Genesis 48 (kjv)

And it came to pass after^H310 these things^H1697, that one told^H559 Joseph^H3130, Behold, thy father^H1 is sick^H2470: and he took^H3947 with him his two^H8147 sons^H1121, Manasseh^H4519 and Ephraim^H669.

²And one told^H5046 Jacob^H3290, and said^H559, Behold, thy son^H1121 Joseph^H3130 cometh^H935 unto thee: and Israel^H3478 strengthened^H2388 himself, and sat^H3427 upon the bed^H4296.

³And Jacob^H3290 said^H559 unto Joseph^H3130, God^H410 Almighty^H7706 appeared^H7200 unto me at Luz^H3870 in the land^H776 of Canaan^H3667, and blessed^H1288 me,⁴And said^H559 unto me, Behold, I will make thee fruitful^H6509, and multiply^H7235 thee, and I will make^H5414 of thee a multitude^H6951 of people^H5971; and will give^H5414 this land^H776 to thy seed^H2233 after thee^H310 for an everlasting^H5769 possession^H272.

⁵And now thy two^H8147 sons^H1121, Ephraim^H669 and Manasseh^H4519, which were born^H3205 unto thee in the land^H776 of Egypt^H4714 before^H5704 I came^H935 unto thee into Egypt^H4714, are mine; as Reuben^H7205 and Simeon^H8095, they shall be mine.⁶And thy issue^H4138, which thou begettest^H3205 after^H310 them, shall be thine, and shall be called^H7121 after^H5921 the name^H8034 of their brethren^H251 in their inheritance^H5159.

⁷And as for me, when I came^H935 from Padan^H6307, Rachel^H7354 died^H4191 by me in the land^H776 of Canaan^H3667 in the way^H1870, when^H5750 yet there was but a little^H3530 way^H776 to come^H935 unto Ephrath^H672: and I buried her^H6912 there in the way^H1870 of Ephrath^H672; the same is Bethlehem^H1035.

⁸And Israel^H3478 beheld^H7200 Joseph's^H3130 sons^H1121, and said^H559, Who are these?⁹And Joseph^H3130 said^H559 unto his father^H1, They are my sons^H1121, whom God^H430 hath given^H5414 me in this place. And he said^H559, Bring them^H3947, I pray thee, unto me, and I will bless^H1288 them.¹⁰Now the eyes^H5869 of Israel^H3478 were dim^H3513 for age^H2207, so that he could^H3201 not see^H7200. And he brought them near^H5066 unto him; and he kissed^H5401 them, and embraced^H2263 them.¹¹And Israel^H3478 said^H559 unto Joseph^H3130, I had not thought^H6419 to see^H7200 thy face^H6440: and, lo, God^H430 hath shewed^H7200 me also thy seed^H2233.¹²And Joseph^H3130 brought them out^H3318 from between^H5973 his knees^H1290, and he bowed^H7812 himself with his face^H639 to the earth^H776.¹³And Joseph^H3130 took^H3947 them both^H8147, Ephraim^H669 in his right hand^H3225 toward Israel's^H3478 left hand^H8040, and Manasseh^H4519 in his left hand^H8040 toward Israel's^H3478 right hand^H3225, and brought them near^H5066 unto him.¹⁴And Israel^H3478 stretched out^H7971 his right hand^H3225, and laid^H7896 it upon Ephraim's^H669 head^H7218, who was the younger^H6810, and his left hand^H8040 upon Manasseh's^H4519 head^H7218, guiding^H7919 his hands^H3027 wittingly^H7919; for Manasseh^H4519 was the firstborn^H1060.¹⁵And he blessed^H1288 Joseph^H3130, and said^H559, God^H430, before^H6440 whom my fathers^H1 Abraham^H85 and Isaac^H3327 did walk^H1980, the God^H430 which fed^H7462 me all my life long^H5750 unto this day^H3117,¹⁶The Angel^H4397 which redeemed^H1350 me from all evil^H7451, bless^H1288 the lads^H5288; and let my name^H8034 be named^H7121 on them, and the name^H8034 of my fathers^H1 Abraham^H85 and Isaac^H3327; and let them grow^H1711 into a multitude^H7230 in the midst^H7130 of the earth^H776.

¹⁷And when Joseph^H3130 saw^H7200 that his father^H1 laid^H7896 his right^H3225 hand^H3027 upon the head^H7218 of Ephraim^H669, it displeased^{H3415 H5869} him: and he held up^H8551 his father's^H1 hand^H3027, to remove^H5493 it from Ephraim's^H669 head^H7218 unto Manasseh's^H4519 head^H7218.¹⁸And Joseph^H3130 said^H559 unto his father^H1, Not so, my father^H1: for this is the firstborn^H1060; put^H7760 thy right hand^H3225 upon his head^H7218.¹⁹And his father^H1 refused^H3985, and said^H559, I know^H3045 it, my son^H1121, I know^H3045 it: he also shall become a people^H5971, and he also shall be great^H1431: but truly^H199 his younger^H6996 brother^H251 shall be greater^H1431 than he, and his seed^H2233 shall become a multitude^H4393 of nations^H1471.²⁰And he blessed^H1288 them that day^H3117, saying^H559, In thee shall Israel^H3478 bless^H1288, saying^H559, God^H430 make^H7760 thee as Ephraim^H669 and as Manasseh^H4519: and he set^H7760 Ephraim^H669 before^H6440 Manasseh^H4519.

²¹And Israel^H3478 said^H559 unto Joseph^H3130, Behold, I die^H4191: but God^H430 shall be with you, and bring you again^H7725 unto the land^H776 of your fathers^H1.²²Moreover I have given^H5414 to thee one^H259 portion^H7926 above thy brethren^H251, which I took^H3947 out of the hand^H3027 of the Amorite^H567 with my sword^H2719 and with my bow^H7198.
