By faith Jacob, when he was dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph and worshipped while leaning on the top of his staff.
And he said, “Swear to me,” and he swore to him. Then Israel bowed himself at the head of his bed.
After this, Joseph was told, “Behold, your father is ill.” So he took his two sons Manasseh and Ephraim with him.
Moreover, the king’s servants came to bless our lord King David, saying, ‘May God make the name of Solomon better than your name and make his throne greater than your throne.’ And the king bowed himself upon the bed.
