< 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.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Isiraeli akiumagara na indo ciothe iria aarĩ nacio, na aakinya Birishiba-rĩ, akĩrutĩra Ngai wa ithe Isaaka magongona.
2 And God spake unto Israel in the visions of the night, and said, Jacob, Jacob. And he said, Here [am] I.
Nake Ngai akĩarĩria Isiraeli na kĩoneki ũtukũ, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Jakubu! Jakubu!” Nake agĩcookia atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ũyũ haha.”
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:
Ngai akiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩ niĩ Ngai, Ngai wa thoguo. Ndũgetigĩre gũikũrũka ũthiĩ Misiri, tondũ nĩngagũtua rũrĩrĩ rũnene mũno kũu.
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.
O na nĩngũikũrũkania nawe kũu Misiri, na ti-itherũ nĩ ngagũcookia gũkũ rĩngĩ. Nakuo guoko kwa Jusufu kuo kwene nĩkuo gũgaakũhinga maitho wakua.”
