The Lord gives wisdom. Knowledge and understanding come from his mouth.

The Lord will save me from every evil attack. He will bring me safely to his heavenly kingdom. Give him glory for ever and ever. Amen.

Then you will find favor and a good name in the eyes of God and people.

Joseph was the governor of the land. He was the one who sold grain to all its people. When Joseph’s brothers arrived, they bowed down to him with their faces to the ground.

Then Judah went up to him. He said,“ Please, sir. Let me speak a word to you. Don’t be angry with me, even though you are equal to Pharaoh himself.

I was patient while I waited for the Lord. He turned to me and heard my cry for help.I was sliding down into the pit of death, and he pulled me out. He brought me up out of the mud and dirt. He set my feet on a rock. He gave me a firm place to stand on.He gave me a new song to sing. It is a hymn of praise to our God. Many people will see and have respect for the Lord. They will put their trust in him.

A young Hebrew servant was there with us. He was a servant of the captain of the guard. We told him our dreams. And he explained them to us. He told each of us the meaning of our dreams.Things turned out exactly as he said they would. I was given back my job. The other man had a pole stuck through his body.”So Pharaoh sent for Joseph. He was quickly brought out of the prison. Joseph shaved and changed his clothes. Then he came to Pharaoh.Pharaoh said to Joseph,“ I had a dream. No one can tell me what it means. But I’ve heard that when you hear a dream you can explain it.”“ I can’t do it,” Joseph replied to Pharaoh.“ But God will give Pharaoh the answer he wants.”Then Pharaoh told Joseph what he had dreamed. He said,“ I was standing on the bank of the Nile River.Seven cows came up out of the river. They were fat and looked healthy. They were eating the tall grass growing along the river.After them, seven other cows came up. They were bony and very ugly and thin. I had never seen such ugly cows in the whole land of Egypt.The thin, ugly cows ate up the seven fat cows that came up first.But no one could tell that the thin cows had eaten the fat cows. That’s because the thin cows looked just as ugly as they had before. Then I woke up.“ In my dream I also saw seven heads of grain. They were full and good. They were all growing on one stem.After them, seven other heads of grain came up. They were weak and thin and dried up by the east wind.The thin heads of grain swallowed up the seven good heads. I told my dream to the magicians. But none of them could explain it to me.”Then Joseph said to Pharaoh,“ Both of Pharaoh’s dreams have the same meaning. God has shown Pharaoh what he is about to do.The seven good cows are seven years. And the seven good heads of grain are seven years. Both dreams mean the same thing.The seven thin, ugly cows that came up later are seven years. So are the seven worthless heads of grain dried up by the east wind. They are seven years when there won’t be enough food.“ It’s just as I said to Pharaoh. God has shown Pharaoh what he’s about to do.Seven years with plenty of food are coming to the whole land of Egypt.But seven years when there won’t be enough food will follow them. Then everyone will forget about all the food Egypt had. Terrible hunger will destroy the land.There won’t be anything left to remind people of the years when there was plenty of food in the land. That’s how bad the hunger that follows will be.God gave the dream to Pharaoh in two forms. That’s because the matter has been firmly decided by God. And it’s because God will do it soon.“ So Pharaoh should look for a wise and understanding man. He should put him in charge of the land of Egypt.Pharaoh should appoint officials to be in charge of the land. They should take a fifth of the harvest in Egypt during the seven years when there’s plenty of food.They should collect all the extra food of the good years that are coming. Pharaoh should give them authority to store up the grain. They should keep it in the cities for food.The grain should be stored up for the country to use later. It will be needed during the seven years when there isn’t enough food in Egypt. Then the country won’t be destroyed just because it doesn’t have enough food.”The plan seemed good to Pharaoh and all his officials.So Pharaoh said to them,“ The spirit of God is in this man. We can’t find anyone else like him, can we?”Then Pharaoh said to Joseph,“ God has made all this known to you. No one is as wise and understanding as you are.You will be in charge of my palace. All my people must obey your orders. I will be greater than you only because I’m the one who sits on the throne.”So Pharaoh said to Joseph,“ I’m putting you in charge of the whole land of Egypt.”Then Pharaoh took from his finger the ring he used to give his official stamp. He put it on Joseph’s finger. He dressed him in robes made out of fine linen. He put a gold chain around Joseph’s neck.He also had him ride in a chariot. Joseph was now next in command after Pharaoh. People went in front of Joseph and shouted,“ Get down on your knees!” By doing all these things, Pharaoh put Joseph in charge of the whole land of Egypt.Then Pharaoh said to Joseph,“ I am Pharaoh. But unless you give an order, no one will do anything in the whole land of Egypt.”Pharaoh gave Joseph the name Zaphenath- Paneah. He gave Joseph a wife. She was Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera. Potiphera was the priest of On. Joseph traveled all over the land of Egypt.Joseph was 30 years old when he began serving Pharaoh, the king of Egypt. He left Pharaoh’s palace and traveled all over Egypt.

As you know, we think that people who don’t give up are blessed. You have heard that Job was patient. And you have seen what the Lord finally did for him. The Lord is full of tender mercy and loving concern.

The Lord helps them and saves them. He saves them from sinful people because they go to him for safety.

I answered,“ Sir, you know.” He said,“ They are the ones who have come out of the time of terrible suffering. They have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.

He was in prison until what he said would happen came true. The word of the Lord proved that he was right.The king of Egypt sent for Joseph and let him out of prison. The ruler of many nations set him free.He put Joseph in charge of his palace. He made him ruler over everything he owned.Joseph was in charge of teaching the princes. He taught the elders how to think and live wisely.

Godly people cry out, and the Lord hears them. He saves them from all their troubles.The Lord is close to those whose hearts have been broken. He saves those whose spirits have been crushed.The person who does what is right may have many troubles. But the Lord saves him from all of them.

He has not forgotten the one who is hurting. He has not turned away from his suffering. He has not turned his face away from him. He has listened to his cry for help.

“ So then, it wasn’t you who sent me here. It was God. He made me like a father to Pharaoh. He made me master of Pharaoh’s entire house. God made me ruler of the whole land of Egypt.Now hurry back to my father. Say to him,‘ Your son Joseph says,“ God has made me master of the whole land of Egypt. Come down to me. Don’t waste any time.

When the way you live pleases the Lord, he makes even your enemies live at peace with you.

He is the Angel who has saved me from all harm. May he bless these boys. May they be called by my name. May they also be called by the names of my grandfather Abraham and my father Isaac. And may the number of them greatly increase on the earth.”
