well as clauses that explain the reason for this.
The sentence's flow emphasizes the relationship between the warden's actions, Joseph's management, and the divine support he received, highlighting the cause-and-effect dynamic present in the narrative.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint translates יְהוָ֖ה as κύριος (Lord), which conveys the same divine authority in the Greek context. This choice maintains the significance of God's presence in Joseph's life and underscores the continuity of meaning across translations.
The Greek term οὐθέν for מְא֙וּמָה֙ reflects a similar emphasis on the absence of concern, reinforcing the idea that nothing was beyond Joseph's management due to divine favor.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Genesis 39:23 shows that the prison warden did not worry about anything Joseph was responsible for, because the LORD was with Joseph and helped him succeed in everything he did. This highlights how God's presence can lead to success even in difficult circumstances.

The four witnesses to this verse — Masoretic, Septuagint, Samaritan, Qumran
The Masoretic Text aligns closely with the Septuagint, though the Samaritan Pentateuch differs by using the word סחר (prison) instead of סֹהַר. The Dead Sea Scrolls partially restore the text but maintain the core meaning found in the Masoretic Text.
אֵ֣ין׀ שַׂ֣ר בֵּית־ הַסֹּ֗הַר רֹאֶ֤ה אֶֽת־ כָּל־ מְא֙וּמָה֙ בְּיָד֔וֹ בַּאֲשֶׁ֥ר יְהוָ֖ה אִתּ֑וֹ וַֽאֲשֶׁר־ ה֥וּא עֹשֶׂ֖ה יְהוָ֥ה מַצְלִֽיחַ׃ ס

Prison
The first occasion on which we read of a prison is in the history of Joseph in Egypt. Then Potiphar, “Joseph’s master, took him, and put him into the prison, a place where the king’s prisoners were bound” (Gen. 39:20-23). The Heb. word here used (sohar) means properly a round tower or fortress. It seems to have been a part of Potiphar’s house, a place in which state prisoners were kept.
The Mosaic law made no provision for imprisonment as a punishment. In the wilderness two persons were “put in ward” (Lev. 24:12; Num. 15:34), but it was only till the mind of God concerning them should be ascertained. Prisons and prisoners are mentioned in the book of Psalms (69:33; 79:11; 142:7). Samson was confined in a…
[For imprisonment as a punishment, see PUNISHMENTS] It is plain that in Egypt special places were used as prisons, and that they were under the custody of a military officer. (Genesis 40:3; 42:17) During the wandering in the desert we read on two occasions of confinement "in ward" -- (Leviticus 24:12; Numbers 15:34) but as imprisonment was not directed by the law, so we hear of none till the time of the kings, when the prison appears as an appendage to the palace, or a special part of it. (1 Kings 22:27) Private houses were sometimes used as places of confinement. By the Romans the tower of Antoni, was used as a prison at Jerusalem, (
