Genesis 48:19-20

NHEB(i) 19 But his father refused, and said, "I know, my son, I know. He also will become a people, and he also will be great. However, his younger brother will be greater than he, and his descendants will become a multitude of nations." 20 So he blessed them that day, saying, "By you Israel will pronounce blessing, saying, x91God make you as Ephraim and as Manasseh.ʼ" Thus he put Ephraim before Manasseh.
