â 49:28 All these are the twelve tribes of Israel, and this is what
their father said to them when he blessed them, gi ving each the blessing
appropriate to him.
â 49:29 Then he gave them these instructions: "I am about to be gathered
to my people. Bury me with my fathers in the cave in the field of Ephron
the Hittite,
â 49:30 the cave in the field of Machpelah, near Mamre in Canaan,
which Abraham bought as a burial place from Ephron t he Hittite, along
with the field.
â 49:31 There Abraham and his wife Sarah were buried, there Isaac
and his wife Rebekah were buried, and there I buried Leah.
â 49:32 The field and the cave in it were bought from the Hittites."
â 49:33 When Jacob had finished giving instructions to his sons, he
drew his feet up into the bed, breathed his last a nd was gathered to his
people.

â 50:1 Joseph threw himself upon his father and wept over him and
kissed him.
â 50:2 Then Joseph directed the physicians in his service to embalm
his father Israel. So the physicians embalmed him,
â 50:3 taking a full forty days, for that was the time required for
embalming. And the Egyptians mourned for him seven ty days.

â 50:4 When the days of mourning had passed, Joseph said to Pharaoh's
court, "If I have found favor in your eyes, speak to Pharaoh for me. Tell
him,
â 50:5 'My father made me swear an oath and said, "I am about to die;
bury me in the tomb I dug for myself in the land of Canaan." Now let me
go up and bury my father; then I will return.'"
â 50:6 Pharaoh said, "Go up and bury your father, as he made you swear
to do."
â 50:7 So Joseph went up to bury his father. All Pharaoh's officials
accompanied him--the dignitaries of his court and all the dignitaries of
Egypt--
â 50:8 besides all the members of Joseph's household and his brothers
and those belonging to his father's household. O nly their children and
their flocks and herds were left in Goshen.
â 50:9 Chariots and horsemen also went up with him. It was a very
large company.
â 50:10 When they reached the threshing floor of Atad, near the Jordan,
they lamented loudly and bitterly; and there J oseph observed a seven-day
period of mourning for his father.
â 50:11 When the Canaanites who lived there saw the mourning at the
threshing floor of Atad, they said, "The Egyp tians are holding a solemn
ceremony of mourning." That is why that place near the Jordan is called
Abel Mizraim.
â 50:12 So Jacob's sons did as he had commanded them:
â 50:13 They carried him to the land of Canaan and buried him in the
cave in the field of Machpelah, near Mamre, which Abraham had bought as
a burial place from Ephron the Hittite, along with the field.
â 50:14 After burying his father, Joseph returned to Egypt, together
with his brothers and all the others who had gone with him to bury his
father.
â 50:15 When Joseph's brothers saw that their father was dead, they
said, "What if Joseph holds a grudge against us and pays us back for all
the wrongs we did to him?"
â50:16 ÇüÁ¦µéÀ» À§·ÎÇÏ´Â ¿ä¼Á
â 50:16 So they sent word to Joseph, saying, "Your father left these
instructions before he died:
â 50:17 'This is what you are to say to Joseph: I ask you to forgive
your brothers the sins and the wrongs they commit ted in treating you so
badly.' Now please forgive the sins of the servants of the God of your
father." When their m essage came to him, Joseph wept.
â 50:18 His brothers then came and threw themselves down before him.
"We are your slaves," they said.
â 50:19 But Joseph said to them, "Don't be afraid. Am I in the place
of God?
â 50:20 You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish
what is now being done, the saving of many lives.
â 50:21 So then, don't be afraid. I will provide for you and your
children." And he reassured them and spoke kind ly to them.

â 50:22 Joseph stayed in Egypt, along with all his father's family.
He lived a hundred and ten years
â 50:23 and saw the third generation of Ephraim's children. Also the
children of Makir son of Manasseh were placed at birth on Joseph's knees.
â 50:24 Then Joseph said to his brothers, "I am about to die. But
God will surely come to your aid and take you u p out of this land to the
land he promised on oath to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob."
â 50:25 And Joseph made the sons of Israel swear an oath and said,
"God will surely come to your aid, and then yo u must carry my bones up
from this place."
â 50:26 So Joseph died at the age of a hundred and ten. And after
they embalmed him, he was placed in a coffin in Egypt. |
