Genesis 47:29-30

29When 12the time for Israel to die drew near, he called his son Joseph and said to him, “Please, if I have found favor in your sight, 3place now your hand under my thigh and 4deal with me in kindness and 5faithfulness. Please do not bury me in Egypt,

30but when I 6lie down with my fathers, you shall carry me out of Egypt and bury me in 7their burial place.” And he said, “I will do as you have said.”
