UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-pronouns

וַ⁠יַּ֤רְא יוֹסֵף֙

and=he/it_saw Yōşēf

Alternate translation: “So he was able to see” or “He lived long enough to know”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

For some languages it is better to change the order of the phrases in this sentence and say, “He also lived to see his son Manasseh’s son Machir grow up, as well as Machir’s children.” or “He also lived to see the children of his grandson Machir grow up, who was Manasseh’s son.” Do what is best in your language. Also, the phrase “born on Joseph’s knees” is an idiom that means Joseph recognized Makir’s children as his descendants and that they grew up during his lifetime and spent time with him.
