And Israel departed, he and all that he had, and came to the well of the oath; and he offered sacrifice to the God of his father Isaac.

And God spoke to Israel in a night vision, saying, Jacob, Jacob; and he said, What is it?
3 Da sagde han: "Jeg er Gud, din Faders Gud, vær ikke bange for at drage ned til Ægypten, thi jeg vil gøre dig til et stort Folk der;
And he says to him, I am the God of thy fathers; fear not to go down into Egypt, for I will make thee there a great nation.
4 jeg vil selv drage med dig til Ægypten, og jeg vil også føre dig tilbage, og Josef skal lukke dine Øjne!"
And I will go down with thee into Egypt, and I will bring thee up at the end; and Joseph shall put his hands on thine eyes.
