Matthew⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁷ When Ioseph sawe that hys father layde his ryght hand vpon the heade of Ephraim, it displeased him. And he lyfte vp his fathers hande, to haue remoued it from Ephrayms head vnto Manasses head, ¹⁸ and sayde vnto hys father: Not so my father, for thys is the eldest. Put thy ryght hande vpon hys head. ¹⁹ And hys father wold not: but sayd: I knowe it well my sonne, I knowe it well. He shalbe also a people & shalbe great. But of a truth hys yonger brother shalbe greatter than he, and hys seed shall be full of people.
