Genesis 41:39-44 ▼

39 And Pharaoh says to Joseph, “After God’s causing you to know all this, there is none intelligent and wise as you;

40 you are over my house, and at your mouth do all my people kiss; only in the throne I am greater than you.”

41 And Pharaoh says to Joseph, “See, I have put you over all the land of Egypt.”

42 And Pharaoh turns aside his seal-ring from off his hand, and puts it on the hand of Joseph, and clothes him [with] garments of fine linen, and places a chain of gold on his neck,

43 and causes him to ride in the second chariot which he has, and they proclaim before him, “Bow the knee!” And [he] set him over all the land of Egypt.

44 And Pharaoh says to Joseph, “I [am] Pharaoh, and without you a man does not lift up his hand and his foot in all the land of Egypt”;
