Genesis 41:49-52 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

49. Joseph stored so much grain that it was like the sands of the sea. He stored so much grain that it could not be measured.

50. Joseph’s wife, Asenath, was the daughter of Potiphera, the priest in the city of On. Before the first year of hunger came, Joseph and Asenath had two sons.

51. Joseph named the first son Manasseh. He was given this name because Joseph said, “God made me forget all my hard work and everything back home in my father’s house.”

52. Joseph named the second son Ephraim. Joseph gave him this name because he said, “I had great troubles, but God has made me successful in everything.”
