- "Forª the¹ promiseª isª° unto you,ª andª to yourª children,ª andª to allª that¹ are afar off,ªª [even] as many asª¹ the Lordª ourª Godª shall call.ª²°" {Act 2:39} + "Menª [and] brethren,ª childrenª of the stockª of Abraham,ª andª whosoever amongª youª fearethª° God,ª to youª is²° the¹ wordª of thisª salvationª sent.ª°" {Act 13:26} + "Now¹ therefore restoreª° the manª [his] wife;ª for¹ he¹ [is] a prophet,ª and he shall prayª° for¹ thee,² and thou shalt live:ª° and if¹ thou restoreª° [her] not,¹ knowª° thou that¹ thou shalt surely²° die,ª° thou,¹ and all¹ that¹ [are] thine." {Gen 20:7} + "And he said,ª° Is not he rightlyª namedªª° Jacob?ª for he hath supplanted¹ me²° theseª two times:ª he took awayª°¹ my birthright;ª and, behold,¹ now¹ he hath taken awayª° my blessing.ª And he said,ª° Hast thou not¹ reservedª° a blessingª for me? ... And by¹ thy swordª shalt thou live,ª° and shalt serveª° thy brother;ª and it shall come to pass¹ when¹ thou shalt have the dominion,ª° that thou shalt breakª° his yokeª from off¹¹ thy neck.ª" {Gen 27:36-40} + "And Israelª stretched outª°¹ his right hand,ª and laidª° [it] upon¹ Ephraim'sª head,ª who¹ [was] the younger,ª and his left handª upon¹ Manasseh'sª head,ª guiding²° his hands² wittingly;ª°¹¹ for¹ Manassehª [was] the firstborn.ª ... And he blessedª° them that¹ day,ª saying,ª° In thee shall Israelª bless,ª° saying,ª° Godª makeª° thee as Ephraimª and as Manasseh:ª and he setª°¹ Ephraimª beforeª Manasseh.ª" {Gen 48:14-20} + "And Jacobª calledª° unto¹ his sons,ª and said,ª° Gather yourselves together,ª° that I may tellª° you [that]¹ which¹ shall befallª° you in the lastª days.ª ...
