Genesis 47:28 in Context — Genesis 47

26 Então José o pôs por estatuto até hoje sobre a terra do Egito, assinalando para Faraó o quinto; exceto somente a terra dos sacerdotes, que não foi de Faraó.

27 Assim habitou Israel na terra do Egito, na terra de Gósen; e apossaram-se nela, y se aumentaram, e multiplicaram em grande maneira.

28 E viveu Jacó na terra do Egito dezessete anos: e foram os dias de Jacó, os anos de sua vida, cento quarenta e sete anos.

29 E achegaram-se os dias de Israel para morrer, e chamou a José seu filho, e lhe disse: Se achei agora favor em teus olhos, rogo-te que ponhas tua mão debaixo de minha coxa, e farás comigo misericórdia e verdade; rogo-te que não me enterres no Egito;

30 Mas quando dormir com meus pais, me levarás de Egito, e me sepultarás no sepulcro deles. E ele respondeu: Eu farei como tu dizes.
