Genesis 48:14-16

English Standard Version Anglicised

¹⁴^(A)And Israel stretched out his right hand and laid it on the head of Ephraim, who was the younger, and his left hand on the head of Manasseh, ^(B)crossing his hands (for Manasseh was the firstborn). ¹⁵And he blessed Joseph and said,

“The God ^(C)before whom my fathers Abraham and Isaac walked,
    the God who has been my shepherd all my life long to this day,
¹⁶^(D)the angel who has ^(E)redeemed me from all evil, bless the boys;
    and in them let ^(F)my name be carried on, and the name of my fathers Abraham and Isaac;
    and let them ^(G)grow into a multitude^[a] in the midst of the earth.”
