1
And JosephH3130 fellH5307 on his father'sH1 face,H6440 and weptH1058 on him, and kissedH5401 him.
2
And JosephH3130 commandedH6680 his servantsH5650 the physiciansH7495 to embalmH2590 his father:H1 and the physiciansH7495 embalmedH2590 Israel.H3478
3
And fortyH705 daysH3117 were fulfilledH4390 for him; for soH3651 are fulfilledH4390 the daysH3117 of those which are embalmed:H2590 and the EgyptiansH4714 mournedH1058 for him three scoreH7657 and ten days.H3117
4
And when the daysH3117 of his mourningH1086 were past,H5674 JosephH3130 spokeH1696 to the houseH1004 of Pharaoh,H6547 saying,H559 IfH518 nowH4994 I have foundH4672 graceH2580 in your eyes,H5869 speak,H1696 I prayH4994 you, in the earsH241 of Pharaoh,H6547 saying,H559
5
My fatherH1 made me swear,H7650 saying,H559 See,H2009 I die:H4191 in my graveH6913 whichH834 I have digH3738 for me in the landH776 of Canaan,H3667 thereH8033 shall you buryH6912 me. NowH6258 therefore let me goH5927 up, I prayH4994 you, and buryH6912 my father,H1 and I will comeH7725 again.H7725
6
And PharaohH6547 said,H559 GoH5927 up, and buryH6912 your father,H1 according as he made you swear.H7650
7
And JosephH3130 wentH5927 up to buryH6912 his father:H1 and with him wentH5927 up allH3605 the servantsH5650 of Pharaoh,H6547 the eldersH2205 of his house,H1004 and allH3605 the eldersH2205 of the landH776 of Egypt,H4714
8
And allH3605 the houseH1004 of Joseph,H3130 and his brothers,H251 and his father'sH1 house:H1004 onlyH7535 their littleH2945 ones, and their flocks,H6629 and their herds,H1241 they leftH5800 in the landH776 of Goshen.H1657
9
And there wentH5927 up with him bothH1571 chariotsH7393 and horsemen:H6571 and it was a veryH3966 greatH3515 company.H4264
10
And they cameH935 to the threshing floorH1637 of Atad,H329 whichH834 is beyondH5676 Jordan,H3383 and thereH8033 they mournedH5594 with a greatH1419 and veryH3966 soreH3515 lamentation:H4553 and he madeH6213 a mourningH60 for his fatherH1 sevenH7651 days.H3117
11
And when the inhabitantsH3427 of the land,H776 the Canaanites,H3669 sawH7200 the mourningH60 in the floorH1637 of Atad,H329 they said,H559 ThisH2088 is a grievousH3515 mourningH60 to the Egyptians:H4714 whyH5921 H3651 the nameH8034 of it was calledH7121 Abelmizraim,H67 whichH834 is beyondH5676 Jordan.H3383
12
And his sonsH1121 didH6213 to him accordingH3651 as he commandedH6680 them:
13
For his sonsH1121 carriedH5375 him into the landH776 of Canaan,H3667 and buriedH6912 him in the caveH4631 of the fieldH7704 of Machpelah,H4375 whichH834 AbrahamH85 boughtH7069 with the fieldH7704 for a possessionH272 of a burial plotH6913 of EphronH6085 the Hittite,H2850 beforeH5921 H6440 Mamre.H4471
14
And JosephH3130 returnedH7725 into Egypt,H4714 he, and his brothers,H251 and allH3605 that wentH5927 up with him to buryH6912 his father,H1 afterH310 he had buriedH6912 his father.H1
15
And when Joseph'sH3130 brothersH251 sawH7200 that their fatherH1 was dead,H4191 they said,H559 JosephH3130 will peradventureH3863 hateH7852 us, and will certainly requiteH7725 us allH3605 the evilH7451 whichH834 we didH1580 to him.
16
And they sent a messengerH6680 to Joseph,H3130 saying,H559 Your fatherH1 did commandH6680 beforeH6440 he died,H4194 saying,H559
17
SoH3541 shall you sayH559 to Joseph,H3130 Forgive,H5375 I prayH577 you now,H4994 the trespassH6588 of your brothers,H251 and their sin;H2403 for they didH1580 to you evil:H7451 and now,H4994 we prayH4994 you, forgiveH5375 the trespassH6588 of the servantsH5650 of the GodH430 of your father.H1 And JosephH3130 weptH1058 when they spokeH1696 to him.
18
And his brothersH251 alsoH1571 wentH3212 and fellH5307 down before his face;H6440 and they said,H559 Behold,H2009 we be your servants.H5650
19
And JosephH3130 saidH559 to them, FearH3372 not: for am I in the place of God?H430
20
But as for you, you thoughtH2803 evilH7451 againstH5921 me; but GodH430 meantH2803 it to good,H2896 to bringH6213 to pass,H6213 as it is thisH2088 day,H3117 to saveH2421 muchH7227 peopleH5971 alive.H2421
21
NowH6258 therefore fearH3372 you not: I will nourishH3557 you, and your littleH2945 ones. And he comfortedH5162 them, and spokeH1696 kindlyH5921 H3820 to them.
22
And JosephH3130 dwelledH3427 in Egypt,H4714 he, and his father'sH1 house:H1004 and JosephH3130 livedH2421 an hundredH3967 and tenH6235 years.H8141
23
And JosephH3130 sawH7200 Ephraim'sH669 childrenH1121 of the thirdH8029 generation: the childrenH1121 alsoH1571 of MachirH4353 the sonH1121 of ManassehH4519 were broughtH3205 up on Joseph'sH3130 knees.H1290
24
And JosephH3130 saidH559 to his brothers,H251 I die:H4191 and GodH430 will surely visitH6485 you, and bringH5927 you out of thisH2063 landH776 to the landH776 whichH834 he sworeH7650 to Abraham,H85 to Isaac,H3327 and to Jacob.H3290
25
And JosephH3130 took an oathH7650 of the childrenH1121 of Israel,H3478 saying,H559 GodH430 will surely visitH6485 you, and you shall carryH5927 up my bonesH6106 from hence.H2088
26
So JosephH3130 died,H4191 being an hundredH3967 and tenH6235 yearsH8141 old:H1121 and they embalmedH2590 him, and he was putH3455 in a coffinH727 in Egypt.H4714
