Genesis 48:17-22
17When JosephH3130 sawH7200 that his fatherH1 laid his rightH3225 handH3027 on the headH7218 of EphraimH669, it was evilH7489 in his eyesH5869; and he took holdH8551 of his father's handH3027 to removeH5493 it from Ephraim's headH7218 to Manasseh's headH7218. 18And JosephH3130 saidH559 to his fatherH1, Not soH3651, my fatherH1, for this is the firstbornH1060: putH7760 thy rightH3225 handH3225 on his headH7218. 19But his fatherH1 refusedH3985 and saidH559, I knowH3045, my sonH1121, I knowH3045: he alsoH1571 will becomeH1961 a peopleH5971, and he alsoH1571 will beH1961 greatH1431; but truly his youngerH6996 brotherH251 will beH1961 greaterH1431 than he; and his seedH2233 will becomeH1961 the fulness of nationsH1471. 20And he blessedH1288 them that dayH3117, sayingH559, In thee will IsraelH3478 blessH1288, sayingH559, 1GodH430 makeH7760 thee as EphraimH669 and ManassehH4519! And he setH7760 EphraimH669 before ManassehH4519. 21And IsraelH3478 saidH559 to JosephH3130, Behold, I dieH4191; and 2GodH430 will beH1961 with you, and bringH7725 you again to the landH776 of your fathersH1. 22And I have givenH5414 to thee oneH259 tract [of land] above thy brethren, which I tookH3947 out of the handH3027 of the AmoriteH567 with my swordH2719 and with my bowH7198.
