came to the land of Goshen and Joseph made ready his chariot and went up to meet Israel his father and presented himselfe unto him and he fell on his neck and wept and Israel said unto Joseph Now let me die since I have seene thy face And Joseph said unto his brethren and to his fathers house I will goe up unto Pharaoh and tell him my father and you are come hither and when Pharaoh shall aske you What is your occupation Ye shall say Thy servants trade hath beene about cattell that ye may dwell in the land of Goshen for every Shepherd is an abomination unto the Egyptians Then Joseph told Pharaoh of his fathers coming into Egypt and presented five of his brethren unto him and Pharaoh said unto his brethren What is your occupation and they said Thy servants are Shepherds both we and also our fathers and they said moreover The famine is great in Canaan now therefore we pray thee let thy servants dwel in the land of Goshen And Pharaoh spake to Joseph saying Thy father and thy brethren are come unto thee in the land of Goshen let them dwell and if thou knowest any man of activity amongst them then make them rulers over my cattell And Joseph brought in Jacob his father and set him before Pharaoh and Jacob blessed Pharaoh and Pharaoh said unto Jacob How old art thou and Jacob said unto Pharaoh The yeares of my pilgrimage ar● one hundred and thirty years few and evill have the dayes of the yeares of my life beene And Jacob went out from before Pharaoh and Joseph placed his father and his brethren in the best of the land as Pharaoh had commanded and Joseph nourished his father and his brethren and all his fathers houshold according to their families And Israel did grow and multiply exceedingly in Goshen and Jacob lived in the land of Egypt seventeene yeares so the whole age of Jacob was one hundred fourty and seven yeares and the time drew nigh that Israel must die and he called his sonne Joseph and said unto him If now I have found grace in thy sight put I pray thee thy hand under my thigh and deale kindly and truly with me Bury me not I pray thee in Egypt But I will lye with my fathers and thou shalt cary me out of Egypt and bury me in their burying place and he said I will doe as thou hast said and he said Sweare unto me and he sware unto him and Israel bowed himselfe upon the beds head And Jacob being sick Joseph brought his two sonnes Manasseh and Ephraim with him and Jacob was told of their coming and he strengthened himselfe and fate upon the bed Israel after he had blessed Joseph called for his two sonnes to blesse them Now the eyes of Israel were dim for age so that he could not see and Joseph brought them neare unto him and he kissed them and imbraced them and Israel said unto Joseph I had not thought to see thy face and loe God hath shewed me also thy seed and Joseph brought them out from between his knees and he bowed himselfe with his face to the earth and Joseph tooke them both Ephraim in his right hand towards Israels left hand and Manasseth in his left hand towards Israels right hand and brought them neare unto him and Israel stretched out his right hand and laid it upon Ephraims head who was the younger and his left hand upon Manassehs head guiding his hands wittingly and he blessed Joseph and said God before whom my fathers Abraham and Isaac did walke the God which fed me all my life long unto this day the Angel which redeemed me from all evill blesse the lads and let my name be named on them and the name of my fathers Abraham and Isaac and let them grow into a multitude in the midst of the earth And when Joseph saw that his father laid his right hand upon the head of Ephraim it displeased him and he held up his fathers hand to remove it from Ephraims head unto Manass●hs head and Joseph said unto his father Not so my father for this is the first borne put thy right hand upon his head and his father refused and said I know it my sonne I know it he also shall become a people and he also shall be great but truly his younger brother shall be greater then he and his seede shall become a multitude of Nations and he blessed them that day saying in thee shall Israel blesse saying God make thee as Ephraim and Manasseh and Israel said unto Joseph Behold I die But God shall be with you and bring you again unto the land of your fathers Moreover I have given to thee one portion above thy brethren which I tooke out of the hand of the Amorite with my sword and with my bowe And Jacob called all his sonnes and said gather your selves together that I may tell you that which shall befall you in the last dayes gather your selves together and heare ye sons of Jacob and hearken unto Israel your father and he blessed them and he charged them and said I am to be gathered unto my people bury me with my fathers in the cave that is in the field of Ephron the Hittit in the land of Canaan which Abraham bought for a possession of a burying place there they buried Abraham and Sarah his wife there they buried Isaac and Rebeckah his wife and there I buried Leah and when Jacob had made an end of commanding his sonnes he gathered his feet into the bed and yielded up the ghost and was gathered unto his people And Joseph fell upon his fathers face and wept upon him and kissed him And Joseph commanded his servants the Physicians to embalme Israel and fourty dayes were fulfilled for him for so are fulfilled the dayes of those which are embalmed and the Egyptians mourned for him threescore and tenne daies and when the dayes of mourning were past Pharaoh said unto Joseph Goe up and bury thy father as he made thee sweare and 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 and all the house of Joseph and his brethren and his fathers house onely their little ones they left in the land of Goshen and there went up with him both Charets and Horsemen and it was a very great company and they came to the threshing floore of Arad which is beyond Jordan and there they mourned with a great and sore lamentation and he made a mourning for his father seven dayes and his sons did unto him according as he commanded them and carried him into the land of Canaan and buried him in the cave as he appointed And Joseph returned into Egypt he and his brethren and all that went up with him and when Josephs brethren saw their father was dead they said Peradventure Joseph will hate us and will certainly

And Balaam rose up and went and returned to his place and Balak also went his way And Israel abiding in Shittim the people beganne to commit whoredome with the daughters of Moab and bowed towards their gods and the anger of the Lord was kindled against them One of the children of Israel came and brought unto his brethren a Midianitish woman in the sight of Moses and all the congregation of Israel who were weeping before the doore of the tabernacle and when Phineas the sonne of Eleazar the sonne of Aaron the Priest saw it he rose from amongst the congregation and tooke a Javelin in his hand and went after the man of Israel into the tent and thrust both the man and the woman Zimri and Cozbi through so the plague was stayed in Israel and those that dyed of the plague were twenty and foure thousand And Moses desired of the Lord to set a man over the congregation to goe in and out before them that they may not be as sheep that have no shepherd and the Lord said unto Moses Take thee Joshuah the sonne of Nun a man in whom is the Spirit and lay thine hand upon him and set him before Eleazar the Priest and before all the congregation and give him a charge in their sight and thou shalt put some of thine honour upon him that all Israel may be obedient and he shall stand before Eleazar the Priest who shall aske counsell for him after the judgement of Urim before the Lord and Moses did as the Lord commanded him and he
