Duo ergo filii tui, qui nati sunt tibi in Terra Ægypti, antequam huc venirem ad te, mei erunt: Ephraim et Manasses, sicut Ruben et Simeon reputabuntur mihi.
6 Pea ko hoʻo fānau te ke fakatupu kimui ʻiate kinaua, ʻe ʻoʻou ia, pea ʻe ui ʻakinautolu ʻi he hingoa ʻo honau kāinga ʻi honau tofiʻa.
Reliquos autem quos genueris post eos, tui erunt, et nomine fratrum suorum vocabuntur in possessionibus suis.

Benedixitque Iacob filiis Ioseph, et ait: Deus, in cuius conspectu ambulaverunt patres mei Abraham, et Isaac, Deus qui pascit me ab adolescentia mea usque in præsentem diem:
16 Ko e ʻāngelo ʻaia naʻa ne huhuʻi au mei he kovi kotoa pē, tāpuakiʻi ʻae ongo tama; pea ke ui hoku hingoa kiate kinaua, mo e hingoa ʻo ʻeku tamai ko ʻEpalahame, mo ʻAisake; pea tuku ke na tupu ko e kakai tokolahi ʻi māmani.”
Angelus, qui eruit me de cunctis malis, benedicat pueris istis: et invocetur super eos nomen meum, nomina quoque patrum meorum Abraham, et Isaac, et crescant in multitudinem super terram.

Videns autem Ioseph quod posuisset pater suus dexteram manum super caput Ephraim, graviter accepit: et apprehensam manum patris levare conatus est de capite Ephraim, et transferre super caput Manasse.
18 Pea pehē ʻe Siosefa ki heʻene tamai, “Ko ʻeku tamai ke ʻoua naʻa pehē, he ko e ʻuluaki eni: ʻai ho nima toʻomataʻu ki hono ʻulu.”

Qui renuens, ait: Scio fili mi, scio: et iste quidem erit in populos, et multiplicabitur: sed frater eius minor, maior erit illo: et semen illius crescet in gentes.
20 Pea naʻa ne tāpuaki ʻakinaua ʻi he ʻaho ko ia, ʻo pehē, “ʻE fai tāpuaki ʻe ʻIsileli ʻiate koe, ʻo pehē, ‘Ke ngaohi koe ʻe he ʻOtua ke tatau mo ʻIfalemi mo Manase:’ pea naʻa ne tuku ʻa ʻIfalemi ki muʻa ʻia Manase.
Benedixitque eis in tempore illo, dicens: In te benedicetur Israel, atque dicetur: Faciat tibi Deus sicut Ephraim, et sicut Manasse. Constituitque Ephraim ante Manassen.
21 Pea pehē ʻe ʻIsileli kia Siosefa, “Vakai teu mate au; ka ʻe ʻiate kimoutolu ʻae ʻOtua, pea te ne toe ʻave ʻakinautolu ki he fonua ʻo hoʻomou ngaahi tamai.
Et ait ad Ioseph filium suum: En ego morior, et erit Deus vobiscum, reducetque vos ad terram patrum vestrorum.

Do tibi partem unam extra fratres tuos, quam tuli de manu Amorrhæi in gladio et arcu meo.
