Genesis 46
1 So Israel left for Egypt with everything he had. When he arrived at Beersheba he offered sacrifices to the God of his father Isaac.
Awo Isirayiri n’addira byonna bye yalina, n’atandika olugendo; bwe yatuuka e Beriseba n’awaayo ssaddaaka eri Katonda wa kitaawe Isaaka.
2 During the night God spoke to Israel in a vision. “Jacob! Jacob!” he called. “I'm here,” he replied.
Katonda n’ayogera ne Isirayiri mu kwolesebwa ekiro, n’amuyita nti, “Yakobo, Yakobo?” N’amuddamu nti, “Nze nzuuno.”
3 “I am God, the God of your father! Don't be afraid to go to Egypt, because I will turn you and your descendants into a great nation.
Katonda n’amugamba nti, “Nze Katonda, Katonda wa kitaawo; totya kuserengeta Misiri, kubanga ndi kufuulirayo eyo eggwanga eddene.
4 I will go to Egypt with you, and I promise to bring you back again. And Joseph will personally close your eyes when you die.”
Nzija kuserengeta naawe e Misiri, era ndi kuggyayo; era olifiira mu mikono gya Yusufu.”
5 Then Jacob left Beersheba. His sons took him, their children, and their wives to Egypt using the wagons Pharaoh had sent.
Awo Yakobo n’ava e Beriseba, batabani be ne bamutwalira wamu n’abaana baabwe abato, ne bakazi baabwe ne babassa mu magaali Falaawo ge yaweereza okumutwala.
6 They also took with them all their livestock and all the personal belongings they had accumulated in the country of Canaan. So Jacob and everyone in his extended family went to Egypt,
Era ne batwala ebisibo n’ebintu byabwe bye baafunira mu nsi ya Kanani ne batuuka e Misiri, Yakobo wamu n’ezzadde lye.

29 Joseph ordered his chariot made ready and went to meet his father Israel there. As soon as he arrived, he hugged his father and wept for a long time.
Awo Yusufu n’ateekateeka eggaali lye n’agenda okusisinkana Isirayiri kitaawe e Goseni, n’amweraga, n’amugwa mu kifuba n’akaabira mu kifuba kye okumala akabanga.
30 “Now I can die in peace because I have seen your face again and know you're still alive,” Israel told Joseph.
Isirayiri n’agamba Yusufu nti, “Kale kaakano ka nfe, kubanga ndabye amaaso go ne ntegeera nti okyali mulamu.”
31 Joseph told his brothers and his father's household, “I'm going to go and report to Pharaoh and tell him, ‘My brothers and my father's household have arrived from the country of Canaan to join me.
Yusufu n’agamba baganda be n’ab’ennyumba ya kitaawe nti, “Nzija kugenda eri Falaawo mugambe nti, ‘Baganda bange n’ennyumba ya kitange abaali mu nsi ya Kanani bazze gye ndi.
32 They are shepherds and keep livestock. They have brought with them their flocks and herds and all their possessions.’
Kyokka balunzi; balunda ente era baleese amagana gaabwe n’ebisibo byabwe ne byonna bye balina.’

Kale Falaawo bw’abayita n’ababuuza nti, ‘Mukola mulimu ki?’
34 tell him, ‘Your servants have looked after livestock since we were children, both us and our fathers before us.’ That way you'll be able to live here in Goshen, because Egyptians look down on shepherds.”
Mumuddemu nti, ‘Abaweereza bo kasookedde tuzaalibwa tuli balunzi, ffe ne bajjajjaffe.’ Mulyoke mubeere mu nsi ya Goseni, kubanga abalunzi baamuzizo eri Abamisiri.”
