Genesis 48:8-20

8And IsraelH3478 beheldH7200 Joseph’sH3130 sonsH1121, and saidH559, Who are these? 9And JosephH3130 saidH559 to his fatherH1, They are my sonsH1121, whom GodH430 hath givenH5414 me in this place . And he saidH559, Bring themH3947, I pray thee, to me, and I will blessH1288 them. 10Now the eyesH5869 of IsraelH3478 were dimH3513 for ageH2207, so that he couldH3201 not seeH7200. And he brought them nearH5066 to him; and he kissedH5401 them, and embracedH2263 them.1 11And IsraelH3478 saidH559 to JosephH3130, I had not thoughtH6419 to seeH7200 thy faceH6440: and, lo, GodH430 hath shownH7200 me also thy seedH2233. 12And JosephH3130 brought them outH3318 from betweenH5973 his kneesH1290, and he bowedH7812 himself with his faceH639 to the earthH776. 13And JosephH3130 tookH3947 them bothH8147, EphraimH669 in his right handH3225 toward Israel’sH3478 left handH8040, and ManassehH4519 in his left handH8040 toward Israel’sH3478 right handH3225, and brought them nearH5066 to him. 14And IsraelH3478 stretched outH7971 his right handH3225, and laidH7896 it upon Ephraim’sH669 headH7218, who was the youngerH6810, and his left handH8040 upon Manasseh’sH4519 headH7218, guidingH7919 his handsH3027 knowinglyH7919; for ManassehH4519 was the firstbornH1060. 15And he blessedH1288 JosephH3130, and saidH559, GodH430, beforeH6440 whom my fathersH1 AbrahamH85 and IsaacH3327 did walkH1980, the GodH430 who hath fedH7462 me all my life longH5750 to this dayH3117, 16The AngelH4397 who hath redeemedH1350 me from all evilH7451, blessH1288 the ladsH5288; and let my nameH8034 be namedH7121 on them, and the nameH8034 of my fathersH1 AbrahamH85 and IsaacH3327; and let them growH1711 into a multitudeH7230 in the midstH7130 of the earthH776.2 17And when JosephH3130 sawH7200 that his fatherH1 laidH7896 his rightH3225 handH3027 upon the headH7218 of EphraimH669, it displeasedH3415H5869 him: and he liftedH8551 his father’sH1 handH3027, to removeH5493 it from Ephraim’sH669 headH7218 to Manasseh’sH4519 headH7218.3 18And JosephH3130 saidH559 to his fatherH1, Not so, my fatherH1: for this is the firstbornH1060; putH7760 thy right handH3225 upon his headH7218. 19And his fatherH1 refusedH3985, and saidH559, I knowH3045 it, my sonH1121, I knowH3045 it : he also shall become a peopleH5971, and he also shall be greatH1431: but trulyH199 his youngerH6996 brotherH251 shall be greaterH1431 than he, and his seedH2233 shall become a multitudeH4393 of nationsH1471.4 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.
