And he charged them, saying: I am now going to be gathered to my people: bury me with my fathers in the double cave, which is in the field of Ephron the Hethite, 30Over against Mambre, in the land of Chanaan, which Abraham bought together with the field, of Ephron the Hethite, for a possession to bury in. 31There they buried him, and Sara his wife: there was Isaac buried with Rebecca, his wife: there also Lia doth lie buried. 32And when he had ended the commandments, wherewith he instructed his sons, he drew up his feet upon the bed, and died: and he was gathered to his people. 1And when Joseph saw this, he fell upon his father's face, weeping and kissing him. 2And he commanded his servants, the physicians, to embalm his father. 3And while they were fulfilling his commands, there passed forty days: for this was the manner with bodies that were embalmed, and Egypt mourned for him seventy days. 4And the time of the mourning being expired, Joseph spoke to the family of Pharao: If I have found favour in your sight, speak in the ears of Pharao: 5For my father made me swear to him, saying: Behold I die; thou shalt bury me in my sepulchre which I have digged for myself in the land of Chanaan. So I will go up and bury my father, and return. 6And Pharao said to him: Go up and bury thy father according as he made thee swear. 7So he went up, and there went with him all the ancients of Pharao's house, and all the elders of the land of Egypt. 8And the house of Joseph with his brethren, except their children, and their flocks and herds, which they left in the land of Gessen. 9He had also in his train chariots and horsemen: and it was a great company. 10And they came to the threshing floor of Atad, which is situated beyond the Jordan: where celebrating the exequies with a great and vehement lamentation, they spent full seven days. 11And when the inhabitants of Chanaan saw this, they said: This is a great mourning to the Egyptians. And therefore the name of that place was called, The mourning of Egypt. 12So the sons of Jacob did as he had commanded them. 13And carrying him into the land of Chanaan, they buried him in the double cave, which Abraham had bought together with the field for a possession of a burying place, of Ehpron, the Hethite, over against Mambre. 14And Joseph returned into Egypt with his brethren, and all that were in his company, after he had buried his father.
