< 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.
Ie nionjoñe amy fañaveloa’ey t’Israele ninday o fanaña’e iabio naho nandoake e Beersevà ao, le nañenga soroñe aman’ Añahare’ Ietsàke rae’e.
2 And God spoke to Israel in a vision at night, and said, "Jacob, Jacob." And he said, "Here I am."
Nitsara am’ Israele añ’ aroñaron-kaleñe t’i Andrianañahare nanao ty hoe, O Iakòbe, Iakòbe. Intoy iraho, hoe re.
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.
Le hoe Re, Izaho o Andrianañahareo, t’i Andrianañaharen-drae’o; ko hembañe ami’ty fañaveloa’o mb’e Mitsraime mb’eo amy t’ie hanoeko foko ra’elahy te añe.
4 I will go down with you into Egypt, and I myself will surely bring you up again, and Joseph will close your eyes."
Hindre lia ama’o mb’e Mitsraime mb’eo iraho vaho toe hampoliko indraike, le ty tañan’ Ana’o, Iosefe, ro hampirompo o fihaino’oo.
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.
Aa le nienga i Beersevà t’Iakòbe, vaho nendese’ o ana-dahi’ Israeleo t’i rae’e Iakòbe rekets’ o keleia’eo naho o vali’eo amo sarete nahitri’ i Parò hindesañe azeo.
6 So they took their livestock and their possessions which they had acquired in the land of Canaan, and arrived in Egypt, Jacob and all his descendants with him,
Nendese’ iereo o hare’ iareoo naho ty vara’iareo, o niazo’ iareo an-tane Kanàneo, vaho nandoak’e Mitsraime ao: t’Iakòbe rekets’ i hasavereña’e iabiy;
7 his sons, and his sons' sons with him, his daughters, and his sons' daughters, and he brought all his descendants with him to Egypt.
nendese’e mb’e Mitsraime mb’eo ze hene ana-dahi’e naho anan’ana’e lahy naho anak’ampela’e naho anak’ampelan’ ana-dahi’e vaho o tarira’e iabio.
8 Now these are the names of the sons of Israel who went to Egypt, Jacob and his sons: Reuben, Jacob's firstborn.

19 The sons of Rachel, Jacob's wife: Joseph and Benjamin.
O ana’ i Rahkele vali’ Iakòbeo: I Iosefe naho i Beniamine.
20 To Joseph in the land of Egypt were born Manasseh and Ephraim, whom Asenath the daughter of Potiphera, priest of On, bore to him.
Nahatoly i Menasè naho i Efraime an-tane Mitsraime ao t’Iosefe, i nasama’ i Asenate ana’ i Potifera, mpisoro’ i Oney, ho aze rey.

(i Bilhae, natolo’ i Labàne amy ana’e Rahkele ty nahatoly irezay ho am’ Iakobe—nitontañe h’ondaty fito).
26 All the persons who came with Jacob into Egypt, who were his direct descendants, not including the wives of Jacob's sons, all the persons were sixty-six.
Ze hene ondati’ Iakòbe nitotsa­ke Mitsraime añe, o boak’am-bania’e ao naho tsy o valin’ ana’eo, le ondaty enem-polo eneñ’ amby.
27 And the sons of Joseph who were born to him in Egypt were two persons. All the persons of the house of Jacob who came into Egypt were seventy.
Roe ty ana’ Iosefe nisamake e Mitsraime ao; aa le fitompolo ty an-kasavereña’ Iakòbe nandoake e Mitsraime añe.
28 And he sent Judah ahead of him to Joseph to accompany him to Gesen. Then they arrived in the land of Gesen.
Nirahe’e aolo mb’am’Iosefe mb’eo t’Ie­hodà hatoro’e aze hey ty lalañe mb’e Gose­na mb’eo, vaho nimoak’ an-tane Gosena ao iereo.
29 And Joseph prepared his chariot and went up to meet his father Israel in Gesen. And he presented himself to him and he threw his arms around his neck and wept for a long time.
Nampihentseñe’ Iosefe ty sarete’e le nionjom-b’eo hifanalaka am’ Israele rae’e e Gosena ao. Niheo ama’e mb’eo re, le namorokoko am-pititia’e vaho nangololoike ela am-pititia’e eo.
30 Then Israel said to Joseph, "Now let me die since I have seen your face, that you are still alive."
Hoe t’Israele am’ Iosefe, Apoho hikenkañe henaneo, fa nitreako ty tare­he’o t’ie mbe veloñe.
31 Then Joseph said to his brothers and to his father's household, "I will go up and speak with Pharaoh and will tell him, 'My brothers and my father's household who were in the land of Canaan have come to me.
Hoe t’Iosefe aman-drahalahi’e naho añ’anjomban-drae’e, Hiavotse mb’eo iraho hitalily ty hoe amy Parò: Fa to­tsa­k’ amako atoy o rahalahikoo naho ty anjomban-draeko boak’ an-tane Kanàne añe.
32 The men are shepherds, for they have been keepers of livestock, and they have brought their flocks and their herds and all that they have.'
Mpiarak’ añondry o lahilahio, fa mpihare, le hene nen­dese’ iereo o mpirai-lia’eo naho o mpirai-tro’eo vaho ze he’e am’iareoo.
33 And it will come to pass, when Pharaoh summons you and says, 'What is your occupation?'
Ie koiha’ i Parò manao ty hoe, Inom-bao ty tolon-draha’ areo?
34 that you are to say, 'Your servants have looked after livestock from our youth until now, both we, and our fathers: 'in order that you may settle in the land of Gesen; since all shepherds are detestable to the Egyptians."
le hanoa’areo ty hoe, Fa mpihare boak’ amy te niajalahy pake henane o mpitoro’oo, zahay naho o roae’aio—soa t’ie hitoetse an-tane Gosena, amy te mampangorý o nte-Mitsraimeo ze atao mpiarak’ añondry.
