以色列的死期临近了，他就叫了他儿子约瑟来，说，我若在你眼前蒙恩，请你把手放在我大腿底下，用慈爱和诚实待我，请你不要将我葬在埃及。
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:
我与我祖我父同睡的时候，你要将我带出埃及，葬在他们所葬的地方。约瑟说，我必遵着你的命而行。
But I will lie with my fathers, and thou shalt carry me out of Egypt, and bury me in their buryingplace. And he said, I will do as thou hast said.
雅各说，你要向我起誓。约瑟就向他起了誓，于是以色列在床头上（或作扶着杖头）敬拜神。
And he said, Swear unto me. And he sware unto him. And Israel bowed himself upon the bed's head.
他为我们选择产业，就是他所爱之雅各的荣耀。（细拉）。
He shall choose our inheritance for us, the excellency of Jacob whom he loved. Selah.
你们要向神歌颂，歌颂，向我们王歌颂，歌颂。
Sing praises to God, sing praises: sing praises unto our King, sing praises.
因为神是全地的王。你们要用悟性歌颂。
For God is the King of all the earth: sing ye praises with understanding.
神作王治理万国。神坐在他的圣宝座上。
God reigneth over the heathen: God sitteth upon the throne of his holiness.
列邦的君王聚集，要作亚伯拉罕之神的民。因为世界的盾牌，是属神的。他为至高。
The princes of the people are gathered together, even the people of the God of Abraham: for the shields of the earth belong unto God: he is greatly exalted.
巴比伦的处女阿，下来坐在尘埃，迦勒底的闺女阿，没有宝座，要坐在地上，因为你不再称为柔弱娇嫩的。
Come down, and sit in the dust, O virgin daughter of Babylon, sit on the ground: there is no throne, O daughter of the Chaldeans: for thou shalt no more be called tender and delicate.
要用磨磨面。揭去帕子，脱去长衣，露腿趟河。
Take the millstones, and grind meal: uncover thy locks, make bare the leg, uncover the thigh, pass over the rivers.
