1 Tada Josif pade na lice ocu svom, i plaka nad njim celujući ga. 2 I zapovedi Josif slugama svojim lekarima da mirisima pomažu oca njegovog; i lekari pomazaše mirisima Izrailja. 3 I navrši mu se četrdeset dana, jer toliko dana treba onim koje pomažu mirisima; i plakaše za njim Misirci sedamdeset dana. 4 A kad prođoše žalosni dani, reče Josif domašnjima Faraonovim govoreći: Ako sam našao milost pred vama, govorite Faraonu i recite: 5 Otac me je moj zakleo govoreći: Evo, ja ću skoro umreti; u grobu mom, koji iskopah u zemlji hananskoj, onde me pogrebi. Pa sada da idem da pogrebem oca svog, a posle ću opet doći. 6 A Faraon mu reče: Idi, pogrebi oca svog kako te je zakleo. 7 I otide Josif da pogrebe oca svog; i s njim pođoše sve sluge Faraonove, starešine od doma njegovog i sve starešine od zemlje misirske. 8 I sav dom Josifov i braća njegova i dom oca njegovog; samo decu svoju i ovce svoje i goveda svoja ostaviše u zemlji gesemskoj. 9 A pođe s njim kola i konjanika toliko da beše vojska vrlo velika. 10 A kad dođoše na gumno Atadovo, koje je s one strane Jordana, plakaše onde mnogo i vrlo tužno; i Josif učini žalost za ocem svojim za sedam dana. 11 A ljudi iz one zemlje, Hananejci, kad videše plač na gumnu Atadovom, rekoše: U velikoj su žalosti Misirci. Zato prozvaše ono mesto s one strane Jordana Žalost misirska. 12 I učiniše mu sinovi njegovi kako im beše zapovedio. 13 Odnesoše ga sinovi njegovi u zemlju hanansku, i pogreboše ga u pećini na njivi makpelskoj, koju kupi Avram da ima svoj grob u Efrona Hetejina prema Mamriji. 14 I pogrebavši oca svog vrati se Josif u Misir i braća njegova i svi koji behu izašli s njim da pogrebu oca njegovog. 15 A braća Josifova videći gde im otac umre, rekoše: Može biti da se Josif srdi na nas, pa će nam se osvetiti za sve zlo što mu učinismo. 16 Zato poručiše Josifu: Otac tvoj zapovedi na samrti i reče: 17 Ovako kažite Josifu: Molim te, oprosti braći svojoj bezakonje i greh, što ti pakostiše; sada oprosti bezakonje slugama Boga oca tvog. A Josif zaplaka se kad mu to rekoše. 18 Posle dođoše i braća njegova i padoše pred njim i rekoše: Evo smo sluge tvoje. 19 A Josif im reče: Ne bojte se, zar sam ja mesto Boga? 20 Vi ste mislili zlo po me, ali je Bog mislio dobro, da učini šta se danas zbiva, da se sačuva u životu mnogi narod. 21 Ne bojte se dakle; ja ću hraniti vas i vašu decu. Tako ih uteši i oslobodi. 22 Tako življaše Josif u Misiru s domom oca svog, i požive sto i deset godina. 23 I vide Josif sinove Jefremove do trećeg kolena; i sinovi Mahira sina Manasijinog rodiše se i odrastoše na kolenima Josifovim. 24 I reče Josif braći svojoj: Ja ću skoro umreti; ali će vas zacelo Bog pohoditi, i izvešće vas iz ove zemlje u zemlju za koju se zakleo Avramu, Isaku i Jakovu. 25 I zakle Josif sinove Izrailjeve i reče: Zaista će vas pohoditi Bog; a vi onda odnesite kosti moje odavde. 26 Potom umre Josif, a beše mu sto i deset godina; i pomazavši ga mirisima metnuše ga u kovčeg u Misiru.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
For the same Scripture speaks thus of Joseph: "And Joseph dwelt in Egypt, he and his brethren, and all his father's house: and Joseph lived 110 years, and saw Ephraim's children of the third generation." That is, his great-grandson, the third from Ephraim; for the third generation means son, grandson, great-grandson.

Then it is added, "The children also of Machir, the son of Manasseh, were born upon Joseph's knees." And this is that grandson of Manasseh, and great-grandson of Joseph.
