Genesis 39:9

Read Full Chapter
No one in this house is greater than I am. He has withheld nothing from me except you, because you are his wife. So how could I do such a great evil and sin against God?”
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
He isn’t greater in this house than I, neither has he kept back anything from me but you, because you are his wife. How then can I do this great wickedness, and sin against God?”
World English Bible (WEB)
There is none greater{H1419} in this house{H1004} than I; neither{H3808} hath he kept back{H2820}{(H8804)} any thing{H3972} from me but thee, because{H834} thou{H859} art his wife{H802}: how then can I do{H6213}{(H8799)} this great{H1419} wickedness{H7451}, and sin{H2398}{(H8804)} against God{H430}?
