Genesis 48:12 in Context — Genesis 48

10 E os olhos de Israel estavam tão agravados da velhice, que não podia ver. Fez-lhes, pois, chegar a ele, e ele os beijou e abraçou.

11 E disse Israel a José: Não pensava eu ver teu rosto, e eis que Deus me fez ver também tua descendência.

12 Então José os tirou dentre seus joelhos, e inclinou-se à terra.

13 E tomou-os José a ambos, Efraim à sua direita, à esquerda de Israel; e a Manassés à sua esquerda, à direita de Israel; e fez-lhes chegar a ele.

14 Então Israel estendeu sua mão direita, e a pôs sobre a cabeça de Efraim, que era o mais novo, e sua esquerda sobre a cabeça de Manassés, colocando assim suas mãos propositadamente, ainda que Manassés era o primogênito.
