Genesis 50:4-13
4And when the daysH3117 of weeping for him were past, JosephH3130 spake unto the houseH1004 of PharaohH6547, sayingH559, IfH518 nowH4994 I have foundH4672 graceH2580 in your eyesH5869, speakH1696, I prayH4994 youH518, in the earsH241 of PharaohH6547, sayingH559,
5My fatherH1 madeH7650 meH4994 swearH7650, sayingH559, LoH2009, I dieH4191: in my graveH6913 whichH834 I have digged for meH4994 in the landH776 of CanaanH3667, there shalt thou buryH6912 meH4994. NowH6258 therefore letH4994 meH4994 goH5927 upH5927, I prayH4994 thee, and buryH6912 my fatherH1, and I will comeH5927 againH7725.
6And PharaohH6547 saidH559, GoH5927 upH5927, and buryH6912 thy fatherH1, according as he madeH7650 thee swearH7650.
7And JosephH3130 wentH5927 upH5927 to buryH6912 his fatherH1: and with him wentH5927 upH5927 allH3605 the servantsH5650 of PharaohH6547, the eldersH2205 of his houseH1004, and allH3605 the eldersH2205 of the landH776 of EgyptH4714,
8and allH3605 the houseH1004 of JosephH3130, and his brethrenH251, and his father’sH1 houseH1004: onlyH7535 their littleH2945 onesH2945, and their flocksH6629, and their herdsH1241, they leftH5800 in the landH776 of GoshenH1657.
9And there wentH5927 upH5927 with him bothH1571 chariotsH7393 and horsemenH6571: and it was a veryH3966 greatH3966 companyH4264.
10And they cameH935 to the threshing-floor of AtadH329, whichH834 is beyondH5676 JordanH3383, and there they lamentedH5594 with a veryH3966 greatH1419 and sore lamentationH4553: and he madeH6213 a mourningH60 for his fatherH1 sevenH7651 daysH3117.
11And when the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776, the CanaanitesH3669, sawH7200 the mourningH60 in the floorH1637 of AtadH329, they saidH559, This is a grievousH3515 mourningH60 to the EgyptiansH4713: wherefore the nameH8034 of it was calledH7121 Abel-mizraimH67, whichH834 is beyondH5676 JordanH3383.
12And his sonsH1121 didH6213 unto him according as he commandedH6680 them:
13for his sonsH1121 carriedH5375 him intoH5921 the landH776 of CanaanH3667, and buriedH6912 him in the caveH4631 of the fieldH7704 of MachpelahH4375, whichH834 AbrahamH85 boughtH7069 with the fieldH7704, for a possessionH272 of a buryingplace, of EphronH6085 the HittiteH2850, beforeH6440 MamreH4471.
