“ Now then, two sons were born to you in Egypt. It happened before I came to you here. They will be counted as my own sons. Ephraim and Manasseh will belong to me, in the same way that Reuben and Simeon belong to me.

Manasseh will receive one share. It will border the territory of Naphtali from east to west.Ephraim will receive one share. It will border the territory of Manasseh from east to west.Reuben will receive one share. It will border the territory of Ephraim from east to west.

“ Give the Israelites a command. Tell them,‘ You are going to enter Canaan. The land will be given to you as your own. Here are the borders it must have.“‘ Your southern border will include part of the Desert of Zin. It will be along the border of Edom. Your southern border will start in the east from the southern end of the Dead Sea.It will cross south of Scorpion Pass. It will continue on to Zin. From there it will go south of Kadesh Barnea. Then it will go to Hazar Addar and over to Azmon.There it will turn and join the Wadi of Egypt. It will come to an end at the Mediterranean Sea.Your western border will be the coast of the Mediterranean Sea. That will be your border on the west.For your northern border, run a line from the Mediterranean Sea to Mount Hor.Continue it from Mount Hor to Lebo Hamath. Then the border will go to Zedad.It will continue to Ziphron. It will come to an end at Hazar Enan. That will be your border on the north.For your eastern border, run a line from Hazar Enan to Shepham.The border will go down from Shepham to Riblah. Riblah is on the east side of Ain. From there the border will continue along the slopes east of the Sea of Galilee.Then the border will go down along the Jordan River. It will come to an end at the Dead Sea.“‘ That will be your land. And those will be its borders on every side.’ ”

In those days the people of Judah will join the people of Israel. Together they will come from a land in the north. They will come to the land I gave to your people of long ago. I wanted them to have it as their very own.

Reuben was the oldest son of Israel. But he slept with his father’s concubine. By doing that, he made his father’s bed“ unclean.” That’s why his rights as the oldest son were given to the sons of Joseph, the son of Israel. So Reuben isn’t listed in the family history as the one who had the rights of the oldest son.

“ At that time I will be the God of all the families of Israel,” announces the Lord.“ And they will be my people.”

Your father’s blessings are great. They are greater than the blessings from the age- old mountains. They are greater than the gifts from the ancient hills. Let all those blessings rest on the head of Joseph. Let them rest on the head of the one who is prince among his brothers.
