Genesis 48:10-16
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 48
10
Now the eyes of Israel were
so
dim from age
that
he could not see. And Joseph brought them close to him, and he kissed them and embraced them.
11
And Israel said to Joseph, 'I never expected to see your face, and behold, God has let me see your children as well!'
12
Then Joseph took them from his knees, and bowed with his face to the ground.
13
And Joseph took them both, Ephraim with his right hand toward Israel’s left, and Manasseh with his left hand toward Israel’s right, and brought them close to him.
14
But Israel reached out his right hand and placed it on the head of Ephraim, who was the younger, and his left hand on Manasseh’s head, crossing his hands, although Manasseh was the firstborn.
15
And he blessed Joseph, and said,
'The God before whom my fathers Abraham and Isaac walked,
The God who has been my shepherd all my life to this day,
16
The angel who has redeemed me from all evil,
Bless the boys;
And may my name live on in them,
And the names of my fathers Abraham and Isaac;
And may they grow into a multitude in the midst of the earth.'
King James Version
Chapter 48
10
Now the eyes of Israel were dim for age, so that he could not see. And he brought them near unto him; and he kissed them, and embraced them.
11
And Israel said unto Joseph, I had not thought to see thy face: and, lo, God hath shewed me also thy seed.
12
And Joseph brought them out from between his knees, and he bowed himself with his face to the earth.
13
And Joseph took them both, Ephraim in his right hand toward Israel's left hand, and Manasseh in his left hand toward Israel's right hand, and brought them near unto him.
14
And Israel stretched out his right hand, and laid it upon Ephraim's head, who was the younger, and his left hand upon Manasseh's head, guiding his hands wittingly; for Manasseh was the firstborn.
15
And he blessed Joseph, and said, God, before whom my fathers Abraham and Isaac did walk, the God which fed me all my life long unto this day,
16
The Angel which redeemed me from all evil, bless the lads; and let my name be named on them, and the name of my fathers Abraham and Isaac; and let them grow into a multitude in the midst of the earth.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 48
10
Now his eyesight was poor because of old age; he could hardly see. Joseph brought them to him, and he kissed and embraced them.
11
Israel said to Joseph, "I never expected to see your face again, but now God has even let me see your offspring."
12
Then Joseph took them from his father’s knees and bowed with his face to the ground.
13
Then Joseph took them both—with his right hand Ephraim toward Israel’s left, and with his left hand Manasseh toward Israel’s right—and brought them to Israel.
14
But Israel stretched out his right hand and put it on the head of Ephraim, the younger, and crossing his hands, put his left on Manasseh’s head, although Manasseh was the firstborn.
15
Then he blessed Joseph and said:
The God before whom my fathers Abraham and Isaac walked,
the God who has been my shepherd all my life to this day,
16
the angel who has redeemed me from all harm —
may he bless these boys.
And may they be called by my name
and the names of my fathers Abraham and Isaac,
and may they grow to be numerous within the land.
New Living Translation
Chapter 48
10
Jacob was half blind because of his age and could hardly see. So Joseph brought the boys close to him, and Jacob kissed and embraced them.
11
Then Jacob said to Joseph, 'I never thought I would see your face again, but now God has let me see your children, too!'
12
Joseph moved the boys, who were at their grandfather’s knees, and he bowed with his face to the ground.
13
Then he positioned the boys in front of Jacob. With his right hand he directed Ephraim toward Jacob’s left hand, and with his left hand he put Manasseh at Jacob’s right hand.
14
But Jacob crossed his arms as he reached out to lay his hands on the boys’ heads. He put his right hand on the head of Ephraim, though he was the younger boy, and his left hand on the head of Manasseh, though he was the firstborn.
15
Then he blessed Joseph and said,
'May the God before whom my grandfather Abraham
and my father, Isaac, walked —
the God who has been my shepherd
all my life, to this very day,
16
the Angel who has redeemed me from all harm —
may he bless these boys.
May they preserve my name
and the names of Abraham and Isaac.
And may their descendants multiply greatly
throughout the earth.'

Chapter 48
10
Now Israel’s eyes were failing because of old age, and he could hardly see. So Joseph brought his sons close to him, and his father kissed them and embraced them.
11
Israel said to Joseph, "I never expected to see your face again, and now God has allowed me to see your children too."
12
Then Joseph removed them from Israel’s knees and bowed down with his face to the ground.
13
And Joseph took both of them, Ephraim on his right toward Israel’s left hand and Manasseh on his left toward Israel’s right hand, and brought them close to him.
14
But Israel reached out his right hand and put it on Ephraim’s head, though he was the younger, and crossing his arms, he put his left hand on Manasseh’s head, even though Manasseh was the firstborn.
15
Then he blessed Joseph and said,
"May the God before whom my fathers
Abraham and Isaac walked faithfully,
the God who has been my shepherd
all my life to this day,
16
the Angel who has delivered me from all harm
—may he bless these boys.
May they be called by my name
and the names of my fathers Abraham and Isaac,
and may they increase greatly
on the earth."

Chapter 48
10
Now the eyes of Israel were dim with age,
so that
he could not see. Then Joseph brought them near him, and he kissed them and embraced them.
11
And Israel said to Joseph, “I had not thought to see your face; but in fact, God has also shown me your offspring!”
12
So Joseph brought them from beside his knees, and he bowed down with his face to the earth.
13
And Joseph took them both, Ephraim with his right hand toward Israel’s left hand, and Manasseh with his left hand toward Israel’s right hand, and brought
them
near him.
14
Then Israel stretched out his right hand and laid
it
on Ephraim’s head, who
was
the younger, and his left hand on Manasseh’s head, guiding his hands knowingly, for Manasseh
was
the firstborn.
15
And he blessed Joseph, and said:
“God, before whom my fathers Abraham and Isaac walked,
The God who has fed me all my life long to this day,
16
The Angel who has redeemed me from all evil,
Bless the lads;
Let my name be named upon them,
And the name of my fathers Abraham and Isaac;
And let them grow into a multitude in the midst of the earth.”
