Genesis 50:3 in Context — Genesis 50
1 Joseph se jeta sur le visage de son père, pleura sur lui, et le baisa.
2 Il ordonna aux médecins à son service d’embaumer son père, et les médecins embaumèrent Israël.
3 Quarante jours s’écoulèrent ainsi, et furent employés à l’embaumer. Et les Égyptiens le pleurèrent soixante-dix jours.
4 Quand les jours du deuil furent passés, Joseph s’adressa aux gens de la maison de Pharaon, et leur dit: Si j’ai trouvé grâce à vos yeux, rapportez, je vous prie, à Pharaon ce que je vous dis.
5 Mon père m’a fait jurer, en disant: Voici, je vais mourir! Tu m’enterreras dans le sépulcre que je me suis acheté au pays de Canaan. Je voudrais donc y monter, pour enterrer mon père; et je reviendrai.
