Genesis 50:4-6 ▼

4 When the period of mourning was over, Joseph spoke to Pharaoh’s household. “If you please, appeal to Pharaoh, saying:

5 My father made me swear: ‘I am dying. Bury me in my grave that I have prepared for myself in the land of Canaan.’ So now let me go up to bury my father. Then I will come back.”

6 Pharaoh replied, “Go and bury your father, as he made you promise on oath.”
