BRN And Joseph adjured the sons of Israel, saying, At the visitation with which God shall visit you, then ye shall carry up my bones hence with you.
BrLXX Καὶ ὥρκισεν Ἰωσὴφ τοὺς υἱοὺς Ἰσραὴλ, λέγων, ἐν τῇ ἐπισκοπῇ ᾗ ἐπισκέψηται ὁ Θεὸς ὑμᾶς, καὶ συνανοίσετε τὰ ὀστᾶ μου ἐντεῦθεν μεθʼ ὑμῶν.
(Kai hōrkisen Yōsaʸf tous huious Israaʸl, legōn, en taʸ episkopaʸ haʸ episkepsaʸtai ho Theos humas, kai sunanoisete ta osta mou enteuthen methʼ humōn. )
50:24-25 God will surely come to help you (literally visit you): These words of Joseph, given twice, summarize the hope expressed throughout both the Old Testament and the New Testament. God’s visitation in the person of the Messiah, the offspring of Abraham, would bring the curse to an end and establish the long-awaited blessing of God in a new creation. The company of the faithful would wait in expectation for that to happen.
• Like his father before him, Joseph made his brothers promise that his bones would be taken out of Egypt when God would come to take them (to help you and lead you back) to Canaan (see Exod 13:19; Josh 24:32; Heb 11:22).

Consider again how you translated swear in the book of Genesis. See Gen 21:23 (and note), 24, 31; 22:16; 24:3, 7, 9, 37; 25:33; 26:3, 31; 31:53; 47:31; 50:5-6, 24-25. Alternate translation: “Then Joseph told his brothers and the rest of the descendants of Israel to promise with an oath that they would do something for him. He said,”
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom
פָּקֹ֨ד יִפְקֹ֤ד אֱלֹהִים֙ אֶתְכֶ֔ם
to_aid comes_to_~_aid ʼₑlhīmv DOM,you_all
See how you translated visit you in verse 24. Alternate translation: “Yes, God will definitely help you, and when he does,” or “When God helps you that way,”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / infostructure
וְהַעֲלִתֶ֥ם אֶת עַצְמֹתַ֖י מִזֶּֽה

For some languages it may be clearer or more natural to change the order of clauses in this verse and say, “When God does that, you must take my body back to Canaan with you and bury it there.’ Then Joseph made/had his brothers and the rest of the descendants of Israel swear/promise with an oaththat they would do that.” Do what is best in your language. Alternate translation: “you must take my bones back to Canaan with you and bury it there.”
