Genesis 50:4 DBY

²  And Joseph commanded his servants the physicians to embalm his father. And the physicians embalmed Israel.

³  And forty days were fulfilled for him; for so are fulfilled the days of those who are embalmed. And the Egyptians mourned for him seventy days.

⁴  And when the days of his mourning were past, Joseph spoke to the house of Pharaoh, saying, If now I have found favour in your eyes, speak, I pray you, in the ears of Pharaoh, saying,

⁵  My father made me swear, saying, Behold, I die; in my grave which I have dug myself in the land of Canaan, there shalt thou bury me. And now, let me go up, I pray thee, that I may bury my father; and I will come again.

⁶  And Pharaoh said, Go up and bury thy father, according as he made thee swear.
