Genesis 50:22-24

New International Reader's Version

Joseph Dies

²² Joseph stayed in Egypt, along with all his father’s family. He lived 110 years. ²³ He lived long enough to see Ephraim’s children and grandchildren. When the children of Makir were born, they were placed on Joseph’s knees and counted as his own children. Makir was the son of Manasseh.

²⁴ Joseph said to his brothers, “I’m about to die. But God will surely come to help you. He’ll take you up out of this land. He’ll bring you to the land he promised to give to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.”
