9Joseph said to his father, “They are my sons, whom God has given me here.” And Jacob said, “Bring them to me, please, that I may bless them.”
10Now the eyes of Jacob were dim with age, so that he could not see. So Joseph brought them near him, and he kissed them and embraced them.
- Gen 48:9-10 ESV
15And he blessed Joseph and said, “The God before whom my fathers Abraham and Isaac walked, the God who has been my shepherd all my life long to this day, 16the angel who has redeemed me from all evil, bless the boys; and in them let my name be carried on, and the name of my fathers Abraham and Isaac; and let them grow into a multitude in the midst of the earth.”
