3And JacobH3290 saidH559 unto JosephH3130, GodH410 AlmightyH7706 appearedH7200 unto me at LuzH3870 in the landH776 of CanaanH3667, and blessedH1288 me, 4and saidH559 unto me, Behold, I will makeH5414 thee fruitfulH6509, and multiplyH7235 thee, and I will makeH5414 of thee a companyH6951 of peoplesH5971, and will giveH5414 this landH776 to thy seedH2233 after thee for an everlasting possessionH272. 5And nowH6258 thy twoH8147 sonsH1121, who wereH1961 bornH3205 unto thee in the landH776 of EgyptH4714 before I cameH935 unto thee into EgyptH4714, are mine; EphraimH669 and ManassehH4519, even as ReubenH7205 and SimeonH8095, shall beH1961 mine. 6And thy issue, that thou begettest after them, shall beH1961 thine; they shall beH1961 calledH7121 after the nameH8034 of their brethren in their inheritanceH5159. 7And as for me, when I cameH935 from PaddanH6307, RachelH7354 diedH4191 by me in the landH776 of CanaanH3667 in the wayH1870, when there was stillH5750 some distance to comeH935 unto EphrathH672: and I buriedH6912 her there in the wayH1870 to EphrathH672 (the same is Beth-lehem).
