Genesis 46
1 And Israel journeys, and all that he has, and comes to Beer-Sheba, and sacrifices sacrifices to the God of his father Isaac;
Israeli anasonkhanitsa zonse anali nazo napita ku Beeriseba kukapereka nsembe kwa Mulungu wa abambo ake Isake.
2 and God speaks to Israel in visions of the night and says, “Jacob, Jacob”; and he says, “Here I [am].”
Ndipo Mulungu anayankhula ndi Israeli mʼmasomphenya usiku nati, “Yakobo! Yakobo!” Iye anayankha, “Ee, Ambuye.”
3 And He says, “I [am] God, God of your father, do not be afraid of going down to Egypt, for I set you there for a great nation;
Mulungu anati, “Ine ndine Mulungu. Mulungu wa abambo ako. Usachite mantha kupita ku Igupto, pakuti ndidzachulukitsa zidzukulu zako kumeneko moti zidzakhala mtundu waukulu.
4 I go down with you to Egypt, and I also certainly bring you up, and Joseph puts his hand on your eyes.”
Ine ndidzapita ku Igupto pamodzi ndi iwe ndipo mosakayika konse zidzukulu zako ndidzazibweretsa konkuno. Yosefe adzakhalapo pa nthawi yako yomwalira.”
5 And Jacob rises from Beer-Sheba, and the sons of Israel carry away their father Jacob, and their infants, and their wives, in the wagons which Pharaoh has sent to carry him,
Yakobo anachoka ku Beeriseba, ndipo ana ake anakweza abambo awo, ana awo, pamodzi ndi akazi awo pa ngolo zimene Farao anatumiza kuti adzakwerepo.
6 and they take their livestock, and their goods which they have acquired in the land of Canaan, and come into Egypt—Jacob, and all his seed with him,
Iwo anatenganso ziweto zawo ndi katundu wawo amene anali naye ku Kanaani, ndipo Yakobo pamodzi ndi ana ndi zidzukulu zake anapita ku Igupto.
