17And when JosephH3130 sawH7200 that his fatherH1 laidH7896 his rightH3225 handH3027 uponH5921 the headH7218 of EphraimH669, it displeasedH7489 him: and he heldH8551 upH7200 his father’sH1 handH3027, to removeH5493 it from Ephraim’sH669 headH7218 unto Manasseh’sH4519 headH7218. 18And JosephH3130 saidH559 unto his fatherH1, NotH3808 soH3651, my fatherH1: for this is the firstbornH1060; putH7760 thy rightH3225 handH3225 uponH5921 his headH7218. 19And his fatherH1 refusedH3985, and saidH559, I knowH3045 it, my sonH1121, I knowH3045 it: he also shall becomeH1961 a peopleH5971, and he also shall be greatH1431: howbeit his youngerH6996 brotherH251 shall be greaterH1431 thanH4480 he, and his seedH2233 shall becomeH1961 a multitudeH4393 of nationsH1471. 20And he blessedH1288 them that dayH3117, sayingH559, In thee shall IsraelH3478 blessH1288, sayingH559, GodH430 makeH7760 thee as EphraimH669 and as ManassehH4519: and he setH7760 EphraimH669 beforeH6440 ManassehH4519. 21And IsraelH3478 saidH559 unto JosephH3130, BeholdH2009, I dieH4191: but GodH430 shall be with youH7725, and bringH7725 youH7725 againH7725 unto the landH776 of your fathersH1. 22Moreover I have givenH5414 to thee one portionH7926 aboveH5921 thy brethrenH251, whichH834 I tookH3947 outH5921 of the handH3027 of the AmoriteH567 with my swordH2719 and with my bowH7198.
