Genesis 49:28-33 - The Death And Burial Of Jacob

28 These are the twelve tribes of Israel. This is how Jacob blessed each of them.

29 Jacob told his sons: Soon I will die. I want you to bury me in Machpelah Cave. 30 Abraham bought the cave from Ephron the Hittite to use as a burial place. It is near the field of Machpelah. It is also near the town of Mamre in Canaan. 31 Abraham and his wife Sarah are buried there. Isaac and his wife Rebekah are buried there. I also buried Leah there. 32 The field and the cave in it were bought from the Hittites. 33 Jacob finished giving these instructions to his sons. He pulled his feet into his bed. He took his last breath and joined his ancestors in death.
