“And Joseph took both of them—with Ephraim in his right hand toward Israel’s left hand, and Manasseh in his left hand toward Israel’s right hand—and brought them close to him.”
““Not so, my father!” Joseph said. “This one is the firstborn; put your right hand on his head.””
“Your right hand, O LORD, is majestic in power; Your right hand, O LORD, has shattered the enemy.”
“When Joseph saw that his father had placed his right hand on Ephraim’s head, he was displeased and took his father’s hand to move it from Ephraim’s head to Manasseh’s.”
“and the Israelites went through the sea on dry ground, with walls of water on their right and on their left.”
“But Israel stretched out his right hand and put it on the head of Ephraim, the younger; and crossing his hands, he put his left on Manasseh’s head, although Manasseh was the firstborn.”
“Is not the whole land before you? Now separate yourself from me. If you go to the left, I will go to the right; if you go to the right, I will go to the left.””
“But the Israelites had walked through the sea on dry ground, with walls of water on their right and on their left.”
“Now if you will show kindness and faithfulness to my master, tell me; but if not, let me know, so that I may go elsewhere.””
