1And Yosef (Increaser; May God the Powerful One add [Yah]) fell upon his father’s face, and wept upon him, and kissed him. 2And Yosef commanded his servants the physicians to embalm his father: and the physicians embalmed Isra’el (he who holds onto God-The Creator). 3And forty days were fulfilled for him; for so are fulfilled the days of those which are embalmed: and the Mitzrayimot [Egyptians] (People of the Black Land) mourned for him threescore and ten days.

4And when the days of his mourning were past, Yosef spoke unto the house of Pharaoh, saying, If now I have found grace in yourⁱ eyes, speak, I pray you, in the ears of Pharaoh, saying, 5My father made me swear, saying, Lo, I die: in my grave which I have dug for me in the land of Kena’an (merchant; trader; or that humbles and subdues), there shall youⁱ bury me. Now therefore let me go up, I pray youⁱ, and bury my father, and I will come again. 6And Pharaoh (Great House) said, Go up, and bury yourⁱ father, according as he made youⁱ swear.

7And Yosef (Increaser; May God the Powerful One add [Yah]) went up to bury his father: and with him went up all the servants of Pharaoh, the elders of his house, and all the elders of the land of Mitzrayim [Egypt], 8And all the house of Yosef, and his brethren, and his father’s house: only their little ones, and their flocks, and their herds, they left in the land of Goshen [Drawing Near] (approaching; drawing near). 9And there went up with him both chariots and horsemen: and it was a very great company. 10And they came to the threshing floor of Atad (a thorn), which [is] beyond Yarden (The Descender, Descending), and there they mourned with a great and very sore lamentation: and he made a mourning for his father seven days. 11And when the inhabitants of the land, the Kena’ani (low/humbled ones; merchants), saw the mourning in the floor of Atad (a thorn), they said, This [is] a grievous mourning to the Mitzrayimot [Egyptians] (People of the Black Land): For what reason the name of it was called Avel-Mitzrayim [Egypt] (meadow of the Double Distress or Double Stronghold, Black Land [Mitzrayim] [Egypt] which [is] beyond Yarden [The Descender, Descending]).

12And his sons did unto him according as he commanded them: 13For his sons carried him into the land of Kena’an (merchant; trader; or that humbles and subdues), and buried him in the cave of the field of Makhpelah (portion; double cave), which Avraham [exalted father/Fly They Will] bought with the field for a possession of a burying place of ‘Efron (fawn-like) the Hitti (terrorists), before Mamre (firmness; fatling (fat cattle) offering). 14And Yosef (Increaser; May God the Powerful One add [Yah]) returned into Mitzrayim [Egypt] (Double Distress or Double Stronghold, Black Land), he, and his brethren, and all that went up with him to bury his father, after he had buried his father.

15And when Yosef’s brethren saw that their father was dead, they said, Yosef will perhaps hate us, and will certainly requite (repay) us all the evil which we did unto him. 16And they sent a messenger unto Yosef, saying, yourⁱ father did command before he died, saying, 17So shall you^f say unto Yosef, Forgive, I pray youⁱ now, the trespass of yourⁱ brethren, and their sin; for they did unto youⁱ evil: and now, we pray youⁱ, forgive the trespass of the servants of the God-Elohim [The Living Word - The Many Powered] of yourⁱ father. And Yosef wept when they spoke unto him. 18And his brethren also went and fell down before his face; and they said, Behold, we [be] yourⁱ servants. 19And Yosef said unto them, Fear not: for [am] I in the place of God-Elohim [The Living Word - The Many Powered]? 20But as for you, you^f thought evil against me; [but] God-Elohim [The Living Word - The Many Powered] meant it unto good, to bring to pass, as [it is] this day, to save much people alive. 21Now therefore fear you^f not: I will nourish youⁱ, and yourⁱ little ones. And he comforted them, and spoke kindly unto them.

22And Yosef dwelt in Mitzrayim [Egypt], he, and his father’s house: and Yosef lived an hundred and ten years. 23And Yosef saw Efrayim’s children of the third [generation]: the children also of Makhir (sold; selling; knowing) the son of M’nasheh (causing to forget; from a debt) were brought up upon Yosef’s (Increaser; May God the Powerful One add [Yah]) knees. 24And Yosef (Increaser; May God the Powerful One add [Yah]) said unto his brethren, I die: and God-Elohim [The Living Word - The Many Powered] will surely visit you, and bring youⁱ out of this land unto the land which he swore to Avraham [exalted father/Fly They Will], to Yitz’chak [Laughter], and to Ya’akov (he who holds onto the heel of). 25And Yosef took an oath of the children of Isra’el(he who holds onto God-The Creator), saying, God-Elohim [The Living Word - The Many Powered] will surely visit you, and you^f shall carry up my bones from hence. 26So Yosef (Increaser; May God the Powerful One add [Yah]) died, [being] an hundred and ten years old: and they embalmed him, and he was put in a coffin in Mitzrayim [Egypt] (Double Distress or Double Stronghold, Black Land).
