Genesis 46
1 So Israel set out with all that he had, and when he came to Beersheba, he offered sacrifices to the God of his father Isaac.
Kuom mano Israel nowuok kod gige duto, kendo kane ochopo Bersheba, notimo misango ne Nyasach Isaka wuon-gi.
2 And that night God spoke to Israel in a vision: “Jacob, Jacob!” He said. “Here I am,” replied Jacob.
Kendo Nyasaye nowuoyogi Israel e fweny gotieno kendo owachone niya, “Jakobo! Jakobo!” Nodwoke niya, “Antie.”
3 “I am God,” He said, “the God of your father. Do not be afraid to go down to Egypt, for I will make you into a great nation there.
Nyasaye nowachone niya, “An Nyasaye ma Nyasach wuonu. Kik iluor dhi Misri, nikech anami ibedi oganda maduongʼ kuno.
4 I will go down with you to Egypt, and I will surely bring you back. And Joseph’s own hands will close your eyes.”
Abiro dhi kodi Misri kendo nachak aduogi ka adier kendo Josef ema noyuo wangʼi sa thoni.”
5 Then Jacob departed from Beersheba, and the sons of Israel took their father Jacob in the wagons Pharaoh had sent to carry him, along with their children and wives.
Eka Jakobo nowuok Bersheba, kendo yawuot Israel noketo wuon-gi kod nyithindgi, kod mondgi e geche mane Farao oseorone.
6 They also took the livestock and possessions they had acquired in the land of Canaan, and Jacob and all his offspring went to Egypt.
Negikawo jambgi kod mwandugi mane giseyudo e piny Kanaan, kendo Jakobo kod nyikwaye duto nodhi Misri.
7 Jacob took with him to Egypt his sons and grandsons, and his daughters and granddaughters—all his offspring.
Nodhi Misri gi yawuote gi nyige kod nyikwaye ma yawuowi kod ma nyiri.

20 Manasseh and Ephraim were born to Joseph in the land of Egypt by Asenath daughter of Potiphera, priest of On.

26 All those belonging to Jacob who came to Egypt—his direct descendants, besides the wives of Jacob’s sons—numbered sixty-six persons.
Ji duto mane odhi gi Jakobo Misri, tiende ni nyithinde hie ka ok okwan mond yawuote ji piero auchiel gi auchiel.
27 And with the two sons who had been born to Joseph in Egypt, the members of Jacob’s family who went to Egypt were seventy in all.
Joka Jakobo duto mane odhi Misri ne gin ji piero abiriyo koriwore gi yawuowi ariyo mane Josef onywolo Misri.
28 Now Jacob had sent Judah ahead of him to Joseph to get directions to Goshen. When Jacob’s family arrived in the land of Goshen,
Omiyo Jakobo nooro Juda mondo odhi ir Josef mondo obi oromnegi ka gidhi Goshen. Kane gichopo e gwengʼ mar Goshen,
29 Joseph prepared his chariot and went there to meet his father Israel. Joseph presented himself to him, embraced him, and wept profusely.
Josef noiko gache kendo oikore mar dhi Goshen mondo odhi oromne wuon-gi Israel. Kane Josef ochopo ire, nokwako wuon-gi kendo oywak kuom kinde malach.
30 Then Israel said to Joseph, “Finally I can die, now that I have seen your face and know that you are still alive!”
Israel nowacho ne Josef niya, “Koro kata ka atho, to onge wach, nikech aseneno an awuon ni kara pod ingima.”
31 Joseph said to his brothers and to his father’s household, “I will go up and inform Pharaoh: ‘My brothers and my father’s household from the land of Canaan have come to me.
Eka Josef nowacho ne owetene kod jood wuon mare duto niya, “Abiro dhi mondo awuo gi Farao kendo abiro wachone ni, ‘Owetena kod jood wuora duto mane odak e piny Kanaan osebiro ira.
32 The men are shepherds; they raise livestock, and they have brought their flocks and herds and all that they own.’
Jogi gin jokwath; gikwayo jamni, kendo gisebiro kod kwethgi kod dhogi kod gigegi duto.’
33 When Pharaoh summons you and asks, ‘What is your occupation?’
Ka Farao oluongou kendo openjou ni, ‘Utiyo angʼo?’
34 you are to say, ‘Your servants have raised livestock ever since our youth—both we and our fathers.’ Then you will be allowed to settle in the land of Goshen, since all shepherds are detestable to the Egyptians.”
to nyaka uwachne ni, ‘Jotichgi osebedo jokwath chakre tindowa, mana kaka kwerewa notimo.’ Eka ibiro yienu mondo udag e gwengʼ Goshen, nikech jo-Misri ok ohero jokwath.”
