Genesis 48:10-12

New International Reader's Version

¹⁰ Israel’s eyes were weak because he was old. He couldn’t see very well. So Joseph brought his sons close to him. His father kissed them and hugged them.

¹¹ Israel said to Joseph, “I never thought I’d see your face again. But now God has let me see your children too.”

¹² Then Joseph lifted his sons off Israel’s knees. Joseph bowed down with his face to the ground.
