50:1

And Joseph
<03130>

fell
<05307> (8799)

upon his father's
<01>

face
<06440>_,

and wept
<01058> (8799)

upon him, and kissed
<05401> (8799)

him.

50:2

And Joseph
<03130>

commanded
<06680> (8762)

his servants
<05650>

the physicians
<07495> (8802)

to embalm
<02590> (8800)

his father
<01>_:

and the physicians
<07495> (8802)

embalmed
<02590> (8799)

<03478>_.

50:3

And forty
<0705>

days
<03117>

were fulfilled
<04390> (8799)

for him; for so are fulfilled
<04390> (8799)

the days
<03117>

of those which are embalmed
<02590> (8803)_:

and the Egyptians
<04714>

mourned
<01058> (8799)

for him threescore and ten
<07657>

<03117>_.

{mourned: Heb. wept}

50:4

And when the days
<03117>

of his mourning
<01068>

were past
<05674> (8799)_,

Joseph
<03130>

spake
<01696> (8762)

unto the house
<01004>

of Pharaoh
<06547>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

If now I have found
<04672> (8804)

grace
<02580>

in your eyes
<05869>_,

speak
<01696> (8761)_,

I pray you, in the ears
<0241>

of Pharaoh
<06547>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

50:5

My father
<01>

made me swear
<07650> (8689)_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Lo
<02009>_,

I die
<04191> (8801)_:

in my grave
<06913>

which I have digged
<03738> (8804)

for me in the land
<0776>

of Canaan
<03667>_,

there shalt thou bury me
<06912> (8799)_.

Now therefore let me go up
<05927> (8799)_,

I pray thee, and bury
<06912> (8799)

my father
<01>_,

and I will come again
<07725> (8799)_.

50:6

And Pharaoh
<06547>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Go up
<05927> (8798)_,

and bury
<06912> (8798)

thy father
<01>_,

according as he made thee swear
<07650> (8689)_.

50:7

And Joseph
<03130>

went up
<05927> (8799)

to bury
<06912> (8800)

his father
<01>_:

and with him went up
<05927> (8799)

all the servants
<05650>

of Pharaoh
<06547>_,

the elders
<02205>

of his house
<01004>_,

and all the elders
<02205>

of the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_,

50:8

And all the house
<01004>

of Joseph
<03130>_,

and his brethren
<0251>_,

and his father's
<01>

house
<01004>_:

only their little ones
<02945>_,

and their flocks
<06629>_,

and their herds
<01241>_,

they left
<05800> (8804)

in the land
<0776>

of Goshen
<01657>_.

50:9

And there went up
<05927> (8799)

with him both chariots
<07393>

and horsemen
<06571>_:

and it was a very
<03966>

great
<03515>

company
<04264>_.

50:10

And they came
<0935> (8799)

to the threshingfloor
<01637>

of Atad
<0329>_,

which [is] beyond
<05676>

Jordan
<03383>_,

and there they mourned
<05594> (8799)

with a great
<01419>

and very
<03966>

sore
<03515>

lamentation
<04553>_:

and he made
<06213> (8799)

a mourning
<060>

for his father
<01>

seven
<07651>

days
<03117>_.

50:11

And when the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)

of the land
<0776>_,

the Canaanites
<03669>_,

saw
<07200> (8799)

the mourning
<060>

in the floor
<01637>

of Atad
<0329>_,

they said
<0559> (8799)_,

This [is] a grievous
<03515>

mourning
<060>

to the Egyptians
<04714>_:

wherefore the name of it
<08034>

was called
<07121> (8804)

Abelmizraim
<067>_,

which [is] beyond
<05676>

Jordan
<03383>_.

{Abelmizraim: that is, The mourning of the Egyptians}

50:12

And his sons
<01121>

did
<06213> (8799)

unto him according as he commanded
<06680> (8765)

them:

50:13

For his sons
<01121>

carried
<05375> (8799)

him into the land
<0776>

of Canaan
<03667>_,

and buried
<06912> (8799)

him in the cave
<04631>

of the field
<07704>

of Machpelah
<04375>_,

which Abraham
<085>

bought
<07069> (8804)

with the field
<07704>

for a possession
<0272>

of a buryingplace
<06913>

of Ephron
<06085>

the Hittite
<02850>_,

before
<06440>

Mamre
<04471>_.

50:14

And Joseph
<03130>

returned
<07725> (8799)

into Egypt
<04714>_,

he, and his brethren
<0251>_,

and all that went up
<05927> (8802)

with him to bury
<06912> (8800)

his father
<01>_,

after
<0310>

he had buried
<06912> (8800)

his father
<01>_.

50:15

And when Joseph's
<03130>

brethren
<0251>

saw
<07200> (8799)

that their father
<01>

was dead
<04191> (8804)_,

they said
<0559> (8799)_,

Joseph
<03130>

will peradventure
<03863>

hate us
<07852> (8799)_,

and will certainly
<07725> (8687)

requite
<07725> (8686)

us all the evil
<07451>

which we did
<01580> (8804)

unto him.

50:16

And they sent a messenger
<06680> (8762)

unto Joseph
<03130>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Thy father
<01>

did command
<06680> (8765)

before
<06440>

he died
<04194>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

{sent: Heb. charged}

50:17

So shall ye say
<0559> (8799)

unto Joseph
<03130>_,

Forgive
<05375> (8798)_,

I pray thee
<0577>

now, the trespass
<06588>

of thy brethren
<0251>_,

and their sin
<02403>_;

for they did
<01580> (8804)

unto thee evil
<07451>_:

and now, we pray thee, forgive
<05375> (8798)

the trespass
<06588>

of the servants
<05650>

of the God
<0430>

of thy father
<01>_.

And Joseph
<03130>

wept
<01058> (8799)

when they spake
<01696> (8763)

unto him.

50:18

And his brethren
<0251>

also went
<03212> (8799)

and fell down
<05307> (8799)

before his face
<06440>_;

and they said
<0559> (8799)_,

Behold, we [be] thy servants
<05650>_.

50:19

And Joseph
<03130>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, Fear
<03372> (8799)

not: for [am] I in the place of God
<0430>_?

50:20

But as for you, ye thought
<02803> (8804)

evil
<07451>

against me; [but] God
<0430>

meant it
<02803> (8804)

unto good
<02896>_,

to
<04616>

bring to pass
<06213> (8800)_,

as [it is] this day
<03117>_,

to save
<02421> (0)

much
<07227>

people
<05971>

alive
<02421> (8687)_.

50:21

Now therefore fear
<03372> (8799)

ye not: I will nourish
<03557> (8770)

you, and your little ones
<02945>_.

And he comforted
<05162> (8762)

them, and spake
<01696> (8762)

kindly
<03820>

unto them. {kindly...: Heb. to their hearts}

50:22

And Joseph
<03130>

dwelt
<03427> (8799)

in Egypt
<04714>_,

he, and his father's
<01>

house
<01004>_:

and Joseph
<03130>

lived
<02421> (8799)

an hundred
<03967>

and ten
<06235>

years
<08141>_.

50:23

And Joseph
<03130>

saw
<07200> (8799)

Ephraim's
<0669>

children
<01121>

of the third
<08029>

[generation]: the children
<01121>

also of Machir
<04353>

the son
<01121>

of Manasseh
<04519>

were brought up
<03205> (8795)

upon Joseph's
<03130>

knees
<01290>_.
