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.
ἀπάρας δὲ Ισραηλ αὐτὸς καὶ πάντα τὰ αὐτοῦ ἦλθεν ἐπὶ τὸ φρέαρ τοῦ ὅρκου καὶ ἔθυσεν θυσίαν τῷ θεῷ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ Ισαακ
2 And that night God spoke to Israel in a vision: “Jacob, Jacob!” He said. “Here I am,” replied Jacob.
εἶπεν δὲ ὁ θεὸς Ισραηλ ἐν ὁράματι τῆς νυκτὸς εἴπας Ιακωβ Ιακωβ ὁ δὲ εἶπεν τί ἐστιν
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.
λέγων ἐγώ εἰμι ὁ θεὸς τῶν πατέρων σου μὴ φοβοῦ καταβῆναι εἰς Αἴγυπτον εἰς γὰρ ἔθνος μέγα ποιήσω σε ἐκεῖ
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.”
καὶ ἐγὼ καταβήσομαι μετὰ σοῦ εἰς Αἴγυπτον καὶ ἐγὼ ἀναβιβάσω σε εἰς τέλος καὶ Ιωσηφ ἐπιβαλεῖ τὰς χεῖρας ἐπὶ τοὺς ὀφθαλμούς σου
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.
ἀνέστη δὲ Ιακωβ ἀπὸ τοῦ φρέατος τοῦ ὅρκου καὶ ἀνέλαβον οἱ υἱοὶ Ισραηλ τὸν πατέρα αὐτῶν καὶ τὴν ἀποσκευὴν καὶ τὰς γυναῖκας αὐτῶν ἐπὶ τὰς ἁμάξας ἃς ἀπέστειλεν Ιωσηφ ἆραι αὐτόν
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.
καὶ ἀναλαβόντες τὰ ὑπάρχοντα αὐτῶν καὶ πᾶσαν τὴν κτῆσιν ἣν ἐκτήσαντο ἐν γῇ Χανααν εἰσῆλθον εἰς Αἴγυπτον Ιακωβ καὶ πᾶν τὸ σπέρμα αὐτοῦ μετ’ αὐτοῦ
7 Jacob took with him to Egypt his sons and grandsons, and his daughters and granddaughters—all his offspring.
υἱοὶ καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ τῶν υἱῶν αὐτοῦ μετ’ αὐτοῦ θυγατέρες καὶ θυγατέρες τῶν υἱῶν αὐτοῦ καὶ πᾶν τὸ σπέρμα αὐτοῦ ἤγαγεν εἰς Αἴγυπτον
8 Now these are the names of the sons of Israel (Jacob and his descendants) who went to Egypt: Reuben, Jacob’s firstborn.
ταῦτα δὲ τὰ ὀνόματα τῶν υἱῶν Ισραηλ τῶν εἰσελθόντων εἰς Αἴγυπτον Ιακωβ καὶ οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτοῦ πρωτότοκος Ιακωβ Ρουβην
9 The sons of Reuben: Hanoch, Pallu, Hezron, and Carmi.
υἱοὶ δὲ Ρουβην Ενωχ καὶ Φαλλους Ασρων καὶ Χαρμι
10 The sons of Simeon: Jemuel, Jamin, Ohad, Jachin, Zohar, and Shaul the son of a Canaanite woman.
υἱοὶ δὲ Συμεων Ιεμουηλ καὶ Ιαμιν καὶ Αωδ καὶ Ιαχιν καὶ Σααρ καὶ Σαουλ υἱὸς τῆς Χανανίτιδος
11 The sons of Levi: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.
υἱοὶ δὲ Λευι Γηρσων Κααθ καὶ Μεραρι
12 The sons of Judah: Er, Onan, Shelah, Perez, and Zerah; but Er and Onan died in the land of Canaan. The sons of Perez: Hezron and Hamul.
υἱοὶ δὲ Ιουδα Ηρ καὶ Αυναν καὶ Σηλωμ καὶ Φαρες καὶ Ζαρα ἀπέθανεν δὲ Ηρ καὶ Αυναν ἐν γῇ Χανααν ἐγένοντο δὲ υἱοὶ Φαρες Ασρων καὶ Ιεμουηλ

υἱοὶ δὲ Ζαβουλων Σερεδ καὶ Αλλων καὶ Αλοηλ
15 These are the sons of Leah born to Jacob in Paddan-aram, in addition to his daughter Dinah. The total number of sons and daughters was thirty-three.
οὗτοι υἱοὶ Λειας οὓς ἔτεκεν τῷ Ιακωβ ἐν Μεσοποταμίᾳ τῆς Συρίας καὶ Διναν τὴν θυγατέρα αὐτοῦ πᾶσαι αἱ ψυχαί υἱοὶ καὶ θυγατέρες τριάκοντα τρεῖς

17 The children of Asher: Imnah, Ishvah, Ishvi, Beriah, and their sister Serah. The sons of Beriah: Heber and Malchiel.
υἱοὶ δὲ Ασηρ Ιεμνα καὶ Ιεσουα καὶ Ιεουλ καὶ Βαρια καὶ Σαρα ἀδελφὴ αὐτῶν υἱοὶ δὲ Βαρια Χοβορ καὶ Μελχιηλ
18 These are the sons of Jacob born to Zilpah—whom Laban gave to his daughter Leah—sixteen in all.
οὗτοι υἱοὶ Ζελφας ἣν ἔδωκεν Λαβαν Λεια τῇ θυγατρὶ αὐτοῦ ἣ ἔτεκεν τούτους τῷ Ιακωβ δέκα ἓξ ψυχάς
19 The sons of Jacob’s wife Rachel: Joseph and Benjamin.
υἱοὶ δὲ Ραχηλ γυναικὸς Ιακωβ Ιωσηφ καὶ Βενιαμιν
20 Manasseh and Ephraim were born to Joseph in the land of Egypt by Asenath daughter of Potiphera, priest of On.
ἐγένοντο δὲ υἱοὶ Ιωσηφ ἐν γῇ Αἰγύπτῳ οὓς ἔτεκεν αὐτῷ Ασεννεθ θυγάτηρ Πετεφρη ἱερέως Ἡλίου πόλεως τὸν Μανασση καὶ τὸν Εφραιμ ἐγένοντο δὲ υἱοὶ Μανασση οὓς ἔτεκεν αὐτῷ ἡ παλλακὴ ἡ Σύρα τὸν Μαχιρ Μαχιρ δὲ ἐγέννησεν τὸν Γαλααδ υἱοὶ δὲ Εφραιμ ἀδελφοῦ Μανασση Σουταλααμ καὶ Τααμ υἱοὶ δὲ Σουταλααμ Εδεμ
21 The sons of Benjamin: Bela, Becher, Ashbel, Gera, Naaman, Ehi, Rosh, Muppim, Huppim, and Ard.

22 These are the sons of Rachel born to Jacob—fourteen in all.

23 The son of Dan: Hushim.
υἱοὶ δὲ Δαν Ασομ
24 The sons of Naphtali: Jahzeel, Guni, Jezer, and Shillem.
καὶ υἱοὶ Νεφθαλι Ασιηλ καὶ Γωυνι καὶ Ισσααρ καὶ Συλλημ
25 These are the sons of Jacob born to Bilhah, whom Laban gave to his daughter Rachel—seven in all.
οὗτοι υἱοὶ Βαλλας ἣν ἔδωκεν Λαβαν Ραχηλ τῇ θυγατρὶ αὐτοῦ ἣ ἔτεκεν τούτους τῷ Ιακωβ πᾶσαι ψυχαὶ ἑπτά
26 All those belonging to Jacob who came to Egypt—his direct descendants, besides the wives of Jacob’s sons—numbered sixty-six persons.
πᾶσαι δὲ ψυχαὶ αἱ εἰσελθοῦσαι μετὰ Ιακωβ εἰς Αἴγυπτον οἱ ἐξελθόντες ἐκ τῶν μηρῶν αὐτοῦ χωρὶς τῶν γυναικῶν υἱῶν Ιακωβ πᾶσαι ψυχαὶ ἑξήκοντα ἕξ
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.
υἱοὶ δὲ Ιωσηφ οἱ γενόμενοι αὐτῷ ἐν γῇ Αἰγύπτῳ ψυχαὶ ἐννέα πᾶσαι ψυχαὶ οἴκου Ιακωβ αἱ εἰσελθοῦσαι εἰς Αἴγυπτον ἑβδομήκοντα πέντε
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,
τὸν δὲ Ιουδαν ἀπέστειλεν ἔμπροσθεν αὐτοῦ πρὸς Ιωσηφ συναντῆσαι αὐτῷ καθ’ Ἡρώων πόλιν εἰς γῆν Ραμεσση
29 Joseph prepared his chariot and went there to meet his father Israel. Joseph presented himself to him, embraced him, and wept profusely.
ζεύξας δὲ Ιωσηφ τὰ ἅρματα αὐτοῦ ἀνέβη εἰς συνάντησιν Ισραηλ τῷ πατρὶ αὐτοῦ καθ’ Ἡρώων πόλιν καὶ ὀφθεὶς αὐτῷ ἐπέπεσεν ἐπὶ τὸν τράχηλον αὐτοῦ καὶ ἔκλαυσεν κλαυθμῷ πλείονι
30 Then Israel said to Joseph, “Finally I can die, now that I have seen your face and know that you are still alive!”
καὶ εἶπεν Ισραηλ πρὸς Ιωσηφ ἀποθανοῦμαι ἀπὸ τοῦ νῦν ἐπεὶ ἑώρακα τὸ πρόσωπόν σου ἔτι γὰρ σὺ ζῇς
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.
εἶπεν δὲ Ιωσηφ πρὸς τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς αὐτοῦ ἀναβὰς ἀπαγγελῶ τῷ Φαραω καὶ ἐρῶ αὐτῷ οἱ ἀδελφοί μου καὶ ὁ οἶκος τοῦ πατρός μου οἳ ἦσαν ἐν γῇ Χανααν ἥκασιν πρός με
32 The men are shepherds; they raise livestock, and they have brought their flocks and herds and all that they own.’
οἱ δὲ ἄνδρες εἰσὶν ποιμένες ἄνδρες γὰρ κτηνοτρόφοι ἦσαν καὶ τὰ κτήνη καὶ τοὺς βόας καὶ πάντα τὰ αὐτῶν ἀγειόχασιν
33 When Pharaoh summons you and asks, ‘What is your occupation?’
ἐὰν οὖν καλέσῃ ὑμᾶς Φαραω καὶ εἴπῃ ὑμῖν τί τὸ ἔργον ὑμῶν ἐστιν
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.”
ἐρεῖτε ἄνδρες κτηνοτρόφοι ἐσμὲν οἱ παῖδές σου ἐκ παιδὸς ἕως τοῦ νῦν καὶ ἡμεῖς καὶ οἱ πατέρες ἡμῶν ἵνα κατοικήσητε ἐν γῇ Γεσεμ Ἀραβίᾳ βδέλυγμα γάρ ἐστιν Αἰγυπτίοις πᾶς ποιμὴν προβάτων
