Bible verse
And to you, as one who is above your brothers, I give the ridge of land that I took from the Amorites with my sword and bow.”
Genesis 48:22 · BSB
The verses around it, from Genesis 48.
18 “Not so, my father!” Joseph said. “This one is the firstborn; put your right hand on his head.”
19 But his father refused. “I know, my son, I know!” he said. “He too shall become a people, and he too shall be great; nevertheless, his younger brother shall be greater than he, and his offspring shall become a multitude of nations.”
20 So that day Jacob blessed them and said: “By you shall Israel pronounce this blessing: ‘May God make you like Ephraim and Manasseh.’” So he put Ephraim before Manasseh.
21 Then Israel said to Joseph, “Look, I am about to die, but God will be with you and bring you back to the land of your fathers.
22 And to you, as one who is above your brothers, I give the ridge of land that I took from the Amorites with my sword and bow.”
