Ἐμοί εἰσιν Ἐφραῒμ καὶ Μανασσῆς· ὡς Ῥουβὴμ καὶ Συμεὼν ἔσονταί μοι. Ὡς Ῥουβὴμ, καὶ Ἐφραῒμ· ἀμφότεροι γὰρ πρωτότοκοι· ὡς Μανασσῆς, καὶ Συμεών· ἑκάτερος γὰρ τῇ μητρὶ αὐτῶν δεύτερος. Τὰ δὲ ἔκγονα, ἂ ἐὰν γεννήσῃς μετὰ ταῦτα, ἔσονται ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματι τῶν ἀδελφῶν αὐτῶ· κληθήσονται ἐν τοῖς ἐκείνων κλήροις. Οἱ ἐσόμενοι, φησὶν, ἕτεροι παῖδές σου ταῖς ἐπωνύμοις φυλαῖς τῶν ἀδελφῶν αὑτῶν ταχθήσονται ἐν τῇ κληροδοσίᾳ.
