WEB · Bible Passage

Bible Text

[5] 'My father made me swear, saying, "Behold, I am dying. Bury me in my grave which I have dug for myself in the land of Canaan." Now therefore, please let me go up and bury my father, and I will come again.'" [6] Pharaoh said, "Go up, and bury your father, just like he made you swear." [7] Joseph went up to bury his father; and with him went up all the servants of Pharaoh, the elders of his house, all the elders of the land of Egypt, [8] all the house of Joseph, his brothers, and his father's house. Only their little ones, their flocks, and their herds, they left in the land of Goshen. [9] There went up with him both chariots and horsemen. It was a very great company.
