## Genesis 48:7 in Context (Verses 4–10 KJV)
 
 [4 ](/kjv/genesis/48/4) And said unto me, Behold, I will make thee fruitful, and multiply thee, and I will make of thee a multitude of people; and will give this land to thy seed after thee *for* an everlasting possession.
 
 [5 ](/kjv/genesis/48/5) ¶ And now thy two sons, Ephraim and Manasseh, which were born unto thee in the land of Egypt before I came unto thee into Egypt, *are* mine; as Reuben and Simeon, they shall be mine.
 
 [6 ](/kjv/genesis/48/6) And thy issue, which thou begettest after them, shall be thine, *and* shall be called after the name of their brethren in their inheritance.
 
 [7 ](/kjv/genesis/48/7) And as for me, when I came from Padan, Rachel died by me in the land of Canaan in the way, when yet *there was* but a little way to come unto Ephrath: and I buried her there in the way of Ephrath; the same *is* Beth-lehem.
 
 [8 ](/kjv/genesis/48/8) And Israel beheld Joseph’s sons, and said, Who *are* these?
 
 [9 ](/kjv/genesis/48/9) And Joseph said unto his father, They *are* my sons, whom God hath given me in this *place*. And he said, Bring them, I pray thee, unto me, and I will bless them.
 
 [10 ](/kjv/genesis/48/10) Now the eyes of Israel were dim for age, *so that* he could not see. And he brought them near unto him; and he kissed them, and embraced them.*
