Genesis 47:29-31

Living Bible

²⁹ As the time drew near for him to die, he called for his son Joseph and said to him, “Swear to me most solemnly that you will honor this, my last request: do not bury me in Egypt. ³⁰ But when I am dead, take me out of Egypt and bury me beside my ancestors.” And Joseph promised. ³¹ “Swear that you will do it,” Jacob insisted. And Joseph did. Soon afterwards Jacob took to his bed.
