Genesis 47:29-31

New Catholic Bible

²⁹ When the day of his death drew near, Israel summoned his son Joseph and told him, “If I have found favor in your sight, place your hand under my thigh and deal with me kindly and faithfully. Do not bury me in Egypt. ³⁰ When I lie with my fathers, carry me from Egypt and bury me in their tomb.”

³¹ “I will do as you say,” he replied.

But Jacob demanded, “Swear it to me.” He answered, “I swear it.” And he swore it. Then Israel sank back on his pillow.
