And it came to pass afterH310 these thingsH1697, that one toldH559 JosephH3130, Behold, thy fatherH1 is sickH2470: and he tookH3947 with him his twoH8147 sonsH1121, ManassehH4519 and EphraimH669.
And one toldH5046 JacobH3290, and saidH559, Behold, thy sonH1121 JosephH3130 comethH935 unto thee: and IsraelH3478 strengthenedH2388 himself, and satH3427 upon the bedH4296.
And JacobH3290 saidH559 unto JosephH3130, GodH410 AlmightyH7706 appearedH7200 unto me at LuzH3870 in the landH776 of CanaanH3667, and blessedH1288 me,
And saidH559 unto me, Behold, I will make thee fruitfulH6509, and multiplyH7235 thee, and I will makeH5414 of thee a multitudeH6951 of peopleH5971; and will giveH5414 this landH776 to thy seedH2233 after theeH310 for an everlastingH5769 possessionH272.
And now thy twoH8147 sonsH1121, EphraimH669 and ManassehH4519, which were bornH3205 unto thee in the landH776 of EgyptH4714 beforeH5704 I cameH935 unto thee into EgyptH4714, are mine; as ReubenH7205 and SimeonH8095, they shall be mine.
And thy issueH4138, which thou begettestH3205 afterH310 them, shall be thine, and shall be calledH7121 afterH5921 the nameH8034 of their brethrenH251 in their inheritanceH5159.
And as for me, when I cameH935 from PadanH6307, RachelH7354 diedH4191 by me in the landH776 of CanaanH3667 in the wayH1870, whenH5750 yet there was but a littleH3530 wayH776 to comeH935 unto EphrathH672: and I buried herH6912 there in the wayH1870 of EphrathH672; the same is BethlehemH1035.
And IsraelH3478 beheldH7200 Joseph'sH3130 sonsH1121, and saidH559, Who are these?
And JosephH3130 saidH559 unto his fatherH1, They are my sonsH1121, whom GodH430 hath givenH5414 me in this place. And he saidH559, Bring themH3947, I pray thee, unto me, and I will blessH1288 them.
Now the eyesH5869 of IsraelH3478 were dimH3513 for ageH2207, so that he couldH3201 not seeH7200. And he brought them nearH5066 unto him; and he kissedH5401 them, and embracedH2263 them. {dim: Heb. heavy}
And IsraelH3478 saidH559 unto JosephH3130, I had not thoughtH6419 to seeH7200 thy faceH6440: and, lo, GodH430 hath shewedH7200 me also thy seedH2233.
And JosephH3130 brought them outH3318 from betweenH5973 his kneesH1290, and he bowedH7812 himself with his faceH639 to the earthH776.
And 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 unto him.
And 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 wittinglyH7919; for ManassehH4519 was the firstbornH1060.
And he blessedH1288 JosephH3130, and saidH559, GodH430, beforeH6440 whom my fathersH1 AbrahamH85 and IsaacH3327 did walkH1980, the GodH430 which fedH7462 me all my life longH5750 unto this dayH3117,
The AngelH4397 which 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. {grow: Heb. as fishes do increase}
And when JosephH3130 sawH7200 that his fatherH1 laidH7896 his rightH3225 handH3027 upon the headH7218 of EphraimH669, it displeasedH3415+H5869 him: and he held upH8551 his father'sH1 handH3027, to removeH5493 it from Ephraim'sH669 headH7218 unto Manasseh'sH4519 headH7218. {displeased…: was evil in his eyes}
And JosephH3130 saidH559 unto his fatherH1, Not so, my fatherH1: for this is the firstbornH1060; putH7760 thy right handH3225 upon his headH7218.
And 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. {multitude: Heb. fulness}
And 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.
And IsraelH3478 saidH559 unto JosephH3130, Behold, I dieH4191: but GodH430 shall be with you, and bring you againH7725 unto the landH776 of your fathersH1.
Moreover I have givenH5414 to thee oneH259 portionH7926 above thy brethrenH251, which I tookH3947 out of the handH3027 of the AmoriteH567 with my swordH2719 and with my bowH7198.

And when AbramH87 was ninetyH8673+H8141 yearsH8141 oldH1121 and nineH8672, the LORDH3068 appearedH7200 to AbramH87, and saidH559 unto him, I am the AlmightyH7706 GodH410; walkH1980 before meH6440, and be thou perfectH8549. {perfect: or, upright, or, sincere}
And he dreamedH2492, and behold a ladderH5551 set upH5324 on the earthH776, and the top of itH7218 reachedH5060 to heavenH8064: and behold the angelsH4397 of GodH430 ascendingH5927 and descendingH3381 on it.
And, behold, the LORDH3068 stoodH5324 above it, and saidH559, I am the LORDH3068 GodH430 of AbrahamH85 thy fatherH1, and the GodH430 of IsaacH3327: the landH776 whereon thou liestH7901, to thee will I give itH5414, and to thy seedH2233;
And thy seedH2233 shall be as the dustH6083 of the earthH776, and thou shalt spread abroadH6555 to the westH3220, and to the eastH6924, and to the northH6828, and to the southH5045: and in thee and in thy seedH2233 shall all the familiesH4940 of the earthH127 be blessedH1288. {spread…: Heb. break forth}
And, behold, I am with thee, and will keepH8104 thee in all places whitherH834 thou goestH3212, and will bring thee againH7725 into this landH127; for I will not leaveH5800 thee, untilH834 I have doneH6213 that which I have spokenH1696 to thee of.
And JacobH3290 awakedH3364 out of his sleepH8142, and he saidH559, SurelyH403 the LORDH3068 isH3426 in this placeH4725; and I knewH3045 it not.
And he was afraidH3372, and saidH559, How dreadfulH3372 is this placeH4725! this is none other but the houseH1004 of GodH430, and this is the gateH8179 of heavenH8064.
And JacobH3290 rose up earlyH7925 in the morningH1242, and tookH3947 the stoneH68 that he had putH7760 for his pillowsH4763, and set it upH7760 for a pillarH4676, and pouredH3332 oilH8081 upon the top of itH7218.
And he calledH7121 the nameH8034 of that placeH4725 BethelH1008: butH199 the nameH8034 of that cityH5892 was called LuzH3870 at the firstH7223. {Bethel: that is, The house of God}
And the houseH1004 of JosephH3130 sent to descryH8446 BethelH1008. (Now the nameH8034 of the cityH5892 beforeH6440 was LuzH3870.)
And GodH410 AlmightyH7706 blessH1288 thee, and make thee fruitfulH6509, and multiplyH7235 thee, that thou mayest be a multitudeH6951 of peopleH5971; {a multitude…: Heb. an assembly of people}
So JacobH3290 cameH935 to LuzH3870, which is in the landH776 of CanaanH3667, that is, BethelH1008, he and all the peopleH5971 that were with him.
And GodH430 saidH559 unto him, I am GodH410 AlmightyH7706: be fruitfulH6509 and multiplyH7235; a nationH1471 and a companyH6951 of nationsH1471 shall be of thee, and kingsH4428 shall comeH3318 out of thy loinsH2504;
And he builtH1129 there an altarH4196, and calledH7121 the placeH4725 ElbethelH416: because there GodH430 appearedH1540 unto him, when he fledH1272 from the faceH6440 of his brotherH251. {Elbethel: that is, The God of Bethel}
And I appearedH7200 unto AbrahamH85, unto IsaacH3327, and unto JacobH3290, by the name of GodH410 AlmightyH7706, but by my nameH8034 JEHOVAHH3068 was I not knownH3045 to them.
And GodH430 appearedH7200 unto JacobH3290 again, when he cameH935 out of PadanaramH6307, and blessedH1288 him.
HavingG2192 the gloryG1391 of GodG2316: andG2532 herG846 lightG5458 was likeG3664 unto a stoneG3037 most preciousG5093, even likeG5613 a jasperG2393 stoneG3037, clear as crystalG2929;
And GodH430 saidH559 unto him, I am GodH410 AlmightyH7706: be fruitfulH6509 and multiplyH7235; a nationH1471 and a companyH6951 of nationsH1471 shall be of thee, and kingsH4428 shall comeH3318 out of thy loinsH2504;
