40 Je t’établis sur ma maison, et tout mon peuple obéira à tes ordres. Le trône seul m’élèvera au-dessus de toi.

41 Pharaon dit à Joseph: Vois, je te donne le commandement de tout le pays d’Égypte.

42 Pharaon ôta son anneau de la main, et le mit à la main de Joseph; il le revêtit d’habits de fin lin, et lui mit un collier d’or au cou.

43 Il le fit monter sur le char qui suivait le sien; et l’on criait devant lui: A genoux! C’est ainsi que Pharaon lui donna le commandement de tout le pays d’Égypte.

44 Il dit encore à Joseph: Je suis Pharaon! Et sans toi personne ne lèvera la main ni le pied dans tout le pays d’Égypte.
