| Genesis 50: |
| 1 | And Joseph fell upon his father's face, and wept upon him, and kissed him. |
| 2 | And Joseph commanded his servants the physicians to embalm his father: and the physicians embalmed Israel. |
| 3 | And forty days were fulfilled for him; for so are fulfilled the days of those which are embalmed: and the Egyptians mourned for him threescore and ten days. |
| 4 | And when the days of his mourning were past, Joseph spake unto the house of Pharaoh, saying, If now I have found grace in your eyes, speak, I pray you, in the ears of Pharaoh, saying, |
| 5 | My father made me swear, saying, Lo, I die: in my grave which I have digged for me in the land of Canaan, there shalt thou bury me. Now therefore let me go up, I pray thee, and bury my father, and I will come again. |
| 6 | And Pharaoh said, Go up, and bury thy father, according as he made thee swear. |
| 7 | And Joseph went up to bury his father: and with him went up all the servants of Pharaoh, the elders of his house, and all the elders of the land of Egypt, |
| 8 | And all the house of Joseph, and his brethren, and his father's house: only their little ones, and their flocks, and their herds, they left in the land of Goshen. |
| 9 | And there went up with him both chariots and horsemen: and it was a very great company. |
| 10 | And they came to the threshingfloor of Atad, which is beyond Jordan, and there they mourned with a great and very sore lamentation: and he made a mourning for his father seven days. |
