So now let me go and put my father in his last resting-place, and I will come back again. <\/br><strong>6<\/strong> And Pharaoh said, Go up and put your father to rest, as you gave your oath to him. <\/br><strong>7<\/strong> So Joseph went up to put his father in his last resting-place; and with him went all the servants of Pharaoh, and the chief men of his house and all the chiefs of the land of Egypt, <\/br><strong>8<\/strong> And all the family of Joseph, and his brothers and his father&#8217;s people: only their little ones and their flocks and herds they did not take with them from the land of Goshen. <\/br><strong>9<\/strong> And carriages went up with him and horsemen, a great army. <\/br><strong>10<\/strong> And they came to the grain-floor of Atad on the other side of Jordan, and there they gave the last honours to Jacob, with great and bitter sorrow, weeping for their father for seven days. <\/br><strong>11<\/strong> And when the people of the land, the people of Canaan, at the grain-floor of Atad, saw their grief, they said, Great is the grief of the Egyptians: so the place was named Abel-mizraim, on the other side of Jordan. <\/br><strong>12<\/strong> So his sons did as he had given them orders to do: <\/br><strong>13<\/strong> For they took him into the land of Canaan and put him to rest in the hollow rock in the field of Machpelah, which Abraham got with the field, for a resting-place, from Ephron the Hittite at Mamre. <\/br><strong>14<\/strong> And when his father had been put to rest, Joseph and his brothers and all who had gone with him, went back to Egypt. <\/br><strong>15<\/strong> Now after the death of their father, Joseph&#8217;s brothers said to themselves, It may be that Joseph&#8217;s heart will be turned against us, and he will give us punishment for all the evil which we did to him. <\/br><strong>16<\/strong> So they sent word to Joseph, saying, Your father, before his death, gave us orders, saying, <\/br><strong>17<\/strong> You are to say to Joseph, Let the wrongdoing of your brothers be overlooked, and the evil they did to you: now, if it is your pleasure, let the sin of the servants of your father&#8217;s God have forgiveness. And at these words, Joseph was overcome with weeping. <\/br><strong>18<\/strong> Then his brothers went, and falling at his feet, said, Truly, we are your servants. <\/br><strong>19<\/strong> And Joseph said, Have no fear: am I in the place of God? <\/br><strong>20<\/strong> As for you, it was in your mind to do me evil, but God has given a happy outcome, the salvation of numbers of people, as you see today. <\/br><strong>21<\/strong> So now, have no fear: for I will take care of you and your little ones. So he gave them comfort with kind words. <\/br><strong>22<\/strong> Now Joseph and all his father&#8217;s family went on living in Egypt: and the years of Joseph&#8217;s life were a hundred and ten. <\/br><strong>23<\/strong> And Joseph saw Ephraim&#8217;s children of the third generation: and the children of Machir, the son of Manasseh, came to birth on Joseph&#8217;s knees. <\/br><strong>24<\/strong> Then Joseph said to his brothers, The time of my death has come; but God will keep you in mind and take you out of this land into the land which he gave by his oath to Abraham and Isaac and Jacob. <\/br><strong>25<\/strong> Then Joseph made the children of Israel take an oath, saying, God will certainly give effect to his word, and you are to take my bones away from here. <\/br><strong>26<\/strong> So Joseph came to his death, being a hundred and ten years old: and they made his body ready, and he was put in a chest in Egypt. <\/br><script
