Genesis 41:45-52 ▼

45 Pharaoh (great house) gave Joseph (YHWH has added) the name Zaphenath-paneah (Revealer of Mysteries), and he gave him Asenath (belonging to the goddess Neith) daughter of Potiphera (he whom the Ra gave), priest of On (Heliopolis), to be his wife. And Joseph took charge of all the land of Egypt (land of bondage).

46 Now Joseph (YHWH has added) was thirty years old when he entered the service of Pharaoh (great house) king of Egypt (land of bondage). And Joseph left Pharaoh’s presence and traveled throughout the land of Egypt.

47 During the seven years of abundance, the land brought forth bountifully.

48 During those seven years, Joseph collected all the excess food in the land of Egypt (land of bondage) and stored it in the cities. In every city he laid up the food from the fields around it.

49 So Joseph (YHWH has added) stored up grain in such abundance, like the sand of the sea, that he stopped keeping track of it; for it was beyond measure.

50 Before the years of famine arrived, two sons were born to Joseph (YHWH has added) by Asenath (belonging to the goddess Neith) daughter of Potiphera (he whom the Ra gave), priest of On (Heliopolis).

51 Joseph (YHWH has added) named the firstborn Manasseh (making to forget), saying, “God {Elohim} has made me forget all my hardship and all my father’s household.”

52 And the second son he named Ephraim (twice fruitful), saying, “God {Elohim} has made me fruitful in the land of my affliction.”
