Genesis 41:50-52

50Now before the year of famine came, 1two sons were born to Joseph, whom Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera priest of 2On, bore to him. 51Joseph named the firstborn 3Manasseh, “For,” he said, “God has made me forget all my trouble and all my father’s household.” 52He named the second 4Ephraim, “For,” he said, “5God has made me fruitful in the land of my affliction.”
