Gn 48, 1-22

1 And it came to pass after these things, that one told Joseph, Behold, your father is sick: and he took with him his two sons, Manasseh and Ephraim. 2 And one told Jacob, and said, Behold, your son Joseph comes unto you: and Israel strengthened himself, and sat upon the bed. 3 And Jacob said unto Joseph, God Almighty appeared unto me at Luz in the land of Canaan, and blessed me, 4 "And said unto me, Behold, I will make you fruitful, and multiply you, and I will make of you a multitude of people; and will give this land to your seed after you for an everlasting possession. " 5 "And now your two sons, Ephraim and Manasseh, which were born unto you in the land of Egypt before I came unto you into Egypt, are mine; as Reuben and Simeon, they shall be mine. " 6 And your issue, which you brought forth after them, shall be yours, and shall be called after the name of their brethren in their inheritance. 7 "And as for me, when I came from Padan, Rachel died by me in the land of Canaan in the way, when yet there was but a little way to come unto Ephrath: and I buried her there in the way of Ephrath; the same is Bethlehem. " 8 And Israel beheld Joseph's sons, and said, Who are these? 9 And Joseph said unto his father, They are my sons, whom God has given me in this place. And he said, Bring them, I pray you, unto me, and I will bless them. 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 your face: and, lo, God has showed me also your 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 wisely; 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. " 17 And when Joseph saw that his father laid his right hand upon the head of Ephraim, it displeased him: and he held up his father's hand, to remove it from Ephraim's head unto Manasseh's head. 18 "And Joseph said unto his father, Not so, my father: for this is the firstborn; put your right hand upon his head. " 19 And his father refused, and said, I know it, my son, I know it: he also shall become a people, and he also shall be great: but truly his younger brother shall be greater than he, and his seed shall become a multitude of nations. 20 And he blessed them that day, saying, In you shall Israel bless, saying, God make you as Ephraim and as Manasseh: and he set Ephraim before Manasseh. 21 And Israel said unto Joseph, Behold, I die: but God shall be with you, and bring you again unto the land of your fathers. 22 Moreover I have given to you one portion above your brethren, which I took out of the hand of the Amorite with my sword and with my bow.

Gn 48,5 - Jakub adoptuje oboch synov Jozefových. Dáva im tie isté práva, ako majú ostatní synovia Jakubovi. Na požehnaní a prísľube z Betelu (35,11–12) majú mať synovia Jozefovi rovnaký podiel ako ostatní synovia Jakubovi. Efraim a Manasses stanú sa praotcami kmeňov a pripadne im rovnaký podiel pri rozdelení Kanaánu.

Gn 48,6 - Jozef mal aj iných synov, tí sa však pripoja k Efraimovi a Manassesovi. Keď Jakub namiesto Jozefa volí za dedičov jeho dvoch synov, tým dáva najavo, že na Jozefa preniesol právo prvorodeného. Jozef vo svojich synoch dostáva dva podiely. A to bolo právo prvorodeného.

Gn 48,22 - Podiel, ktorý vyrval Jakub v boji Amorejčanom, nie je pozemok, ktorý kúpil (33,19). Apokryfná kniha Jubileorum v hl. 34 má rozpravu o boji, ktorý viedol Jakub s amorejskými kráľmi v okolí Sichemu, keď jeho synovia boli tu prepadnutí. Mojžiš tu zachytáva podanie o tomto boji. Isteže je to pozemok, podiel v okolí Sichemu; neskoršie tam uložili Jozefove kosti (Ex 13,19 a Joz 24,32).
