39 Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, “Since God has shown you all this, there is none so discerning and wise as you are. 40 (A)You shall be over my house, and all my people shall order themselves as you command.[a] Only as regards the throne will I be greater than you.” 41 And Pharaoh said to Joseph, “See, (B)I have set you over all the land of Egypt.” 42 Then Pharaoh (C)took his signet ring from his hand and put it on Joseph's hand, and (D)clothed him in garments of fine linen (E)and put a gold chain about his neck. 43 And he made him ride in his second chariot. (F)And they called out before him, “Bow the knee!”[b] Thus he set him (G)over all the land of Egypt. 44 Moreover, Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I am Pharaoh, and (H)without your consent no one shall lift up hand or foot in all the land of Egypt.” 45 And Pharaoh called Joseph's name Zaphenath-paneah. And he gave him in marriage Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera priest of On. So Joseph went out over the land of Egypt.
46 Joseph was thirty years old when he (I)entered the service of Pharaoh king of Egypt. And Joseph went out from the presence of Pharaoh and went through all the land of Egypt. 47 During the seven plentiful years the earth produced abundantly, 48 and he gathered up all the food of these seven years, which occurred in the land of Egypt, and put the food in the cities. He put in every city the food from the fields around it.

Joseph in Charge of Egypt
41 So Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I hereby put you in charge of the whole land of Egypt.”(F) 42 Then Pharaoh took his signet ring(G) from his finger and put it on Joseph’s finger. He dressed him in robes(H) of fine linen(I) and put a gold chain around his neck.(J) 43 He had him ride in a chariot(K) as his second-in-command,[a](L) and people shouted before him, “Make way[b]!”(M) Thus he put him in charge of the whole land of Egypt.(N)
44 Then Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I am Pharaoh, but without your word no one will lift hand or foot in all Egypt.”(O) 45 Pharaoh gave Joseph(P) the name Zaphenath-Paneah and gave him Asenath daughter of Potiphera, priest(Q) of On,[c](R) to be his wife.(S) And Joseph went throughout the land of Egypt.
46 Joseph was thirty years old(T) when he entered the service(U) of Pharaoh king of Egypt.
