Genesis 48:12-14

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹² Joseph moved them from Jacob’s lap, and he bowed down with his face to the ground. ¹³ Joseph led them both. He led Ephraim with his right hand toward Israel’s left hand, and Manasseh with his left hand toward Israel’s right hand, and brought them close to him. ¹⁴ But Israel, crossing his hands, stretched out his right hand and laid it on the head of Ephraim, who was the younger, and his left hand on Manasseh’s head, though Manasseh was the firstborn.
