Genesis 47:28 - 48:9

47:28 And Jacob lived in the land of Egypt seventeen years. And the days of Jacob, the years of his life, were one hundred and forty-seven years.
47:29 When the time of Israel’s death drew near, he called to his son, to Joseph. And he said to him, “If I have found favor in your eyes, please put your hand under my thigh, that you might vow to deal kindly and faithfully with me. Please do not bury me in Egypt,
47:30 but let me lie with my ancestors. Carry me out of Egypt and bury me in their burial site.” And he said, “I will do according to your word.”
47:31 Then he said, “Swear to me.” And he swore to him. Then Israel bowed himself on the head of the bed.
48:1 Jacob Blesses Ephraim and Manasseh And it happened that after these things, it was said to Joseph, “Behold, your father is ill.” And he took his two sons with him, Ephraim and Manasseh.
48:2 And it was told to Jacob, “Behold, your son Joseph has come to you.” Then Israel strengthened himself and he sat up in the bed.
48:3 Then Jacob said to Joseph, “El-Shaddai appeared to me in Luz, in the land of Canaan, and blessed me,
48:4 and said to me, ‘Behold, I will make you fruitful and make you numerous, and will make you a company of nations. And I will give this land to your offspring after you as an everlasting possession.’
48:5 And now, your two sons who were born to you in the land of Egypt before my coming to you in Egypt, are mine. Ephraim and Manasseh shall be mine as Reuben and Simeon are.
48:6 And your children whom you father after them shall be yours. By the name of their brothers they shall be called, with respect to their inheritance.
48:7 As for me, when I came to Paddan-Aram Rachel died to my sorrow in the land of Canaan on the way when there was still some distance to go to Ephrath. And I buried her there on the way to Ephrath (that is, Bethlehem).”
48:8 When Israel saw the sons of Joseph he said, “Who are these?”
48:9 Then Joseph said to his father, “They are my sons whom God has given me here.” And he said, “Please bring them to me that I may bless them.”

Gospel — John 20:1 - 9

LEB translation

John 20:1 - 9

20:1 Jesus Is Raised Now on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene came to the tomb early, while it was still dark, and saw the stone had been taken away from the tomb.
20:2 So she ran and came to Simon Peter and to the other disciple whom Jesus loved and said to them, “They have taken away the Lord from the tomb and we do not know where they have put him!”
20:3 Then Peter and the other disciple went out and were going to the tomb.
20:4 And the two were running together, and the other disciple ran ahead, faster than Peter, and came to the tomb first.
20:5 And bending over to look, he saw the strips of linen cloth lying there, though he did not go in.
20:6 Then Simon Peter also came following him, and he went into the tomb and saw the strips of linen cloth lying there,
20:7 and the facecloth that was on his head—not lying with the strips of linen cloth, but folded up separately in one place.
20:8 So then the other disciple who had come to the tomb first also went in, and he saw and believed.
20:9 (For they did not yet know the scripture that it was necessary for him to rise from the dead.)
