29 And the time drew nigh that Israel must die: and he called his son Joseph, and said unto him, If now I have found grace in thy sight, put, I pray thee, thy hand under my thigh, and deal kindly and truly with me; bury me not, I pray thee, in Egypt:
30 But I will lie with my fathers, and thou shalt carry me out of Egypt, and bury me in their buryingplace. And he said, I will do as thou hast said.
31 And he said, Swear unto me. And he sware unto him. And Israel bowed himself upon the bed's head.

29 Als nun die Zeit kam, daß Israel sterben sollte, rief er seinen Sohn Joseph und sprach zu ihm: Habe ich Gnade vor deinen Augen gefunden, so lege doch deine Hand unter meine Hüfte und erweise mir Liebe und Treue: Begrabe mich doch ja nicht in Ägypten! 30 Sondern ich will bei meinen Vätern liegen; darum sollst du mich aus Ägypten führen und mich in ihrem Grab begraben.
Joseph sprach: Ich will tun, wie du gesagt hast!
31 Er aber sprach: So schwöre mir! Da schwur ihm Joseph. Und Israel verbeugte sich anbetend am Kopfende des Bettes.
