*
Now therefore let Pharaoh look out a man discreet and wise ,
and set him over the land of Egypt .
*
Let Pharaoh do this ,
and let him appoint officers over the land ,
and take up the fifth part of the land of Egypt in the seven plenteous years .
*
And let them gather all the food of those good years that come ,
and lay up corn under the hand of Pharaoh Par #
oh #,
and let them keep food in the cities .
*
And that food shall be for store to the land against the seven years of famine ra #
ab #,
which shall be in the land of Egypt ;
that the land perish not through the famine ra #
ab #.
*
And the thing was good in the eyes of Pharaoh Par #
oh #,
and in the eyes of all his servants .
*
And Pharaoh said unto his servants ,
Can we find such a one as this is ,
a man in whom the Spirit of God is ?
*
And Pharaoh said unto Joseph ,
Forasmuch as God hath shewed thee all this ,
there is none so discreet and wise as thou art :
*
Thou shalt be over my house ,
and according unto thy word shall all my people be ruled :
only in the throne will I be greater than thou .
*
And Pharaoh said unto Joseph ,
See ,
I have set thee over all the land of Egypt .
*
And Pharaoh took off his ring from his hand ,
and put it upon Josephs hand ,
and arrayed him in vestures of fine linen ,
and put a gold chain about his neck tsavva #
r #;
*
And he made him to ride in the second chariot which he had ;
and they cried before him ,
Bow the knee :
and he made him ruler over all the land of Egypt .
*
And Pharaoh said unto Joseph ,
I am Pharaoh Par #
oh #,
and without thee shall no man lift up his hand or foot in all the land of Egypt .
