But the LORD was with Joseph, and showed him mercy, and gave him favor in the sight of the keeper of the prison.

And said, My Lord, if now I have found favor in your sight, pass not away, I pray you, from your servant:

Behold now, your servant has found grace in your sight, and you have magnified your mercy, which you have showed unto me in saving my life; and I cannot escape to the mountain, lest some evil overtake me, and I die:

And I have oxen, and donkeys, flocks, and menservants, and maidservants: and I have sent to tell my lord, that I may find grace in your sight.

And he said, What mean you by all this drove which I met? And he said, These are to find grace in the sight of my lord.

And Jacob said, Nay, I pray you, if now I have found grace in your sight, then receive my present at my hand: for therefore I have seen your face, as though I had seen the face of God, and you were pleased with me.

And Saul sent to Jesse, saying, Let David, I pray you, stand before me; for he has found favor in my sight.

Then the king said unto me, For what do you make request? So I prayed to the God of heaven.

And I said unto the king, If it pleases the king, and if your servant has found favor in your sight, that you would send me unto Judah, unto the city of my fathers’ sepulchers, that I may rebuild it.

When a man's ways please the LORD, he makes even his enemies to be at peace with him.

And the keeper of the prison committed to Joseph's hand all the prisoners that were in the prison; and whatsoever they did there, he was the doer of it.

And Abram said, Lord GOD, what will you give me, seeing I go childless, and the heir of my house is this Eliezer of Damascus?

And Abraham said unto his eldest servant of his house, that ruled over all that he had, Put, I pray you, your hand under my thigh:

You shall be over my house, and according unto your word shall all my people be ruled: only in the throne will I be greater than you.

And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, See, I have set you over all the land of Egypt.

The king's favor is toward a wise servant: but his wrath is against him that causes shame.

A wise servant shall have rule over a son that causes shame, and shall have part of the inheritance among the brethren.

See you a man diligent in his business? he shall stand before kings; he shall not stand before obscure men.

Whosoever keeps the fig tree shall eat its fruit: so he that waits on his master shall be honored.

Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he has purchased with his own blood.
