Genesis 41:50-52

50And unto Joseph were born two sons before the years of famine came, which Asenath the daughter of Poti–pherah priest of On bare unto him.1

51And Joseph called the name of the firstborn Manasseh: For God, said he, hath made me forget all my toil, and all my father’s house.2

52And the name of the second called he Ephraim: For God hath caused me to be fruitful in the land of my affliction.3
