Manase vwandaka na diboko ya kento ya Yosefi, na lweka ya diboko ya bakala ya Isayeli. Yosefi belimisaka bawu na Isayeli mutindu yina.BSBBSB: 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.

Bika ti bawu kubutana mpe bawu kukuma mingi na kati ya yinsi!»BSBBSB: the angel who has redeemed me from all harm—may He bless these boys. And may they be called by my name and the names of my fathers Abraham and Isaac, and may they grow into a multitude upon the earth.”
17. 17MKWYosefi talaka yimbi samu ti tata ya yandi tulaka diboko ya yandi ya lubakala na zulu ya yintu ya Efalayime.

Kasi, leki ya yandi ke lutila yandi mpe bana ya yandi ke kuma makanda mingi.»BSBBSB: But his father refused. “I know, my son, I know!” he said. “He too shall become a people, and he too shall be great; nevertheless, his younger brother shall be greater than he, and his offspring shall become a multitude of nations.”
20. 20MKWNa kilumbu yina, yandi sakumunaka bawu mutindu yayi: «Bantu ya Isayeli ke banda na kutangunaka bankumbu ya beno samu na kusakumuna bantu. Ba ke tuba: “Bika ti Nzambi kusala na nge mutindu yandi salaka na Efalayime mpe na Manase!”» Na kusala mutindu yina, Isayeli tulaka Efalayime na mantwala ya Manase.BSBBSB: So that day Jacob blessed them and said: “By you shall Israel pronounce this blessing: ‘May God make you like Ephraim and Manasseh.’” So he put Ephraim before Manasseh.
21. 21MKWIsayeli tubaka na Yosefi: «Mu ke dyaka ntama ve na lufwa, kasi Nzambi ke vwanda na beno. Yandi ke vutula beno na yinsi ya bankooko ya beno.BSBBSB: Then Israel said to Joseph, “Look, I am about to die, but God will be with you and bring you back to the land of your fathers.
22. 22MKWMunu, mu me pesa nge ntoto ya Sekeme. Yawu kele kikunku ya kulutila na bikunku ya bampangi ya nge. Mu nwanisaka ba-Amoli na mbele ya muzingu mpe na munani ya mvita, samu na kuzwa ntoto yina.»BSBBSB: And to you, as one who is above your brothers, I give the ridge of land that I took from the Amorites with my sword and bow.”
