Genesis 48:10–48:16
מ"ח:י׳ וְעֵינֵ֤י יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ כָּבְד֣וּ מִזֹּ֔קֶן לֹ֥א יוּכַ֖ל לִרְא֑וֹת וַיַּגֵּ֤שׁ אֹתָם֙ אֵלָ֔יו וַיִּשַּׁ֥ק לָהֶ֖ם וַיְחַבֵּ֥ק לָהֶֽם׃
48:10 Now Israel’s eyes were dim with age; he could not see. So [Joseph] brought them close to him, and he kissed them and embraced them.
48:10 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.
מ"ח:י׳ וְעֵינֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל יְקָרָן מִסֵּיבוּ לָא יִכּוּל לְמֶחֱזֵי וְקָרִיב יָתְהוֹן לְוָתֵיהּ וְנַשִּׁיק לְהוֹן וְגַפִּיף לְהוֹן:
מ"ח:י"א וַיֹּ֤אמֶר יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ אֶל־יוֹסֵ֔ף רְאֹ֥ה פָנֶ֖יךָ לֹ֣א פִלָּ֑לְתִּי וְהִנֵּ֨ה הֶרְאָ֥ה אֹתִ֛י אֱלֹהִ֖ים גַּ֥ם אֶת־זַרְעֶֽךָ׃
48:11 And Israel said to Joseph, “I never expected to see you again, and here God has let me see your children as well.”
48:11 And Israel said unto Joseph: ‘I had not thought to see thy face; and, lo, God hath let me see thy seed also.’
מ"ח:י"א וַאֲמַר יִשְׂרָאֵל לְיוֹסֵף לְמֶחֱזֵי אַפָּיךְ לָא סְבָרִית וְהָא אַחֲזִי יָתִי יְיָ אַף יָת בְּנָךְ:
מ"ח:י"ב וַיּוֹצֵ֥א יוֹסֵ֛ף אֹתָ֖ם מֵעִ֣ם בִּרְכָּ֑יו וַיִּשְׁתַּ֥חוּ לְאַפָּ֖יו אָֽרְצָה׃
48:12 Joseph then removed them from his knees, and bowed low with his face to the ground.
48:12 And Joseph brought them out from between his knees; and he fell down on his face to the earth.
מ"ח:י"ב וְאַפֵּיק יוֹסֵף יָתְהוֹן מִן קֳדָמוֹהִי וּסְגִיד עַל אַפּוֹהִי עַל אַרְעָא:
מ"ח:י"ג וַיִּקַּ֣ח יוֹסֵף֮ אֶת־שְׁנֵיהֶם֒ אֶת־אֶפְרַ֤יִם בִּֽימִינוֹ֙ מִשְּׂמֹ֣אל יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל וְאֶת־מְנַשֶּׁ֥ה בִשְׂמֹאל֖וֹ מִימִ֣ין יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל וַיַּגֵּ֖שׁ אֵלָֽיו׃
48:13 Joseph took the two of them, Ephraim with his right hand—to Israel’s left—and Manasseh with his left hand—to Israel’s right—and brought them close to him.
48:13 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.
מ"ח:י"ג וּדְבַר יוֹסֵף יָת תַּרְוֵיהוֹן יָת אֶפְרַיִם בִּימִינֵיהּ מִסְּמָאלָא דְיִשְׂרָאֵל וְיָת מְנַשֶּׁה בִסְּמָאלֵיהּ מִימִינָא דְיִשְׂרָאֵל וְקָרֵיב לְוָתֵיהּ:
מ"ח:י"ד וַיִּשְׁלַח֩ יִשְׂרָאֵ֨ל אֶת־יְמִינ֜וֹ וַיָּ֨שֶׁת עַל־רֹ֤אשׁ אֶפְרַ֙יִם֙ וְה֣וּא הַצָּעִ֔יר וְאֶת־שְׂמֹאל֖וֹ עַל־רֹ֣אשׁ מְנַשֶּׁ֑ה שִׂכֵּל֙ אֶת־יָדָ֔יו כִּ֥י מְנַשֶּׁ֖ה הַבְּכֽוֹר׃
48:14 But Israel stretched out his right hand and laid it on Ephraim’s head, though he was the younger, and his left hand on Manasseh’s head—thus crossing his hands—although Manasseh was the first-born.
48:14 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 first-born.
מ"ח:י"ד וְאוֹשִׁיט יִשְׂרָאֵל יָת יְמִינֵיהּ וְשַׁוִּי עַל רֵישָׁא דְאֶפְרַיִם וְהוּא זְעֵירָא וְיָת סְמָאלֵיהּ עַל רֵישָׁא דִמְנַשֶּׁה אַחְכִּימִנּוּן לִידוֹהִי אֲרֵי מְנַשֶּׁה בּוּכְרָא:
מ"ח:ט"ו וַיְבָ֥רֶךְ אֶת־יוֹסֵ֖ף וַיֹּאמַ֑ר הָֽאֱלֹהִ֡ים אֲשֶׁר֩ הִתְהַלְּכ֨וּ אֲבֹתַ֤י לְפָנָיו֙ אַבְרָהָ֣ם וְיִצְחָ֔ק הָֽאֱלֹהִים֙ הָרֹעֶ֣ה אֹתִ֔י מֵעוֹדִ֖י עַד־הַיּ֥וֹם הַזֶּֽה׃
48:15 And he blessed Joseph, saying, “The God in whose ways my fathers Abraham and Isaac walked, The God who has been my shepherd from my birth to this day—
48:15 And he blessed Joseph, and said: ‘The God before whom my fathers Abraham and Isaac did walk, the God who hath been my shepherd all my life long unto this day,
מ"ח:ט"ו וּבָרִיךְ יָת יוֹסֵף וַאֲמָר יְיָ דִּי פְלָחוּ אֲבָהָתַי קֳדָמוֹהִי אַבְרָהָם וְיִצְחָק יְיָ דְּזַן יָתִי מִדְּאִיתָנִי עַד יוֹמָא הָדֵין:
מ"ח:ט"ז הַמַּלְאָךְ֩ הַגֹּאֵ֨ל אֹתִ֜י מִכָּל־רָ֗ע יְבָרֵךְ֮ אֶת־הַנְּעָרִים֒ וְיִקָּרֵ֤א בָהֶם֙ שְׁמִ֔י וְשֵׁ֥ם אֲבֹתַ֖י אַבְרָהָ֣ם וְיִצְחָ֑ק וְיִדְגּ֥וּ לָרֹ֖ב בְּקֶ֥רֶב הָאָֽרֶץ׃
48:16 The Angel who has redeemed me from all harm— Bless the lads. In them may my name be recalled, And the names of my fathers Abraham and Isaac, And may they be teeming multitudes upon the earth.”
48:16 the angel who hath redeemed me from all evil, bless the lads; and let my name be named in them, and the name of my fathers Abraham and Isaac; and let them grow into a multitude in the midst of the earth.’
מ"ח:ט"ז מַלְאָכָא דִּי פְרַק יָתִי מִכָּל בִּישָׁא יְבָרֵךְ יָת עוּלֵימַיָּא וְיִתְקְרֵי בְהוֹן שְׁמִי וְשׁוּם אֲבָהָתַי אַבְרָהָם וְיִצְחָק וּכְנוּנֵי יַמָּא יִסְגּוּן בְּגוֹ בְנֵי אֱנָשָׁא עַל אַרְעָא:
