41 See here,| Pharaoh said to Joseph, |I place you in authority over all the land of Egypt.| 42 Then Pharaoh took his signet ring from his own hand and put it on Joseph's. He clothed him with fine linen clothes and put a gold chain around his neck. 43 Pharaoh had him ride in the chariot used by his second-in-command, and they cried out before him, |Kneel down!| So he placed him over all the land of Egypt. 44 Pharaoh also said to Joseph, |I am Pharaoh, but without your permission no one will move his hand or his foot in all the land of Egypt.| 45 Pharaoh gave Joseph the name Zaphenath-Paneah. He also gave him Asenath daughter of Potiphera, priest of On, to be his wife. So Joseph took charge of all the land of Egypt. Genesis 41:41-45, New English Translation.
