5 H8147 Now your two H1121 sons, H3205 who were born H776 to you in the land H4714 of Egypt H5704 before H935 I came H4714 to you into Egypt, H669 are mine; Ephraim H4519 and Manasseh, H7205 even as Reuben H8095 and Simeon, will be mine.

6 H4138 Your issue, H3205 whom you become the father H310 of after H7121 them, will be yours. They will be called H5921 after H8034 the name H251 of their brothers H5159 in their inheritance.

7 H935 As for me, when I came H6307 from Paddan, H7354 Rachel H4191 died H776 by me in the land H3667 of Canaan H1870 in the way, H5750 when H3530 there was still some H776 distance H935 to come H672 to Ephrath, H6912 and I buried her H1870 there in the way H672 to Ephrath H1035 (the same is Bethlehem)."

8 H3478 Israel H7200 saw H3130 Joseph's H1121 sons, H559 and said, "Who are these?"

9 H3130 Joseph H559 said H1 to his father, H1121 "They are my sons, H430 whom God H5414 has given H559 me here." He said, H3947 "Please bring them H1288 to me, and I will bless them."

10 H5869 Now the eyes H3478 of Israel H3513 were dim H2207 for age, H3201 so that he couldn't H7200 see. H5066 He brought them near H5401 to him; and he kissed H2263 them, and embraced them.

11 H3478 Israel H559 said H3130 to Joseph, H6419 "I didn't think H7200 I would see H6440 your face, H7200 and behold, H430 God H2233 has let me see your seed also."

12 H3130 Joseph H3318 brought them out H5973 from between H1290 his knees, H7812 and he bowed H639 himself with his face H776 to the earth.

13 H3130 Joseph H3947 took H8147 them both, H669 Ephraim H3225 in his right hand H3478 toward Israel's H8040 left hand, H4519 and Manasseh H8040 in his left hand H3478 toward Israel's H3225 right hand, H5066 and brought them near to him.

14 H3478 Israel H7971 stretched out H3225 his right hand, H7896 and laid H669 it on Ephraim's H7218 head, H6810 who was the younger, H8040 and his left hand H4519 on Manasseh's H7218 head, H7919 guiding H3027 his hands H7919 knowingly, H4519 for Manasseh H1060 was the firstborn.

15 H1288 He blessed H3130 Joseph, H559 and said, H430 "The God H6440 before H1 whom my fathers H85 Abraham H3327 and Isaac H1980 walked, H430 the God H7462 who has fed H5750 me all my life long H3117 to this day,

16 H4397 the angel H1350 who has redeemed H7451 me from all evil, H1288 bless H5288 the lads, H8034 and let my name H7121 be named H8034 on them, and the name H1 of my fathers H85 Abraham H3327 and Isaac. H1711 Let them grow H7230 into a multitude H7130 in the midst H776 of the earth."

17 H3130 When Joseph H7200 saw H1 that his father H7896 laid H3225 his right H3027 hand H7218 on the head H669 of Ephraim, H3415 it displeased H8551 him. He held up H1 his father's H3027 hand, H5493 to remove H669 it from Ephraim's H7218 head H4519 to Manasseh's H7218 head.

18 H3130 Joseph H559 said H1 to his father, H1 "Not so, my father; H1060 for this is the firstborn; H7760 put H3225 your right hand H7218 on his head."

19 H1 His father H3985 refused, H559 and said, H3045 "I know, H1121 my son, H3045 I know. H5971 He also will become a people, H1431 and he also will be great. H199 However, H6996 his younger H251 brother H1431 will be greater H2233 than he, and his seed H4393 will become a multitude H1471 of nations."

20 H1288 He blessed H3117 them that day, H559 saying, H3478 "In you will Israel H1288 bless, H559 saying, H430 ‘God H7760 make H669 you as Ephraim H4519 and as Manasseh'" H7760 He set H669 Ephraim H6440 before H4519 Manasseh.

21 H3478 Israel H559 said H3130 to Joseph, H4191 "Behold, I am dying, H430 but God H7725 will be with you, and bring you again H776 to the land H1 of your fathers.

22 H5414 Moreover I have given H259 to you one H7926 portion H251 above your brothers, H3947 which I took H3027 out of the hand H567 of the Amorite H2719 with my sword H7198 and with my bow."
