Bible Verses About Jacob: Exacts a promise from Joseph to buy him with his fathers

And when he saw that the day of his death drew nigh, he called his son Joseph, and said to him: If I have found favour in thy sight, put thy hand under my thigh; and thou shalt shew me this kindness and truth, not to bury me in Egypt.

But I will sleep with my fathers, and thou shalt take me away out of this land, and bury me in the burying place of my ancestors. And Joseph answered him: I will do what thou hast commanded.

And he said: Swear then to me. And as he was swearing, Israel adored God, turning to the bed's head.
