Now the ^(F1)proposal seemed good ^(F2)to Pharaoh and ^(F2)to all his servants.

Then Pharaoh said to his servants, "Can we find a man like this, ^(C1)in whom there is a divine spirit?"

So Pharaoh said to Joseph, "Since God has informed you of all this, there is no one as ^(C1)discerning and wise as you are.

"^(C1)You shall be ^(F1)in charge of my house, and all my people shall ^(F2)be obedient to you; only regarding the throne will I be greater than you."

Pharaoh also said to Joseph, "See, I have placed you ^(C1)over all the land of Egypt."

Then Pharaoh ^(C1)took off his signet ring from his hand and put it on Joseph's hand, and clothed him in garments of fine linen, and ^(C2)put the gold necklace around his neck.

And he had him ride in ^(F1)his second chariot; and they proclaimed ahead of him, "^(F2)Bow the knee!" And he placed him over all the land of Egypt.

Moreover, Pharaoh said to Joseph, "Though I am Pharaoh, yet ^(C1)without ^(F1)your permission no one shall raise his hand or foot in all the land of Egypt."

Then Pharaoh named Joseph ^(F1)Zaphenath-paneah; and he gave him Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera priest of ^(F2)(C1)On, to be his wife. And Joseph went out over the land of Egypt.
