Genesis 46
1 So Israel set out with all that he had and came to Beersheba, and offered sacrifices to 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 spoke to Israel in a vision at night, and said, "Jacob, Jacob." And he said, "Here I am."
Bondye te pale avèk Israël nan vizyon nan nwit lan. Li te di: “Jacob, Jacob.” Jacob te reponn: “Men mwen isit la.”
3 He said, "I am God, the God of your father. Do not be afraid to go down to Egypt, for there I will make you into 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 you into Egypt, and I myself will surely bring you up again, and Joseph will close your 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 Then Jacob rose up from Beersheba, and the sons of Israel carried their father Jacob, and their little ones, and their wives on 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.
