Genesis 48:5New Messianic Version BibleAnd now youri two sons, Efrayim (Out of the Ashes I am Fruitful; fruitful in affliction) and M’nasheh (causing to forget; from a debt), which were born unto youi in the land of Mitzrayim [Egypt] (Double Distress or Double Stronghold, Black Land) before I came unto youi into Mitzrayim [Egypt], [are] my; as Re’uven (behold a son) and Shim’on (heard; he who hears; man of hearing), they shall be my. See the chapter |
And unto Yosef (Increaser; May God the Powerful One add [Yah]) in the land of Mitzrayim [Egypt] (Double Distress or Double Stronghold, Black Land) were born M’nasheh (causing to forget; from a debt) and Efrayim (Out of the Ashes I am Fruitful; fruitful in affliction), which Osnat (gift of the water) the daughter of Poti-Fera (belonging to the sun-god; he whom Ra gave) priest of On (meaning: sun-city; Heliopolis) bore unto him.
Now when I passed by youi, and looked upon youi, behold, youri time [was] the time of love; and I spread my skirt over youi, and covered youri nakedness: yes, I swore unto youi, and entered into a covenant with youi, says the Lord-Adonai [Greatest Above All Things] GOD-Yehōvih (THE FATHER), and youi became mine.
