48 1 Joseph with his two sons visiteth his sick father. 3 Jacob rehearseth God’s promise. 5 He receiveth Joseph’s sons as his. 19 He preferreth the younger.
1 Again after this, one said to Joseph, Lo, thy father is sick: then he took with him his [a]two sons, Manasseh and Ephraim.
2 Also one told Jacob, and said, Behold thy son Joseph is come to thee, and Israel took his strength unto him and sat upon the bed.
