And it came to pass after [0310] these things, [1697] that [one] told [0559] Joseph, [3130] Behold, thy father [0001] [is] sick: [2470] and he took [3947] with him his two [8147] sons, [1121] Manasseh [4519] and Ephraim. [0669]

2

And [one] told [5046] Jacob, [3290] and said, [0559] Behold, thy son [1121] Joseph [3130] cometh [0935] unto thee: and Israel [3478] strengthened [2388] himself, and sat [3427] upon the bed. [4296]

3

And Jacob [3290] said [0559] unto Joseph, [3130] God [0410] Almighty [7706] appeared [7200] unto me at Luz [3870] in the land [0776] of Canaan, [3667] and blessed [1288] me,

4

And said [0559] unto me, Behold, I will make thee fruitful, [6509] and multiply [7235] thee, and I will make [5414] of thee a multitude [6951] of people; [5971] and will give [5414] this land [0776] to thy seed [2233] after [0310] thee [for] an everlasting [5769] possession. [0272]

5

And now thy two [8147] sons, [1121] Ephraim [0669] and Manasseh, [4519] which were born [3205] unto thee in the land [0776] of Egypt [4714] before [5704] I came [0935] unto thee into Egypt, [4714] [are] mine; as Reuben [7205] and Simeon, [8095] they shall be mine.

6

And thy issue, [4138] which thou begettest [3205] after [0310] them, shall be thine, [and] shall be called [7121] after [5921] the name [8034] of their brethren [0251] in their inheritance. [5159]

7

And as for me, when I came [0935] from Padan, [6307] Rachel [7354] died [4191] by me in the land [0776] of Canaan [3667] in the way, [1870] when [5750] yet [there was] but a little [3530] way [0776] to come [0935] unto Ephrath: [0672] and I buried [6912] her there in the way [1870] of Ephrath; [0672] the same [is] Bethlehem. [1035]

8

And Israel [3478] beheld [7200] Joseph's [3130] sons, [1121] and said, [0559] Who [are] these?

9

And Joseph [3130] said [0559] unto his father, [0001] They [are] my sons, [1121] whom God [0430] hath given [5414] me in this [place]. And he said, [0559] Bring them, [3947] I pray thee, unto me, and I will bless [1288] them.

10

Now the eyes [5869] of Israel [3478] were dim [3513] for age, [2207] [so that] he could [3201] not see. [7200] And he brought them near [5066] unto him; and he kissed [5401] them, and embraced [2263] them.

11

And Israel [3478] said [0559] unto Joseph, [3130] I had not thought [6419] to see [7200] thy face: [6440] and, lo, God [0430] hath shewed [7200] me also thy seed. [2233]

12

And Joseph [3130] brought them out [3318] from between [5973] his knees, [1290] and he bowed [7812] himself with his face [0639] to the earth. [0776]

13

And Joseph [3130] took [3947] them both, [8147] Ephraim [0669] in his right hand [3225] toward Israel's [3478] left hand, [8040] and Manasseh [4519] in his left hand [8040] toward Israel's [3478] right hand, [3225] and brought [them] near [5066] unto him.

14

And Israel [3478] stretched out [7971] his right hand, [3225] and laid [7896] [it] upon Ephraim's [0669] head, [7218] who [was] the younger, [6810] and his left hand [8040] upon Manasseh's [4519] head, [7218] guiding his hands [3027] wittingly; [7919] for Manasseh [4519] [was] the firstborn. [1060]

15

And he blessed [1288] Joseph, [3130] and said, [0559] God, [0430] before [6440] whom my fathers [0001] Abraham [0085] and Isaac [3327] did walk, [1980] the God [0430] which fed [7462] me all my life long [5750] unto this day, [3117]

16

The Angel [4397] which redeemed [1350] me from all evil, [7451] bless [1288] the lads; [5288] and let my name [8034] be named [7121] on them, and the name [8034] of my fathers [0001] Abraham [0085] and Isaac; [3327] and let them grow [1711] into a multitude [7230] in the midst [7130] of the earth. [0776]

17

And when Joseph [3130] saw [7200] that his father [0001] laid [7896] his right [3225] hand [3027] upon the head [7218] of Ephraim, [0669] it displeased [3415] [5869] him: and he held up [8551] his father's [0001] hand, [3027] to remove [5493] it from Ephraim's [0669] head [7218] unto Manasseh's [4519] head. [7218]

18

And Joseph [3130] said [0559] unto his father, [0001] Not so, my father: [0001] for this [is] the firstborn; [1060] put [7760] thy right hand [3225] upon his head. [7218]

19

And his father [0001] refused, [3985] and said, [0559] I know [3045] [it], my son, [1121] I know [3045] [it]: he also shall become a people, [5971] and he also shall be great: [1431] but truly [0199] his younger [6996] brother [0251] shall be greater [1431] than he, and his seed [2233] shall become a multitude [4393] of nations. [1471]

20

And he blessed [1288] them that day, [3117] saying, [0559] In thee shall Israel [3478] bless, [1288] saying, [0559] God [0430] make [7760] thee as Ephraim [0669] and as Manasseh: [4519] and he set [7760] Ephraim [0669] before [6440] Manasseh. [4519]

21

And Israel [3478] said [0559] unto Joseph, [3130] Behold, I die: [4191] but God [0430] shall be with you, and bring you again [7725] unto the land [0776] of your fathers. [0001]

22

Moreover I have given [5414] to thee one [0259] portion [7926] above thy brethren, [0251] which I took [3947] out of the hand [3027] of the Amorite [0567] with my sword [2719] and with my bow. [7198]
