ગુજરાતીઉત્પત્તિ ૪૮:૧૬
દૂત સ્વરૂપે મને સર્વ દુષ્ટતાથી બચાવ્યો છે, તે આ દીકરાઓને આશીર્વાદ આપો. તેઓ મારું, મારા દાદા ઇબ્રાહિમનું તથા પિતા ઇસહાકનું નામ પ્રતિષ્ઠિત કરનારા થાઓ. તેઓ પૃથ્વીમાં વધીને વિશાળ સમુદાય થાઓ.”
हिन्दीउत्पत्ति ४८:१६
और वही दूत मुझे सारी बुराई से छुड़ाता आया है, वही अब इन लड़कों को आशीष दे; और ये मेरे और मेरे बापदादे अब्राहम और इसहाक के कहलाएँ; और पृथ्वी में बहुतायत से बढ़ें।” (इब्रा. 11:21)

In context

14Israel stretched out his right hand, and laid it on Ephraim’s head, who was the younger, and his left hand on Manasseh’s head, guiding his hands knowingly, for Manasseh was the firstborn.

15He blessed Joseph, and said, “The God before whom my fathers Abraham and Isaac walked, the God who has fed me all my life long to this day,

16the angel who has redeemed me from all evil, bless the lads, and let my name be named on them, and the name of my fathers Abraham and Isaac. Let them grow into a multitude upon the earth.”

17When Joseph saw that his father laid his right hand on the head of Ephraim, it displeased him. He held up his father’s hand, to remove it from Ephraim’s head to Manasseh’s head.

18Joseph said to his father, “Not so, my father, for this is the firstborn. Put your right hand on his head.”
