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, ‘God make you as Ephraim and as Manasseh’| Thus he put Ephraim before Manasseh.
