Genesis 46
1 So Israel brake up, with all that he had, and came in to Beer-sheba, —and offered sacrifices to the God of his father Isaac.
Da brød Israel op med alt, hvad han havde, og drog til Be'ersjeba, og han slagtede Ofre for sin Fader Isaks Gud.
2 And God said to Israel in the visions of the night, and he said—Jacob! Jacob! And he said—Behold me!
Men Gud sagde i et Nattesyn til Israel: »Jakob, Jakob!« Og han svarede: »Se, her er jeg!«
3 And he said: I, am GOD himself, the God of thy father, —Be not afraid of going down to Egypt, seeing that for a great nation, will I plant thee there.
Da sagde han: »Jeg er Gud, din Faders Gud, vær ikke bange for at drage ned til Ægypten, thi jeg vil gøre dig til et stort Folk der;
4 I will go down with thee to Egypt, and I will bring thee up, yea wholly up, —and, Joseph, shall lay his own hand upon thine eyes.
jeg vil selv drage med dig til Ægypten, og jeg vil ogsaa føre dig tilbage, og Josef skal lukke dine Øjne!«
5 So Jacob rose up from Beer-sheba, —and the sons of Israel brought Jacob their father, and their little ones, and their wives, in the waggons which Pharaoh had sent to bring him;
Da brød Jakob op fra Be'ersjeba; og Israels Sønner satte deres Fader Jakob og deres Børn og Kvinder paa de Vogne, Farao havde sendt til at hente ham paa.
6 and they took their cattle and the gains which they had gained in the land of Canaan, and came into Egypt, —Jacob and all his seed with him:
Og de tog deres Kvæg og al deres Ejendom, som de havde erhvervet sig i Kana'ans Land, og drog til Ægypten, Jakob og alt hans Afkom med ham;
7 his sons, and his sons’ sons with him, his daughters, and his sons’ daughters, and all his seed, brought he with him into Egypt.
saaledes bragte han sine Sønner og Sønnesønner, sine Døtre og Sønnedøtre og alt sit Afkom med sig til Ægypten.
8 Now, these, are the names of the sons of Israel who came into Egypt—Jacob and his sons, —the firstborn of Jacob, Reuben:

28 And he sent, Judah, before him unto Joseph, to direct his face to Goshen, —so they came in towards the land of Goshen.
Men Juda sendte han i Forvejen til Josef, for at man skulde vise ham Vej til Gosen, og de kom til Gosens Land.
29 Then yoked Joseph his chariot, and went up to meet Israel his father towards Goshen, —and he appeared unto him, and fell upon his neck, and wept upon his neck a good while.
Da lod Josef spænde for sin Vogn og rejste sin Fader i Møde til Gosen; og da han traf ham, omfavnede han ham og græd længe i hans Arme;
30 Then said Israel unto Joseph I am ready to die at last, —now that I have seen thy face, in that thou art, yet alive.
og Israel sagde til Josef: »Lad mig nu kun dø, da jeg har set dit Ansigt, at du endnu lever!«
31 Then said Joseph unto his brethren and unto the house of his father, I must go up, and must tell Pharaoh—and must say unto him, My brethren, and the house of my father, who were in the land of Canaan, have come in unto me.
Men Josef sagde til sine Brødre og sin Faders Hus: »Jeg vil drage hen og melde det til Farao og sige til ham: Mine Brødre og min Faders Hus i Kana'an er kommet til mig;
32 Now, the men, are feeders of flocks, for men of cattle, they are, —and their flocks and their herds and all that they have, have they brought in.
disse Mænd er Hyrder, thi de driver Kvægavl, og de har bragt deres Smaakvæg og Hornkvæg og alt, hvad de ejer, med.
33 So shall it come to pass, when Pharaoh shall call for you, —and shall say—What is your occupation?
Naar saa Farao lader eder kalde og spørger eder, hvad I er,
34 Then shall ye say—Men of cattle, have thy servants been from our youth even until now, both we and our fathers, —To the end ye may dwell in the land of Goshen, for an abomination to Egyptians, is every feeder of a flock,
skal I sige: Dine Trælle har drevet Kvægavl fra Barnsben af ligesom vore Fædre! for at I kan komme til at bo i Gosens Land. Thi enhver Hyrde er Ægypterne en Vederstyggelighed.«
