29 And the time approached for Israel to die, so he summoned his son Joseph and said to him, |If now I have found favor in your sight, please put your hand under my thigh and deal kindly and truly with me. Please do not bury me in Egypt, 30 but when I lie down with my fathers you must carry me out of Egypt and bury me in their burial place.| And he said, |I will do what you have asked.| 31 Then he said, |Take an oath to me,| and he took an oath to him. Then Israel bowed over the top of his staff. Genesis 47:29-31, New Heart English Bible. Public domain.
