15 And he blessed Joseph and said,

“The God before whom my fathers, Abraham and Isaac, walked,
    The God who shepherded me all my life[a] unto this day,

    may he bless the boys.
And through them let my name be perpetuated,[b]
    and the name of my fathers, Abraham and Isaac.
And let them multiply into many in the midst of the earth.
