Genesis 41:33-37

33“Pharaoh should look for a wise and intelligent man and put him in charge of Egypt.

34Make arrangements to appoint supervisors over the land to take a fifth of Egypt’s harvest during the seven good years.

35Have them collect all the food during these good years and store up grain under Pharaoh’s control, to be kept for food in the cities.

36This food will be a reserve supply for our country during the seven years of famine that will happen in Egypt. Then the land will not be ruined by the famine.”

37Pharaoh and all his servants liked the idea.
