25 Ɛnna Yosef ka kyerɛɛ Farao sɛ, "Wo daeɛ mmienu a wososoeɛ no nyinaa nkyerɛaseɛ yɛ pɛ.

37 Farao ne ne mpanimfoɔ no gyee asɛm a Yosef ka kyerɛɛ wɔn no nyinaa too mu. 38 Ɛberɛ a wɔredwennwene onipa ko a ɛsɛ sɛ wɔde saa adwuma kɛseɛ yi hyɛ ne nsa no ho no, Farao bisaa sɛ, "Hwan koraa na ɔbɛtumi ayɛ adwuma kɛseɛ a ɛte sɛɛ yi asene Yosef?

39 Afei, Farao danee nʼani ka kyerɛɛ Yosef sɛ, "Onyankopɔn ayi saa daeɛ yi ne nʼasekyerɛ akyerɛ wo yi, hwan bio na ɔyɛ onyansafoɔ a ɔwɔ nhunumu sene wo wɔ Misraim ɔman yi mu! 40 Ɛnnɛ, mede saa adwuma kɛseɛ yi nyinaa hyɛ wo nsa.

41 Enti, Farao ka kyerɛɛ Yosef sɛ, "Ɛfiri ɛnnɛ de rekorɔ, mede Misraim asase nyinaa ahyɛ wo nsa." 42 Afei, Farao worɔɔ ne nsɔano kawa de hyɛɛ Yosef nsa. Ɔde serekye batakari papa bi hyɛɛ Yosef, de sika ntweaban yan no. 43 Ɔmaa Yosef teaseɛnam tenaa mu sɛ nʼabadiakyire. Baabiara a Yosef bɛkɔ no, na nnipa di nʼanim teateaam sɛ, "monkoto no!"

44 Afei, Farao ka kyerɛɛ Yosef sɛ, "Mene Farao Misraimhene deɛ, nanso obiara ntumi mfiri wʼakyi nyɛ biribiara wɔ Misraiman yi mu baabiara, gye sɛ woama ho kwan ansa." 45 Farao maa Yosef ahene din sɛ Safnat-Panea.

46 Ɛberɛ a Yosef kɔɔ ɔhene Farao adwa ase no, na wadi mfirinhyia aduasa.
