51 So Joseph called the name of the firstborn Ma·nasʹseh,*+ because, to quote him, “God* has made me forget all my trouble and all the house of my father.”+

14 However, Israel put out his right hand and placed it on Eʹphra·im’s head,+ although he was the younger,+ and his left hand upon Ma·nasʹseh’s head.+ He purposely laid his hands so,* since Ma·nasʹseh was the firstborn.+

29 Further, Moses made a gift to the half tribe* of Ma·nasʹseh, and it came to be that of the half tribe* of the sons of Ma·nasʹseh by their families.+
