29When the timeH3117 drew nearH7126 for IsraelH3478 to dieH4191, he calledH7121 his sonH1121 JosephH3130 and saidH559 to him, “IfH518H4994 I have foundH4672 favorH2580 in your eyesH5869, putH7760H4994 your handH3027 underH8478 my thighH3409 and promise to showH6213 meH5978 kindnessH2617 and faithfulnessH571. Do notH408H4994 bury meH6912 in EgyptH4714, 30but when I lie downH7901 withH5973 my fathersH1, carry meH5375 out of EgyptH4714 and bury meH6912 with themH6900.”
Joseph answeredH559, “IH595 will doH6213 as you have requestedH1697.”
31“SwearH7650 to me,” Jacob saidH559.
So Joseph sworeH7650 to him, and IsraelH3478 bowedH7812 in worship atH5921 the headH7218 of his bedH4296.1
