**61:1** Observe, therefore, my children, all the law of the Lord, for there is hope for all them who follow His way aright.

**61:2** And he said to them: I die before your eyes this day, a hundred and nineteen years old.

**61:3** Let no one bury me in costly apparel, nor tear open my bowels, for this shall they who are kings do: and carry me up to Hebron with you.

**61:4** And Judah, when he had said these things, fell asleep; and his sons did according to all whatsoever he commanded them, and they buried him in Hebron with his fathers.
