3Then JacobH3290 saidH559 to JosephH3130, “12GodH410 AlmightyH7706 appearedH7200 to me at 3LuzH3870 in the landH776 of CanaanH3667 and blessedH1288 me,
4and He saidH559 to me, ‘BeholdH2009, I will makeH6509 you fruitfulH6509 and numerousH7235, and I will makeH5414 you a companyH6951 of peoplesH5971, and will giveH5414 thisH2088 landH776 to your 4descendantsH2233 afterH310 you for 5an everlastingH5769 possessionH272.’
5NowH6258 your twoH8147 sonsH1121, who were bornH3205 to you in the landH776 of EgyptH4714 beforeH5704 I cameH935 to you in EgyptH4714, are mine; 6EphraimH669 and ManassehH4519 shall be mine, as 7ReubenH7205 and SimeonH8095 are.
6But your offspringH4138 that 8have been bornH3205 afterH310 them shall be yours; they shall be calledH7121 by the 9namesH8034 of their brothersH251 in their inheritanceH5159.
