51 Joseph called the name of the ^rfirstborn Manasseh. “For,” he said, “God has made me forget all my hardship and all my father’s house.”¹

20 And to Joseph in the land of Egypt were born Manasseh and Ephraim, ^ywhom Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera the priest of On, bore to him.

14 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, crossing his hands (for Manasseh was the ⁿfirstborn).

18 And Joseph said to his father, ^t“Not this way, my father; since this one is the firstborn, put your right hand on his head.”
