10(Now the eyes of Israel were dimme for age, so that he could not see,) and hee brought them neere vnto him, and he kissed them, and imbraced them. 11And Israel said vnto Ioseph, I had not thought to see thy face: and loe, God hath shewed me also thy seed. 12And Ioseph brought them out from betweene his knees, and hee bowed himselfe with his face to the earth. 13And Ioseph tooke them both, Ephraim in his right hand, toward Israels left hand, and Manasseh in his left hand towards Israels right hand, and brought them neere vnto him. 14And Israel stretched out his right hand, and layd it vpon Ephraims head who was the yonger; and his left hand vpon Manassehs head, guiding his hands wittingly: for Manasseh was the first borne.
