Genesis 48:4-6

English Standard Version

⁴ and said to me, ‘Behold, I will make you fruitful and multiply you, and I will make of you a company of peoples and will give this land to your offspring after you ^(A)for an everlasting possession.’ ⁵ And now your ^(B)two sons, who were born to you in the land of Egypt before I came to you in Egypt, ^(C)are mine; Ephraim and Manasseh shall be mine, as Reuben and Simeon are. ⁶ And the children that you fathered after them shall be yours. They shall be called by the name of their brothers in their inheritance.
