Genesis 46
1 And Israel went on his journey with all he had, and came to Beer-sheba, where he made offerings to the God of his father Isaac.
Izrayèl pati avèk tout sa li te genyen. li al Bècheba, li touye bèt, li ofri yo bay Bondye Izarak, papa li.
2 And God said to Israel in a night-vision, Jacob, Jacob. And he said, Here am I.
Jou lannwit sa a, Bondye pale ak Izrayèl nan rèv, li di l': -Jakòb! Jakòb! Jakòb reponn: -Men mwen wi.
3 And he said, I am God, the God of your father: go down to Egypt without fear, for I will make a great nation of you there:
Bondye di li: -Mwen se Bondye, Bondye papa ou la. Ou pa bezwen pè desann ale nan peyi Lejip paske m'ap fè pitit pitit ou yo tounen yon gwo pèp laba a.
4 I will go down with you to Egypt, and I will see that you come back again, and at your death Joseph will put his hands on your eyes.
M'ap desann avè ou nan peyi Lejip, m'ap fè pitit pitit ou yo tounen isit la ankò. Se Jozèf ki va fèmen je ou lè wa mouri.
5 Then Jacob went on from Beer-sheba; and the sons of Jacob took their father and their little ones and their wives in the carts which Pharaoh had sent for them.
Jakòb pati, li kite Bècheba. Pitit Izrayèl yo pran Jakòb, papa yo, ansanm ak timoun yo ak madanm yo, yo fè yo moute sou cha farawon an te voye pou yo vwayaje a.
6 And they took their cattle and all the goods which they had got in the land of Canaan, and came to Egypt, even Jacob and all his seed:
Yo pran tout bèt ak tout byen yo te fè nan peyi Kanaran an. Yo desann nan peyi Lejip. Yo mennen Jakòb desann nan peyi Lejip ak tout pitit pitit li yo.
7 His sons and his sons' sons, his daughters and his daughters' sons and all his family he took with him into Egypt.
Jakòb pran pitit gason l' yo ak pitit fi l' yo, pitit pitit li yo, fi kou gason, li desann nan peyi Lejip ak yo tout.
8 And these are the names of the children of Israel who came into Egypt, even Jacob and all his sons: Reuben, Jacob's oldest son;
Men non pitit Izrayèl yo ansanm ak pitit pitit yo ki te desann nan peyi Lejip: Jakòb ak pitit gason l' yo. Premye gason an te rele Woubenn.

Men non pitit Isaka yo: Tola, Pouva, Jòb ak Chimwon.
14 And the sons of Zebulun: Sered and Elon and Jahleel;
Men non pitit Zabilon yo: Serèd, Elon ak Jaleyèl.
15 All these, together with his daughter Dinah, were the children of Leah, whom Jacob had by her in Paddan-aram; they were thirty-three in number.
Se pitit sa yo Leya te fè pou Jakòb lè yo te Mezopotami. Leya te fè yon fi tout yo te rele Dena. Avèk pitit pitit yo, sa te fè antou tranntwa gason ak yon fi.
16 And the sons of Gad: Ziphion and Haggi, Shuni and Ezbon, Eri and Arodi and Areli;

Men non pitit gason Asè yo: Jimna, Jichva, Jichvi epi Beria. Yo te gen yon sè ki te rele Serak. Beria te gen de pitit gason: Ebè ak Malkyèl.
18 These are the children of Zilpah, whom Laban gave to his daughter Leah, and Jacob had these sixteen children by her.

Men non pitit gason Rachèl, madan Jakòb: Jozèf ak Benjamen.
20 And Joseph had Manasseh and Ephraim in the land of Egypt, by Asenath, the daughter of Poti-phera, priest of On.

26 All the persons who came with Jacob into Egypt, the offspring of his body, were sixty-six, without taking into account the wives of Jacob's sons.
Antou sa te fè swasannsis moun, pitit ak pitit pitit ki te desann nan peyi Lejip ansanm ak Jakòb, san konte madanm pitit li yo.
27 And the sons of Joseph whom he had in Egypt were two. Seventy persons of the family of Jacob came into Egypt.
Avèk Jozèf ki te gen tan fè de pitit nan peyi Lejip, sa te fè antou swasanndis moun laras Jakòb ki te vin nan peyi Lejip.
28 Now he had sent Judah before him to Goshen, to get word from Joseph; and so they came to the land of Goshen.
Izrayèl te voye Jida devan al mande Jozèf pou l' vin jwenn li Gochenn.
29 And Joseph got his carriage ready and went to Goshen for the meeting with his father; and when he came before him, he put his arms round his neck, weeping.
Jozèf fè pare cha li a, li moute, li al Gochenn, li al kontre papa l'. Rive Jozèf rive devan papa l', li lage kò l' nan bra l', li pase yon bon tan ap kriye sou zepòl li.
30 And Israel said to Joseph, Now that I have seen you living again, I am ready for death.
Izrayèl di Jozèf konsa: -Koulye a, mwen wè figi ou, mwen konnen ou vivan toujou, mwen mèt mouri.
31 And Joseph said to his brothers and to his father's people, I will go and give the news to Pharaoh, and say to him, My brothers and my father's people, from the land of Canaan, have come to me;
Epi Jozèf di frè l' yo ak tout fanmi papa l' yo: -Mwen pral avèti wa a. Mwen pral di l': men frè m' yo ak tout fanmi papa m' yo ki t'ap viv nan peyi Kanaran vin jwenn mwen isit la.
32 And these men are keepers of sheep and owners of cattle, and have with them their flocks and their herds and all they have.
Se gadò mouton yo ye. Se bèt yo konn gade. Yo mennen tout mouton yo ak tout bèf yo ansanm ak tout sa yo genyen.
33 Now when Pharaoh sends for you and says, What is your business?
Lè farawon an va rele nou pou mande nou ki metye nou,
34 You are to say, Your servants have been keepers of cattle from our early days up to now, like our fathers; in this way you will be able to have the land of Goshen for yourselves; because keepers of sheep are unclean in the eyes of the Egyptians.
n'a reponn li: Monwa, depi nou tout piti jouk koulye a, se bèt n'ap gade, tankou tout zansèt nou yo. Konsa, nou ka rete nan peyi Gochenn lan. Li te di yo sa paske moun peyi Lejip yo pa ka sipòte wè moun k'ap gade bèt viv nan mitan yo.
