< Genesis 46 >

1 And Israel took his journey with all that he had, and came to Beer–sheba, and offered sacrifices unto the God of his father Isaac.
Epi Israël te pati avèk tout sa li te genyen. Li te vini Beer-Schéba e te ofri sakrifis a Bondye a papa li a, Isaac.
2 And God spake unto Israel in the visions of the night, and said, Jacob, Jacob. And he said, Here am I.
Bondye te pale avèk Israël nan vizyon nan nwit lan. Li te di: “Jacob, Jacob.” Jacob te reponn: “Men mwen isit la.”
3 And he said, I am God, the God of thy father: fear not to go down into Egypt; for I will there make of thee a great nation:
Li te di: “Mwen se Bondye, Bondye a papa ou a. Pa pè desann an Égypte, paske mwen va fè nou vin yon gran nasyon la.
4 I will go down with thee into Egypt; and I will also surely bring thee up again: and Joseph shall put his hand upon thine eyes.
Mwen va desann avèk nou an Égypte. Mwen va anplis, an verite, fè nou monte ankò. Epi se men Joseph ki va fèmen zye ou.”
5 And Jacob rose up from Beer–sheba: and the sons of Israel carried Jacob their father, and their little ones, and their wives, in the wagons which Pharaoh had sent to carry him.
Alò, Jacob te leve kite Beer-Schéba. Fis Israël yo te pote papa yo, Jacob, ak pitit pa yo, ak madanm yo nan cha ke Farawon te voye pou pote yo.
