Genesis 48:12-14

New International Version

¹² Then Joseph removed them from Israel’s knees^(A) and bowed down with his face to the ground.^{(B) 13} And Joseph took both of them, Ephraim on his right toward Israel’s left hand and Manasseh on his left toward Israel’s right hand,^(C) and brought them close to him. ¹⁴ But Israel^(D) reached out his right hand and put it on Ephraim’s head,^(E) though he was the younger,^(F) and crossing his arms, he put his left hand on Manasseh’s head, even though Manasseh was the firstborn.^(G)
