Genesis 50:24

22 Now Joseph and his father’s household remained in Egypt, and Joseph lived to the age of 110.

23 He saw Ephraim’s sons to the third generation, and indeed the sons of Machir son of Manasseh were brought up on Joseph’s knees.

Then Joseph said to his brothers, “I am about to die, but God will surely visit you and bring you up from this land to the land He promised on oath to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.”

25 And Joseph made the sons of Israel take an oath and said, “God will surely attend to you, and then you must carry my bones up from this place.”

26 So Joseph died at the age of 110. And they embalmed his body and placed it in a coffin in Egypt.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
