Genesis 49:29-33

29Then he charged them and said to them, “I am about to be 1gathered to my people; 2bury me with my fathers in the cave that is in 3the field of Ephron the Hittite,

30in the 4cave that is in the field of Machpelah, which is before Mamre, in the land of Canaan, which Abraham bought along with the field from Ephron the Hittite for a 5burial site.

31There they buried 6Abraham and his wife 7Sarah, there they buried 8Isaac and his wife Rebekah, and there I buried Leah--

32the field and the cave that is in it, purchased from the sons of Heth.”

33When Jacob finished charging his sons, he drew his feet into the bed and 9breathed his last, and was 10gathered to his people.
