Context
Joseph Given Charge of Egypt

37And the thing was good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and in the eyes of all his servants. 38And Pharaoh said to his servants, Can we find such a one as this is, a man in whom the Spirit of God is? 39And Pharaoh said to Joseph, For as much as God has showed you all this, there is none so discreet and wise as you are: 40You shall be over my house, and according to your word shall all my people be ruled: only in the throne will I be greater than you. 41And Pharaoh said to Joseph, See, I have set you over all the land of Egypt. 42And Pharaoh took off his ring from his hand, and put it on Joseph's hand, and arrayed him in clothing of fine linen, and put a gold chain about his neck; 43And 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. 44And Pharaoh said to Joseph, I am Pharaoh, and without you shall no man lift up his hand or foot in all the land of Egypt. 45And Pharaoh called Joseph's name Zaphnathpaaneah; and he gave him to wife Asenath the daughter of Potipherah priest of On. And Joseph went out over all the land of Egypt.
