Genesis 48

KING JAMES BIBLE	LXX
1 And it came to pass after these things, that one told Joseph, Behold, thy father is sick: and he took with him his two sons, Manasseh and Ephraim.	1 εγενετο δε μετα τα ρηματα ταυτα και απηγγελη τω ιωσηφ οτι ο πατηρ σου ενοχλειται και αναλαβων τους δυο υιους αυτου τον μανασση και τον εφραιμ ηλθεν προς ιακωβ
2 And one told Jacob, and said, Behold, thy son Joseph cometh unto thee: and Israel strengthened himself, and sat upon the bed.	2 απηγγελη δε τω ιακωβ λεγοντες ιδου ο υιος σου ιωσηφ ερχεται προς σε και ενισχυσας ισραηλ εκαθισεν επι την κλινην
3 And Jacob said unto Joseph, God Almighty appeared unto me at Luz in the land of Canaan, and blessed me,	3 και ειπεν ιακωβ τω ιωσηφ ο θεος μου ωφθη μοι εν λουζα εν γη χανααν και ευλογησεν με
4 And said unto me, Behold, I will make thee fruitful, and multiply thee, and I will make of thee a multitude of people; and will give this land to thy seed after thee for an everlasting possession.	4 και ειπεν μοι ιδου εγω αυξανω σε και πληθυνω σε και ποιησω σε εις συναγωγας εθνων και δωσω σοι την γην ταυτην και τω σπερματι σου μετα σε εις κατασχεσιν αιωνιον
5 And now thy two sons, Ephraim and Manasseh, which were born unto thee in the land of Egypt before I came unto thee into Egypt, are mine; as Reuben and Simeon, they shall be mine.	5 νυν ουν οι δυο υιοι σου οι γενομενοι σοι εν αιγυπτω προ του με ελθειν προς σε εις αιγυπτον εμοι εισιν εφραιμ και μανασση ως ρουβην και συμεων εσονται μοι
6 And thy issue, which thou begettest after them, shall be thine, and shall be called after the name of their brethren in their inheritance.	6 τα δε εκγονα α εαν γεννησης μετα ταυτα σοι εσονται επι τω ονοματι των αδελφων αυτων κληθησονται εν τοις εκεινων κληροις
7 And as for me, when I came from Padan, Rachel died by me in the land of Canaan in the way, when yet there was but a little way to come unto Ephrath: and I buried her there in the way of Ephrath; the same is Bethlehem.	7 εγω δε ηνικα ηρχομην εκ μεσοποταμιας της συριας απεθανεν ραχηλ η μητηρ σου εν γη χανααν εγγιζοντος μου κατα τον ιπποδρομον χαβραθα της γης του ελθειν εφραθα και κατωρυξα αυτην εν τη οδω του ιπποδρομου αυτη εστιν βαιθλεεμ
8 And Israel beheld Joseph's sons, and said, Who are these?	8 ιδων δε ισραηλ τους υιους ιωσηφ ειπεν τινες σοι ουτοι
9 And Joseph said unto his father, They are my sons, whom God hath given me in this place. And he said, Bring them, I pray thee, unto me, and I will bless them.	9 ειπεν δε ιωσηφ τω πατρι αυτου υιοι μου εισιν ους εδωκεν μοι ο θεος ενταυθα και ειπεν ιακωβ προσαγαγε μοι αυτους ινα ευλογησω αυτους
10 Now the eyes of Israel were dim for age, so that he could not see. And he brought them near unto him; and he kissed them, and embraced them.	10 οι δε οφθαλμοι ισραηλ εβαρυωπησαν απο του γηρους και ουκ ηδυνατο βλεπειν και ηγγισεν αυτους προς αυτον και εφιλησεν αυτους και περιελαβεν αυτους
11 And Israel said unto Joseph, I had not thought to see thy face: and, lo, God hath shewed me also thy seed.	11 και ειπεν ισραηλ προς ιωσηφ ιδου του προσωπου σου ουκ εστερηθην και ιδου εδειξεν μοι ο θεος και το σπερμα σου
12 And Joseph brought them out from between his knees, and he bowed himself with his face to the earth.	12 και εξηγαγεν ιωσηφ αυτους απο των γονατων αυτου και προσεκυνησαν αυτω επι προσωπον επι της γης
13 And Joseph took them both, Ephraim in his right hand toward Israel's left hand, and Manasseh in his left hand toward Israel's right hand, and brought them near unto him.	13 λαβων δε ιωσηφ τους δυο υιους αυτου τον τε εφραιμ εν τη δεξια εξ αριστερων δε ισραηλ τον δε μανασση εν τη αριστερα εκ δεξιων δε ισραηλ ηγγισεν αυτους αυτω
14 And Israel stretched out his right hand, and laid it upon Ephraim's head, who was the younger, and his left hand upon Manasseh's head, guiding his hands wittingly; for Manasseh was the firstborn.	14 εκτεινας δε ισραηλ την χειρα την δεξιαν επεβαλεν επι την κεφαλην εφραιμ ουτος δε ην ο νεωτερος και την αριστεραν επι την κεφαλην μανασση εναλλαξ τας χειρας
15 And he blessed Joseph, and said, God, before whom my fathers Abraham and Isaac did walk, the God which fed me all my life long unto this day,	15 και ηυλογησεν αυτους και ειπεν ο θεος ω ευηρεστησαν οι πατερες μου εναντιον αυτου αβρααμ και ισαακ ο θεος ο τρεφων με εκ νεοτητος εως της ημερας ταυτης
16 The Angel which 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; and let them grow into a multitude in the midst of the earth.	16 ο αγγελος ο ρυομενος με εκ παντων των κακων ευλογησαι τα παιδια ταυτα και επικληθησεται εν αυτοις το ονομα μου και το ονομα των πατερων μου αβρααμ και ισαακ και πληθυνθειησαν εις πληθος πολυ επι της γης
17 And when Joseph saw that his father laid his right hand upon the head of Ephraim, it displeased him: and he held up his father's hand, to remove it from Ephraim's head unto Manasseh's head.	17 ιδων δε ιωσηφ οτι επεβαλεν ο πατηρ την δεξιαν αυτου επι την κεφαλην εφραιμ βαρυ αυτω κατεφανη και αντελαβετο ιωσηφ της χειρος του πατρος αυτου αφελειν αυτην απο της κεφαλης εφραιμ επι την κεφαλην μανασση
18 And Joseph said unto his father, Not so, my father: for this is the firstborn; put thy right hand upon his head.	18 ειπεν δε ιωσηφ τω πατρι αυτου ουχ ουτως πατερ ουτος γαρ ο πρωτοτοκος επιθες την δεξιαν σου επι την κεφαλην αυτου
19 And his father refused, and said, I know it, my son, I know it: he also shall become a people, and he also shall be great: but truly his younger brother shall be greater than he, and his seed shall become a multitude of nations.	19 και ουκ ηθελησεν αλλα ειπεν οιδα τεκνον οιδα και ουτος εσται εις λαον και ουτος υψωθησεται αλλα ο αδελφος αυτου ο νεωτερος μειζων αυτου εσται και το σπερμα αυτου εσται εις πληθος εθνων
20 And he blessed them that day, saying, In thee shall Israel bless, saying, God make thee as Ephraim and as Manasseh: and he set Ephraim before Manasseh.	20 και ευλογησεν αυτους εν τη ημερα εκεινη λεγων εν υμιν ευλογηθησεται ισραηλ λεγοντες ποιησαι σε ο θεος ως εφραιμ και ως μανασση και εθηκεν τον εφραιμ εμπροσθεν του μανασση
21 And Israel said unto Joseph, Behold, I die: but God shall be with you, and bring you again unto the land of your fathers.	21 ειπεν δε ισραηλ τω ιωσηφ ιδου εγω αποθνησκω και εσται ο θεος μεθ' υμων και αποστρεψει υμας εις την γην των πατερων υμων
22 Moreover I have given to thee one portion above thy brethren, which I took out of the hand of the Amorite with my sword and with my bow.	22 εγω δε διδωμι σοι σικιμα εξαιρετον υπερ τους αδελφους σου ην ελαβον εκ χειρος αμορραιων εν μαχαιρα μου και τοξω
