401You shall be overH5921 my houseH1004, and accordingH5921 to your 2commandH6310 allH3605 my peopleH5971 shall 3doH5401 homageH5401; onlyH7534 in the throneH3678 I will be greaterH1431 thanH4480 you.” 41PharaohH6547 saidH559 to JosephH3130, “SeeH7200, I have setH5414 you 4overH5921 allH3605 the landH776 of EgyptH4714.” 42Then PharaohH6547 5tookH5493 offH5493 his signetH2885 ringH2885 from his handH3027 and putH5414 it on Joseph’sH3130 handH3027, and clothedH3847 him in garmentsH899 of fineH8336 linenH8336 and 6putH7760 the goldH2091 necklaceH7242 aroundH5921 his neckH6677. 43He had him rideH7392 in 7his secondH4932 chariotH4818; and they proclaimedH7121 beforeH6440 him, “8BowH86 the kneeH86!” And he setH5414 him overH5921 allH3605 the landH776 of EgyptH4714. 44Moreover, PharaohH6547 saidH559 to JosephH3130, “Though I am PharaohH6547, yet 9withoutH1107 10your permission noH3808 oneH376 shall raiseH7311 his handH3027 or footH7272 in allH3605 the landH776 of EgyptH4714.” 45Then PharaohH6547 namedH7121H8034 JosephH3130 11Zaphenath-paneahH6847; and he gaveH5414 him AsenathH621, the daughterH1323 of PotipheraH6319 priestH3548 of 1213OnH204, as his wifeH802. And JosephH3130 wentH3318 forthH3318 overH5921 the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
46Now JosephH3130 was 14thirtyH7970 yearsH8141 oldH1121 when he 15stoodH5975 beforeH6440 PharaohH6547, kingH4428 of EgyptH4714. And JosephH3130 wentH3318 out from the presenceH6440 of PharaohH6547 and wentH5674 throughH5674 allH3605 the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
