New Living Translation
Genesis 50:5-9
5Tell him that my father made me swear an oath. He said to me, ‘Listen, I am about to die. Take my body back to the land of Canaan, and bury me in the tomb I prepared for myself.’ So please allow me to go and bury my father. After his burial, I will return without delay.”
6Pharaoh agreed to Joseph’s request. “Go and bury your father, as he made you promise,” he said.
7So Joseph went up to bury his father. He was accompanied by all of Pharaoh’s officials, all the senior members of Pharaoh’s household, and all the senior officers of Egypt.
8Joseph also took his entire household and his brothers and their households. But they left their little children and flocks and herds in the land of Goshen.
9A great number of chariots and charioteers accompanied Joseph.
