01:050:001 And Joseph fell upon his father's face, and wept upon him, and
kissed him.
01:050:002 And Joseph commanded his servants the physicians to embalm his
father: and the physicians embalmed Israel.
01:050:003 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.
01:050:004 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,
01:050:005 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.
01:050:006 And Pharaoh said, Go up, and bury thy father, according as he made thee swear.
01:050:007 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,
01:050:008 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.
01:050:009 And there went up with him both chariots and horsemen: and it was a very great company.
01:050:010 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.
