Genesis 46
1 Israel traveled with all that he had, and came to Beersheba, and offered sacrifices to the God of his father, Isaac.
Da brød Israel op med alt, hvad han havde, og drog til Be'ersjeba, og han slagtede Ofre for sin Fader Isaks Gud.
2 God spoke to Israel in the visions of the night, and said, “Jacob, Jacob!” He said, “Here I am.”
Men Gud sagde i et Nattesyn til Israel: "Jakob, Jakob!" Og han svarede: "Se, her er jeg!"
3 He said, “I am God, the God of your father. Don’t be afraid to go down into Egypt, for there I will make of you a great nation.
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;
4 I will go down with you into Egypt. I will also surely bring you up again. Joseph’s hand will close your eyes.”
jeg vil selv drage med dig til Ægypten, og jeg vil også føre dig tilbage, og Josef skal lukke dine Øjne!"
5 Jacob rose up from Beersheba, and the sons of Israel carried Jacob, their father, their little ones, and their wives, in the wagons which Pharaoh had sent to carry him.
Da brød Jakob op fra Be'ersjeba; og Israels Sønner satte deres Fader Jakob og deres Børn og Kvinder på de Vogne, Farao havde sendt til at hente ham på.
6 They took their livestock, and their goods, which they had gotten in the land of Canaan, and came into Egypt—Jacob, and all his offspring with him,
Og de tog deres Kvæg og al deres Ejendom, som de havde erhvervet sig i Kana'ans Land, og drog til Ægypten, Jakob og alt hans Afkom med ham;
7 his sons, and his sons’ sons with him, his daughters, and his sons’ daughters, and he brought all his offspring with him into Egypt.
således bragte han sine Sønner og Sønnesønner, sine Døtre og Sønnedøtre og alt sit Afkom med sig til Ægypten.

Men Juda sendte han i Forvejen til Josef, for at man skulde vise ham Vej til Gosen, og de kom til Gosens Land.
29 Joseph prepared his chariot, and went up to meet Israel, his father, in Goshen. He presented himself to him, and fell on his neck, and wept on his neck a good while.
Da lod Josef spænde for sin Vogn og rejste sin Fader i Møde til Gosen; og da han traf ham, omfavnede han ham og græd længe i hans Arme;
30 Israel said to Joseph, “Now let me die, since I have seen your face, that you are still alive.”
og Israel sagde til Josef: "Lad mig nu kun dø, da jeg har set dit Ansigt, at du endnu lever!"
31 Joseph said to his brothers, and to his father’s house, “I will go up, and speak with Pharaoh, and will tell him, ‘My brothers, and my father’s house, who were in the land of Canaan, have come to me.
Men Josef sagde til sine Brødre og sin Faders Hus: "Jeg vil drage hen og melde det til Farao og sige til ham: Mine Brødre og min Faders Hus i Kana'an er kommet til mig;
32 These men are shepherds, for they have been keepers of livestock, and they have brought their flocks, and their herds, and all that they have.’
disse Mænd er Hyrder, thi de driver Kvægavl, og de har bragt deres Småkvæg og Hornkvæg og alt, hvad de ejer, med.

Når så Farao lader eder kalde og spørger eder, hvad I er,
34 that you shall say, ‘Your servants have been keepers of livestock from our youth even until now, both we, and our fathers:’ that you may dwell in the land of Goshen; for every shepherd is an abomination to the Egyptians.”
skal I sige: Dine Trælle har drevet Kvægavl fra Barnsben af ligesom vore Fædre! for at I kan komme til at bo i Gosens Land. Thi enhver Hyrde er Ægypterne en Vederstyggelighed."
