Genesis 50:16-1964 ·Bible in Basic English

“So they sent word to Joseph, saying, Your father, before his death, gave us orders, saying, You are to say to Joseph, Let the wrongdoing of your brothers be overlooked, and the evil they did to you: now, if it is your pleasure, let the sin of the servants of your father's God have forgiveness. And at these words, Joseph was overcome with weeping. Then his brothers went, and falling at his feet, said, Truly, we are your servants. And Joseph said, Have no fear: am I in the place of God? As for you, it was in your mind to do me evil, but God has given a happy outcome, the salvation of numbers of people, as you see today. So now, have no fear: for I will take care of you and your little ones. So he gave them comfort with kind words. Now Joseph and all his father's family went on living in Egypt: and the years of Joseph's life were a hundred and ten. And Joseph saw Ephraim's children of the third generation: and the children of Machir, the son of Manasseh, came to birth on Joseph's knees. Then Joseph said to his brothers, The time of my death has come; but God will keep you in mind and take you out of this land into the land which he gave by his oath to Abraham and Isaac and Jacob. Then Joseph made the children of Israel take an oath, saying, God will certainly give effect to his word, and you are to take my bones away from here. So Joseph came to his death, being a hundred and ten years old: and they made his body ready, and he was put in a chest in Egypt.”
