KJV - Genesis 47:29
And the time drew nigh that Israel must die: and he called his son Joseph, and said unto him, If now I have found grace in thy sight, put, I pray thee, thy hand under my thigh, and deal kindly and truly with me; bury me not, I pray thee, in Egypt:
The time came for Israel to die, so he called his son Joseph and said, "If you like me, please promise to take care of me when I pass away. Don't bury me in Egypt."
