Genesis 41:37-45 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

37. And the word was good in the eyes of Pharaoh and in the eyes of all his servants.

38. And Pharaoh said to his servants, “Could we find another like him, a man in whom is the Spirit of Elohim?”

39. Then Pharaoh said to Yosĕph, “Since Elohim has shown you all this, there is no one as discerning and wise as you.

40. “Be over my house, you yourself, and at your mouth all my people shall kiss – only in the throne I am greater than you.”

41. And Pharaoh said to Yosĕph, “See, I have set you over all the land of Mitsrayim.”

42. And Pharaoh took his seal-ring off his hand and put it on Yosĕph’s hand. And he dressed him in garments of fine linen and put a gold chain around his neck.

43. And he had him ride in the second chariot which he had. And they cried out before him, “Bow the knee!” And he set him over all the land of Mitsrayim.

44. And Pharaoh said to Yosĕph, “I am Pharaoh, and without a word from you let no man lift his hand or foot in all the land of Mitsrayim.”

45. And Pharaoh called Yosĕph’s name Zaphnath-Pa‛nĕaḥ. And he gave him as a wife Asenath, the daughter of Poti-Pherah priest of On. And Yosĕph went out over all the land of Mitsrayim.
