American Standard Version of 1901
Versliste
And unto Joseph were born two sons before the year of famine came, whom Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera priest of On, bare unto him.
And Joseph called the name of the first-born {That is, Making to forget.}Manasseh: For, said he, God hath made me forget all my toil, and all my father's house.
And the name of the second called he {From a Hebrew word signifying to be fruitful.}Ephraim: For God hath made me fruitful in the land of my affliction.
Behold, I and the children whom Jehovah hath given me are for signs and for wonders in Israel from Jehovah of hosts, who dwelleth in mount Zion.
And again, I will put my trust in him. And again, {Isaiah 8:17 f.}Behold, I and the children whom God hath given me.
{Or, He shall see and be satisfied with the travil &c.}He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: {Or, by his knowledge}by the knowledge of himself shall my righteous servant {Or, make many righteous}justify many; and he shall bear their iniquities.
and I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and be thou a blessing:
