33. And now let Pharaoh look himself out a man discreet and wise, and set him over the land of Egypt.
34. Let Pharaoh do this: let him appoint overseers over the land, and take the fifth part of the land of Egypt during the seven years of plenty,
35. and let them gather all the food of these coming good years, and lay up corn under the hand of Pharaoh, for food in the cities, and keep it.
36. And let the food be as store for the land for the seven years of famine, which will be in the land of Egypt, that the land perish not through the famine.
37. And the word was good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of all his bondmen.
38. And Pharaoh said to his bondmen, Shall we find one as this, a man in whom the Spirit of God is?
39. And Pharaoh said to Joseph, Since God has made all this known to thee, there is none so discreet and wise as thou.
40. Thou shalt be over my house, and according to thy commandment shall all my people regulate themselves; only concerning the throne will I be greater than thou.
41. And Pharaoh said to Joseph, See, I have set thee over all the land of Egypt.
