Genesis 50

Gen Z: Genesis 50

1Joseph hits up his dad’s face, starts crying, and gives him a kiss.

2Joseph told his crew of doctors to prep his dad for the afterlife, and they did their thing.

3They mourned for forty days ‘cause that’s how long it takes for the embalming vibes, and the Egyptians were sad for seventy days, no cap.

4After mourning, Joseph told Pharaoh’s squad, “If I got good vibes from you, can you tell Pharaoh this?”

5“Dad made me promise, saying, ‘I’m gonna die: bury me where I dug my grave in Canaan.’ So, can I bounce and bury my dad, then I’ll be back?”

6Pharaoh was like, “Bet, go bury your dad like you promised.”

7Joseph went to bury his dad, and all Pharaoh's crew, the fam, and the land’s elders rolled with him.

8Joseph’s whole fam came too, but they left the little ones, flocks, and herds in Goshen.

9They had chariots and riders with them: it was a massive squad.

10They hit the threshing floor of Atad, beyond the Jordan, and mourned hard for seven days.

11When the Canaanites saw the mourning at Atad, they were like, "This is some serious sadness for the Egyptians," so they named it Abel-mizraim, which is just past Jordan.

12His sons did exactly what he told them to do, no cap.

13They took him to Canaan and buried him in the cave at Machpelah, the spot Abraham bought for a chill burial place from Ephron the Hittite, before Mamre.

14Joseph went back to Egypt with his bros and everyone who rolled with him after burying his dad.

15When Joseph's bros saw their dad was gone, they were like, "Bet, Joseph's gonna be salty and get back at us for all that mess we pulled."

16So they slid a message to Joseph, saying, "Before he passed, Dad said,"

17"Tell Joseph, please forgive us for what we did; we messed up, and now we're begging you to forgive us, your dad's servants." Joseph was shook and cried when they said that.

18His bros came and fell down, saying, "We’re totally your servants."

19Joseph was like, "Chill, fam; am I in God's spot?"

20But for real, you thought you were doing me dirty, but God flipped it for good, making it all work out to save a lot of people, fr.

21So don’t trip, I got you and your fam. He gave them the good vibes and spoke sweetly.

22Joseph was vibin’ in Egypt with his whole fam, living for 110 years.

23Joseph peeped Ephraim's kids, like, three generations deep, and Machir's kids were chillin’ on his lap.

24Joseph told his bros, “I’m out, but God’s gonna come through for you and take you to the land He promised Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.”

25Joseph made the fam promise, “God’s gonna visit you, and you gotta take my bones with you.”

26Joseph passed away at 110, they gave him the whole embalming treatment, and he was laid to rest in Egypt.

KJV: Genesis 50

1And Joseph fell upon his father’s face, and wept upon him, and kissed him.

2And Joseph commanded his servants the physicians to embalm his father: and the physicians embalmed Israel.

3And forty days were fulfilled for him; for so are fulfilled the days of those which are embalmed: and the Egyptians mourned for him threescore and ten days.

4And when the days of his mourning were past, Joseph spake unto the house of Pharaoh, saying, If now I have found grace in your eyes, speak, I pray you, in the ears of Pharaoh, saying,

5My father made me swear, saying, Lo, I die: in my grave which I have digged for me in the land of Canaan, there shalt thou bury me. Now therefore let me go up, I pray thee, and bury my father, and I will come again.

6And Pharaoh said, Go up, and bury thy father, according as he made thee swear.

7And Joseph went up to bury his father: and with him went up all the servants of Pharaoh, the elders of his house, and all the elders of the land of Egypt,

8And all the house of Joseph, and his brethren, and his father’s house: only their little ones, and their flocks, and their herds, they left in the land of Goshen.

9And there went up with him both chariots and horsemen: and it was a very great company.

10And they came to the threshingfloor of Atad, which is beyond Jordan, and there they mourned with a great and very sore lamentation: and he made a mourning for his father seven days.

11And when the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites, saw the mourning in the floor of Atad, they said, This is a grievous mourning to the Egyptians: wherefore the name of it was called Abel–mizraim, which is beyond Jordan.

12And his sons did unto him according as he commanded them:

13For his sons carried him into the land of Canaan, and buried him in the cave of the field of Machpelah, which Abraham bought with the field for a possession of a buryingplace of Ephron the Hittite, before Mamre.

14And Joseph returned into Egypt, he, and his brethren, and all that went up with him to bury his father, after he had buried his father.

15And when Joseph’s brethren saw that their father was dead, they said, Joseph will peradventure hate us, and will certainly requite us all the evil which we did unto him.

16And they sent a messenger unto Joseph, saying, Thy father did command before he died, saying,

17So shall ye say unto Joseph, Forgive, I pray thee now, the trespass of thy brethren, and their sin; for they did unto thee evil: and now, we pray thee, forgive the trespass of the servants of the God of thy father. And Joseph wept when they spake unto him.

18And his brethren also went and fell down before his face; and they said, Behold, we be thy servants.

19And Joseph said unto them, Fear not: for am I in the place of God?

20But as for you, ye thought evil against me; but God meant it unto good, to bring to pass, as it is this day, to save much people alive.

21Now therefore fear ye not: I will nourish you, and your little ones. And he comforted them, and spake kindly unto them.

22And Joseph dwelt in Egypt, he, and his father’s house: and Joseph lived an hundred and ten years.

23And Joseph saw Ephraim’s children of the third generation: the children also of Machir the son of Manasseh were brought up upon Joseph’s knees.

24And Joseph said unto his brethren, I die: and God will surely visit you, and bring you out of this land unto the land which he sware to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.

25And Joseph took an oath of the children of Israel, saying, God will surely visit you, and ye shall carry up my bones from hence.

26So Joseph died, being an hundred and ten years old: and they embalmed him, and he was put in a coffin in Egypt.
