Genesis 41:41-45 ▼

41 |Look!| Pharaoh confirmed to Joseph, |I've put you in charge of the entire land of Egypt!|

42 Then Pharaoh removed his signet ring from his hand, placed it on Joseph's hand, had him clothed in fine linen garments, and placed a gold chain around his neck.

43 Then he provided him with a chariot as his second-in-command, outfitted with a group of people who shouted out in front of him, |Bow your knees!| And that's how Pharaoh set Joseph over the entire land of Egypt.

44 Pharaoh also told Joseph, |I'm still Pharaoh, but without your permission nobody in all of the land of Egypt will so much as lift up their hands or take a step!|

45 Pharaoh also changed Joseph's name to Zaphenath-paneah and gave Asenath, daughter of Potiphera, the priest of On, to him as his wife. And that's how Joseph gained authority over the land of Egypt.
