who [was] the younger
<06810>_,

and his left hand
<08040>

head
<07218>_,

guiding

his hands
<03027>

God

before
<06440>

whom my fathers
<01>

Abraham
<085>

and Isaac
<03327>

did walk
<01980> (8694)_,

the God
<0430>

which fed
<07462> (8802)

me all my life long
<05750>

unto this day
<03117>_,

48:16

The Angel
<04397>

which redeemed
<01350> (8802)

me from all evil
<07451>_,

bless
<01288> (8762)

the lads
<05288>_;

and let my name
<08034>

be named
<07121> (8735)

on them, and the name
<08034>

of my fathers
<01>

Abraham
<085>

and Isaac
<03327>_;

and let them grow
<01711> (8799)

into a multitude
<07230>

in the midst
<07130>

of the earth
<0776>_.

<03225>

hand
<03027>

upon the head
<07218>

<0669>_,

it displeased
<03415> (8799) <05869>

him: and he held up
<08551> (8799)

his father's
<01>

hand
<03027>_,

to remove
<05493> (8687)

it from Ephraim's
<0669>

head
<07218>

unto Manasseh's
<04519>

head

48:18

And Joseph
<03130>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto his father
<01>_,

Not so, my father
<01>_:

for this [is] the firstborn
<01060>_;

put
<07760> (8798)

thy right hand
<03225>

upon his head
<07218>_.

48:19

And his father
<01>

refused
<03985> (8762)_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

I know
<03045> (8804)

[it], my son
<01121>_,

I know
<03045> (8804)

[it]: he also shall become a people
<05971>_,

and he also shall be great
<01431> (8799)_:

but truly
<0199>

his younger
<06996>

brother
<0251>

shall be greater
<01431> (8799)

than he, and his seed
<02233>

shall become a multitude
<04393>

of nations
<01471>_.

{multitude: Heb. fulness}

48:20

And he blessed
<01288> (8762)

them that day
<03117>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

In thee shall Israel
<03478>

bless
<01288> (8762)_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

God
<0430>

make
<07760> (8799)

thee as Ephraim
<0669>

and as Manasseh
<04519>_:

and he set
<07760> (8799)

Ephraim
<0669>

before
<06440>

Manasseh
<04519>_.
