GENESIS 48
Manasseh and Ephraim
1Some time later Joseph was told, โYour father is ill.โ So he took his two sons Manasseh and Ephraim along with him. 2When Jacob was told, โYour son Joseph has come to you,โ Israel rallied his strength and sat up on the bed.
3Jacob said to Joseph, โGod Almighty appeared to me at Luz in the land of Canaan, and there he blessed me 4and said to me, โI am going to make you fruitful and increase your numbers. I will make you a community of peoples, and I will give this land as an everlasting possession to your descendants after you.โ
5โNow then, your two sons born to you in Egypt before I came to you here will be reckoned as mine; Ephraim and Manasseh will be mine, just as Reuben and Simeon are mine. 6Any children born to you after them will be yours; in the territory they inherit they will be reckoned under the names of their brothers. 7As I was returning from Paddan, to my sorrow Rachel died in the land of Canaan while we were still on the way, a little distance from Ephrath. So I buried her there beside the road to Ephrathโ (that is, Bethlehem).
8When Israel saw the sons of Joseph, he asked, โWho are these?โ
9โThey are the sons God has given me here,โ Joseph said to his father.
Then Israel said, โBring them to me so I may bless them.โ
10Now Israelโs eyes were failing because of old age, and he could hardly see. So Joseph brought his sons close to him, and his father kissed them and embraced them.
11Israel said to Joseph, โI never expected to see your face again, and now God has allowed me to see your children too.โ
12Then Joseph removed them from Israelโs knees and bowed down with his face to the ground. 13And Joseph took both of them, Ephraim on his right toward Israelโs left hand and Manasseh on his left toward Israelโs right hand, and brought them close to him. 14But Israel reached out his right hand and put it on Ephraimโs head, though he was the younger, and crossing his arms, he put his left hand on Manassehโs head, even though Manasseh was the firstborn.
15Then he blessed Joseph and said,
โMay the God before whom my fathers
Abraham and Isaac walked faithfully,
the God who has been my shepherd
all my life to this day,
16the Angel who has delivered me from all harm
โmay he bless these boys.
May they be called by my name
and the names of my fathers Abraham and Isaac,
and may they increase greatly
on the earth.โ
17When Joseph saw his father placing his right hand on Ephraimโs head he was displeased; so he took hold of his fatherโs hand to move it from Ephraimโs head to Manassehโs head. 18Joseph said to him, โNo, my father, this one is the firstborn; put your right hand on his head.โ
19But his father refused and said, โI know, my son, I know. He too will become a people, and he too will become great. Nevertheless, his younger brother will be greater than he, and his descendants will become a group of nations.โ 20He blessed them that day and said,
โIn your name will Israel pronounce this blessing:
โMay God make you like Ephraim and Manasseh.โโโ
So he put Ephraim ahead of Manasseh.
21Then Israel said to Joseph, โI am about to die, but God will be with you and take you back to the land of your fathers. 22And to you I give one more ridge of land than to your brothers, the ridge I took from the Amorites with my sword and my bow.โ
GENESIS 49
Jacob Blesses His Sons
1Then Jacob called for his sons and said: โGather around so I can tell you what will happen to you in days to come.
2โAssemble and listen, sons of Jacob;
listen to your father Israel.
3โReuben, you are my firstborn,
my might, the first sign of my strength,
excelling in honor, excelling in power.
4Turbulent as the waters, you will no longer excel,
for you went up onto your fatherโs bed,
onto my couch and defiled it.
5โSimeon and Levi are brothersโ
their swords are weapons of violence.
6Let me not enter their council,
let me not join their assembly,
for they have killed men in their anger
and hamstrung oxen as they pleased.
7Cursed be their anger, so fierce,
and their fury, so cruel!
I will scatter them in Jacob
and disperse them in Israel.
8โJudah, your brothers will praise you;
your hand will be on the neck of your enemies;
your fatherโs sons will bow down to you.
9You are a lionโs cub, Judah;
you return from the prey, my son.
Like a lion he crouches and lies down,
like a lionessโwho dares to rouse him?
10The scepter will not depart from Judah,
nor the rulerโs staff from between his feet,
until he to whom it belongs shall come
and the obedience of the nations shall be his.
11He will tether his donkey to a vine,
his colt to the choicest branch;
he will wash his garments in wine,
his robes in the blood of grapes.
12His eyes will be darker than wine,
his teeth whiter than milk.
13โZebulun will live by the seashore
and become a haven for ships;
his border will extend toward Sidon.
14โIssachar is a rawboned donkey
lying down among the sheep pens.
15When he sees how good is his resting place
and how pleasant is his land,
he will bend his shoulder to the burden
and submit to forced labor.
16โDan will provide justice for his people
as one of the tribes of Israel.
17Dan will be a snake by the roadside,
a viper along the path,
that bites the horseโs heels
so that its rider tumbles backward.
18โI look for your deliverance, Lord.
19โGad will be attacked by a band of raiders,
but he will attack them at their heels.
20โAsherโs food will be rich;
he will provide delicacies fit for a king.
21โNaphtali is a doe set free
that bears beautiful fawns.
22โJoseph is a fruitful vine,
a fruitful vine near a spring,
whose branches climb over a wall.
23With bitterness archers attacked him;
they shot at him with hostility.
24But his bow remained steady,
his strong arms stayed limber,
because of the hand of the Mighty One of Jacob,
because of the Shepherd, the Rock of Israel,
25because of your fatherโs God, who helps you,
because of the Almighty, who blesses you
with blessings of the skies above,
blessings of the deep springs below,
blessings of the breast and womb.
26Your fatherโs blessings are greater
than the blessings of the ancient mountains,
than the bounty of the age-old hills.
Let all these rest on the head of Joseph,
on the brow of the prince among his brothers.
27โBenjamin is a ravenous wolf;
in the morning he devours the prey,
in the evening he divides the plunder.โ
28All these are the twelve tribes of Israel, and this is what their father said to them when he blessed them, giving each the blessing appropriate to him.
The Death of Jacob
29Then he gave them these instructions: โI am about to be gathered to my people. Bury me with my fathers in the cave in the field of Ephron the Hittite, 30the cave in the field of Machpelah, near Mamre in Canaan, which Abraham bought along with the field as a burial place from Ephron the Hittite. 31There Abraham and his wife Sarah were buried, there Isaac and his wife Rebekah were buried, and there I buried Leah. 32The field and the cave in it were bought from the Hittites.โ
33When Jacob had finished giving instructions to his sons, he drew his feet up into the bed, breathed his last and was gathered to his people.
MATTHEW 15
29Jesus left there and went along the Sea of Galilee. Then he went up on a mountainside and sat down. 30Great crowds came to him, bringing the lame, the blind, the crippled, the mute and many others, and laid them at his feet; and he healed them. 31The people were amazed when they saw the mute speaking, the crippled made well, the lame walking and the blind seeing. And they praised the God of Israel.
32Jesus called his disciples to him and said, โI have compassion for these people; they have already been with me three days and have nothing to eat. I do not want to send them away hungry, or they may collapse on the way.โ
33His disciples answered, โWhere could we get enough bread in this remote place to feed such a crowd?โ
34 โHow many loaves do you have?โJesus asked.
โSeven,โ they replied, โand a few small fish.โ
35He told the crowd to sit down on the ground. 36Then he took the seven loaves and the fish, and when he had given thanks, he broke them and gave them to the disciples, and they in turn to the people. 37They all ate and were satisfied. Afterward the disciples picked up seven basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over. 38The number of those who ate was four thousand men, besides women and children. 39After Jesus had sent the crowd away, he got into the boat and went to the vicinity of Magadan.
MATTHEW 16
1The Pharisees and Sadducees came to Jesus and tested him by asking him to show them a sign from heaven.
2He replied, โWhen evening comes, you say, โIt will be fair weather, for the sky is red,โ3and in the morning, โToday it will be stormy, for the sky is red and overcast.โ You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but you cannot interpret the signs of the times. 4A wicked and adulterous generation looks for a sign, but none will be given it except the sign of Jonah.โJesus then left them and went away.
The Yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees
5When they went across the lake, the disciples forgot to take bread. 6โBe careful,โJesus said to them. โBe on your guard against the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees.โ
7They discussed this among themselves and said, โIt is because we didnโt bring any bread.โ
8Aware of their discussion, Jesus asked, โYou of little faith, why are you talking among yourselves about having no bread?9Do you still not understand? Donโt you remember the five loaves for the five thousand, and how many basketfuls you gathered?10Or the seven loaves for the four thousand, and how many basketfuls you gathered?11How is it you donโt understand that I was not talking to you about bread? But be on your guard against the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees.โ12Then they understood that he was not telling them to guard against the yeast used in bread, but against the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
PSALMS 20
1May the Lord answer you when you are in distress;
may the name of the God of Jacob protect you.
2May he send you help from the sanctuary
and grant you support from Zion.
3May he remember all your sacrifices
and accept your burnt offerings.
4May he give you the desire of your heart
and make all your plans succeed.
5May we shout for joy over your victory
and lift up our banners in the name of our God.
May the Lord grant all your requests.
6Now this I know:
The Lord gives victory to his anointed.
He answers him from his heavenly sanctuary
with the victorious power of his right hand.
7Some trust in chariots and some in horses,
but we trust in the name of the Lord our God.
8They are brought to their knees and fall,
but we rise up and stand firm.
9 Lord, give victory to the king!
Answer us when we call!
PROVERBS 4
20My son, pay attention to what I say;
turn your ear to my words.
21Do not let them out of your sight,
keep them within your heart;
22for they are life to those who find them
and health to oneโs whole body.
23Above all else, guard your heart,
for everything you do flows from it.
24Keep your mouth free of perversity;
keep corrupt talk far from your lips.
25Let your eyes look straight ahead;
fix your gaze directly before you.
26Give careful thought to the paths for your feet
and be steadfast in all your ways.
27Do not turn to the right or the left;
keep your foot from evil.
