01_GEN_50_01 And Joseph fell upon his father's face , And wept upon him , And kissed him .
01_GEN_50_02 And Joseph commanded his servants the physicians to embalm his Father : And the physicians embalmed Israel .
01_GEN_50_03 And forty days were fulfilled for him ; for So are fulfilled the days of those which are embalmed : And the Egyptians mourned for him threescore And ten days .
01_GEN_50_04 And when the days of his mourning were past , Joseph spake unto the house of Pharaoh , saying , if now I have found grace in your eyes , speak , I pray you , in the ears of Pharaoh , saying ,
01_GEN_50_05 my Father made me swear , saying , Lo , I die : in my grave which I have digged for me in the land of Canaan , there shalt thou bury me . now therefore let me go up , I pray thee , And bury my Father , And I will come again .
01_GEN_50_06 And Pharaoh said , go up , And bury thy Father , according as he made thee swear .
01_GEN_50_07 And Joseph went up to bury his Father : And with him went up all the servants of Pharaoh , the elders of his house , And all the elders of the land of Egypt ,
01_GEN_50_08 And all the house of Joseph , And his brethren , And his father's house : only their little ones , And their flocks , And their herds , they left in the land of Goshen .
01_GEN_50_09 And there went up with him Both chariots And horsemen : And it was A very great company .
01_GEN_50_10 And they came to the threshingfloor of Atad , which [ Is ] beyond Jordan , And there they mourned with A great And very sore lamentation : And he made A mourning for his Father seven days .
01_GEN_50_11 And when the inhabitants of the land , the Canaanites , saw the mourning in the floor of Atad , they said , this [ Is ] A grievous mourning to the Egyptians : Wherefore the name of it was called Abelmizraim , which [ Is ] beyond Jordan .
01_GEN_50_12 And his sons did unto him according as he commanded them :
01_GEN_50_13 for his sons carried him into the land of Canaan , And buried him in the cave of the field of Machpelah , which Abraham bought with the field for A possession of A buryingplace of Ephron the Hittite , before Mamre .
01_GEN_50_14 And Joseph returned into Egypt , he , And his brethren , And all that went up with him to bury his Father , after he had buried his Father .
01_GEN_50_15 And when Joseph's brethren saw that their Father was dead , they said , Joseph will Peradventure hate us , And will certainly requite us all the evil which we did unto him .
01_GEN_50_16 And they sent A messenger unto Joseph , saying , thy Father did command before he died , saying ,
01_GEN_50_17 So shall ye say unto Joseph , forgive , I pray thee now , the trespass of thy brethren , And their sin ; for they did unto thee evil : And now , we pray thee , forgive the trespass of the servants of the God of thy Father . And Joseph wept when they spake unto him .
01_GEN_50_18 And his brethren also went And fell down before his face ; And they said , behold , we [ be ] thy servants .
01_GEN_50_19 And Joseph said unto them , Fear not : for [ am ] I in the place of God ?
01_GEN_50_20 but as for you , ye thought evil against me ; [ but ] God meant it unto good , to bring to pass , as [ it Is ] this day , to save much people alive .
01_GEN_50_21 now therefore Fear ye not : I will nourish you , And your little ones . And he comforted them , And spake kindly unto them .
01_GEN_50_22 And Joseph dwelt in Egypt , he , And his father's house : And Joseph lived an hundred And ten years .
01_GEN_50_23 And Joseph saw Ephraim's children of the third [ generation ] : the children also of Machir the son of Manasseh were brought up upon Joseph's knees .
01_GEN_50_24 And Joseph said unto his brethren , I die : And God will surely visit you , And bring you out of this land unto the land which he sware to Abraham , to Isaac , And to Jacob .
01_GEN_50_25 And Joseph took an oath of the children of Israel , saying , God will surely visit you , And ye shall carry up my bones from hence .
01_GEN_50_26 So Joseph died , [ being ] an hundred And ten years old : And they embalmed him , And he was put in A coffin in Egypt .
