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.
