Genesis 41:46-56

46And Joseph was thirty years old when he stood before Pharaoh king of Egypt. And Joseph went out from Pharaoh, and passed through the whole land of Egypt.

47And in the seven years of plenty the land brought forth by handfuls.

48And he gathered up all the food of the seven years that was in the land of Egypt, and put the food in the cities; the food of the fields of the city, which were round about it, he laid up in it.

49And Joseph laid up corn as sand of the sea exceeding much, until they left off numbering; for it was without number.

50And to Joseph were born two sons before the year of famine came, whom Asnath the daughter of Potipherah the priest in On bore to him.

51And Joseph called the name of the firstborn Manasseh — For 1God has made me forget all my toil, and all my father's house.

52And the name of the second he called Ephraim — For 2God has caused me to be fruitful in the land of my affliction.

53And the seven years of plenty that were in the land of Egypt were ended;

54and the seven years of the dearth began to come, according as Joseph had said. And there was dearth in all lands; but in all the land of Egypt there was bread.

55And all the land of Egypt suffered from the dearth. And the people cried to Pharaoh for bread; and Pharaoh said to all the Egyptians, Go to Joseph: what he says to you, that do.

56And the famine was on all the earth. And Joseph opened every place in which there was [provision], and sold grain to the Egyptians; and the famine was grievous in the land of Egypt.
