1 And Israel took his journey with all that he had, and came to Beer-sheba; and he offered sacrifices to the God of his father Isaac.
Yakub mengemasi segala miliknya lalu berangkat. Sampai di Bersyeba ia mempersembahkan kurban kepada Allah yang dipuja oleh Ishak ayahnya.
2 And God spoke to Israel in the visions of the night and said, Jacob, Jacob! And he said, Here am I.
Dalam suatu penglihatan pada waktu malam, Allah berkata kepadanya, "Yakub, Yakub!" "Ya, Tuhan," jawabnya.
3 And he said, I am God, the God of thy father: fear not to go down to Egypt; for I will there make of thee a great nation.
"Aku Allah, Allah yang dipuja ayahmu," katanya. "Jangan takut untuk pergi ke Mesir. Aku akan menjadikan keturunanmu bangsa yang besar di sana.
4 I will go down with thee to Egypt, and I will also certainly bring thee up; and Joseph shall put his hand on thine eyes.
Aku akan menyertai engkau ke Mesir, dan membawa keturunanmu kembali ke negeri ini. Yusuf akan ada di sampingmu apabila ajalmu tiba."
