Genesis 50:1-3
1599 Geneva Bible
50 1 Jacob is buried. 19 Joseph forgiveth his brethren. 23 He seeth his children’s children. 26 He dieth.
1 Then Joseph fell upon his father’s face and wept upon him, and kissed him.
2 And Joseph commanded his servants the [a]physicians to embalm his father, and the physicians embalmed Israel.
3 So forty days were accomplished (for so long did the days of them that were embalmed last) and the Egyptians bewailed him [b]seventy days.
