Genesis 46
1 And Israel taking his journey, with all that he had, came to the well of the oath, and killing victims there to the God of his father Isaac,
Isalaele akendeki na nyonso oyo azalaki na yango. Tango akomaki na Beri-Sheba, abonzaki mbeka epai ya Nzambe ya Izaki, tata na ye.
2 He heard him by a vision in the night calling him, and saying to him: Jacob, Jacob. And he answered him: Lo, here I am.
Na butu, Nzambe alobaki na Isalaele na nzela ya emoniseli: — Jakobi! Jakobi! Jakobi azongisaki: — Ngai oyo.
3 God said to him: I am the most mighty God of thy father: fear not, go down into Egypt, for I will make a great nation of thee there.
Nzambe alobaki: — Nazali Nzambe, Nzambe ya tata na yo. Kobanga te kokende na Ejipito, pamba te nakokomisa yo ekolo monene kuna.
4 I will go down with thee thither, and will bring thee back again from thence: Joseph also shall put his hands upon thy eyes.
Ngai moko nakokende elongo na yo na Ejipito; mpe ya solo, nakozongisa yo lisusu. Loboko ya Jozefi ekozipa miso na yo.
5 And Jacob rose up from the well of the oath: and his sons took him up, with their children and wives in the wagons, which Pharao had sent to carry the old man,
Bongo Jakobi alongwaki na Beri-Sheba. Bana mibali ya Isalaele bamatisaki na bashario oyo Faraon atindaki mpo na komema ye: tata na bango Jakobi, bana na bango mpe basi na bango.
6 And all that he had in the land of Chanaan, and he came into Egypt with all his seed:
Bamemaki lisusu bibwele na bango mpe biloko nyonso oyo bazalaki na yango na mokili ya Kanana; mpe Jakobi elongo na bakitani na ye nyonso bakendeki na Ejipito.
7 His sons, and grandsons, daughters, and all his offspring together.

32 And the men are shepherds, and their occupation is to feed cattle: their flocks and herds, and all they have, they have brought with them.
Bazali babateli bibwele, babokolaka bibwele. Bamemi bameme, bantaba, bangombe na bango mpe biloko nyonso oyo bazalaki na yango. »
33 And when he shall call you, and shall say: What is your occupation?
Tango Faraon akobenga bino mpe akotuna bino: « Bosalaka mosala nini? »
34 You shall answer: We thy servants are shepherds, from our infancy until now, both we and our fathers. And this you shall say, that you may dwell in the land of Gessen, because the Egyptians have all shepherds in abomination.
Bokozongisa: « Basali na yo babokolaka bibwele wuta bomwana na biso kino sik’oyo ndenge bakoko na biso bazalaki kosala. » Soki kaka bolobi bongo, akopesa bino nzela ya kovanda na Gosheni, pamba te bato ya Ejipito balingaka te babateli nyonso ya bibwele.
