19 And his father refused and said, “I know, my son, I know! He also shall become a people, and he also shall be great. And yet, his younger brother shall be greater than he, and his seed shall become the fullness of the nations.” 20 And he blessed them that day, saying, “By you Israel will bless, saying, ‘May God make you like Ephraim and like Manasseh.’” And he set Ephraim before Manasseh. 21 And Israel said to Joseph, “Behold, I am dying, and God will be with you? and He will bring you? back to the land of your? fathers. 22 And I, I have given to you one portion above your brothers, which I took from the hand of the Amorite with my sword and with my bow.” Genesis 48:19-22, Berean Literal Bible.
