Genesis 48:12-14

12Then Joseph 1took them from his knees, and 2bowed with his face to the ground.

13And Joseph took them both, Ephraim with his right hand toward Israel’s left, and Manasseh with his left hand toward Israel’s right, and brought them close to him.

14But Israel reached out his right hand and placed it on the head of Ephraim, who was the younger, and his left hand on Manasseh’s head, crossing his hands, although 3Manasseh was the firstborn.
