Genesis 50:22-26 - The Death Of Joseph

22 Joseph continued to live in Egypt with his father's family. He was a hundred and ten years old when he died. 23 Joseph lived long enough to see Ephraim's children and grandchildren. He also lived to see the children of Manasseh's son Machir. He welcomed them into his family.

24 Before Joseph died, he told his brothers: I will not live much longer. God will take care of you. He will lead you out of Egypt to the land he promised Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. 25 Promise me that you will take my body with you when God leads you to that land.

26 Joseph died in Egypt at the age of one hundred and ten. His body was embalmed and put in a coffin.
