Genesis 50:4-6

Evangelical Heritage Version

⁴ When the days of mourning for Jacob were past, Joseph spoke to the household of Pharaoh. He said, “If now I have found favor in your eyes, please speak directly to Pharaoh for me and say ⁵ that my father made me take an oath. He said to me, ‘Look, I am dying. Bury me in my tomb that I have dug for myself in the land of Canaan.’ Now therefore, please let me go up and bury my father, and I will return here again.”

⁶ Pharaoh said, “Go up and bury your father, just as he made you swear to do.”
