Génesis 50

O processo de embalsamamento levou quarenta dias, que era o prazo normal para isso. Os egípcios choraram a sua morte por setenta dias.

Y cumpliéronle cuarenta días, porque así cumplían los días de los embalsamados, y lloráronlo los Egipcios setenta días.

And forty days were fulfilled for him; for so are fulfilled the days of those which are embalmed: and the Egyptians mourned for him threescore and ten days.

Forty days were used for him, for that is how many days it takes to embalm. The Egyptians wept for Israel for seventy days.
