and he said to them,“ Can we find anyone like this, a man who has God’s spirit in him?”So Pharaoh said to Joseph,“ Since God has made all this known to you, there is no one as discerning and wise as you are.You will be over my house, and all my people will obey your commands. Only I, as king, will be greater than you.”Pharaoh also said to Joseph,“ See, I am placing you over all the land of Egypt.”Pharaoh removed his signet ring from his hand and put it on Joseph’s hand, clothed him with fine linen garments, and placed a gold chain around his neck.He had Joseph ride in his second chariot, and servants called out before him,“ Make way!” So he placed him over all the land of Egypt.Pharaoh said to Joseph,“ I am Pharaoh and no one will be able to raise his hand or foot in all the land of Egypt without your permission.”Pharaoh gave Joseph the name Zaphenath-paneah and gave him a wife, Asenath daughter of Potiphera, priest at On. And Joseph went throughout the land of Egypt.Joseph was thirty years old when he entered the service of Pharaoh king of Egypt. Joseph left Pharaoh’s presence and traveled throughout the land of Egypt.During the seven years of abundance the land produced outstanding harvests.Joseph gathered all the excess food in the land of Egypt during the seven years and put it in the cities. He put the food in every city from the fields around it.So Joseph stored up grain in such abundance— like the sand of the sea— that he stopped measuring it because it was beyond measure.Two sons were born to Joseph before the years of famine arrived. Asenath daughter of Potiphera, priest at On, bore them to him.Joseph named the firstborn Manasseh and said,“ God has made me forget all my hardship and my whole family.”And the second son he named Ephraim and said,“ God has made me fruitful in the land of my affliction.”Then the seven years of abundance in the land of Egypt came to an end,and the seven years of famine began, just as Joseph had said. There was famine in every land, but in the whole land of Egypt there was food.When the whole land of Egypt was stricken with famine, the people cried out to Pharaoh for food. Pharaoh told all Egypt,“ Go to Joseph and do whatever he tells you.”Now the famine had spread across the whole region, so Joseph opened all the storehouses and sold grain to the Egyptians, for the famine was severe in the land of Egypt.Every land came to Joseph in Egypt to buy grain, for the famine was severe in every land.

How painful honest words can be! But what does your rebuke prove?

A word spoken at the right time is like gold apples in silver settings.A wise correction to a receptive ear is like a gold ring or an ornament of gold.

Then King Nebuchadnezzar fell facedown, worshiped Daniel, and gave orders to present an offering and incense to him.The king said to Daniel,“ Your God is indeed God of gods, Lord of kings, and a revealer of mysteries, since you were able to reveal this mystery.”Then the king promoted Daniel and gave him many generous gifts. He made him ruler over the entire province of Babylon and chief governor over all the wise men of Babylon.

Then the scribe said to him,“ You are right, teacher. You have correctly said that he is one, and there is no one else except him.And to love him with all your heart, with all your understanding, and with all your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself, is far more important than all the burnt offerings and sacrifices.”When Jesus saw that he answered wisely, he said to him,“ You are not far from the kingdom of God.” And no one dared to question him any longer.

Jesus told them,“ Give to Caesar the things that are Caesar’s, and to God the things that are God’s.” And they were utterly amazed at him.Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to him and questioned him:

The reflections of the heart belong to mankind, but the answer of the tongue is from the LORD.
