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.
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 said to Israel in the visions of the night, and he said—Jacob! Jacob! And he said—Behold me!
Bondye te pale avèk Israël nan vizyon nan nwit lan. Li te di: “Jacob, Jacob.” Jacob te reponn: “Men mwen isit la.”
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.
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 thee to Egypt, and I will bring thee up, yea wholly up, —and, Joseph, shall lay his own hand upon thine 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 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;
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.
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:

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.
avèk fis li yo, fis a fis li yo, fi li yo avèk fi a fis li yo, ak tout desandan li yo. Li te mennen tout desandan avèk li, ale an Égypte.

Joseph te prepare cha li, li te monte Gosen pou rankontre papa li, Israël. Depi li te parèt devan li, li te tonbe nan kou li e li te kriye nan kou li pandan anpil tan.
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.

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.
Mesye sa yo se bèje, paske yo te konn okipe bèt. E yo te mennen bann mouton pa yo avèk twoupo pa yo, ak tout sa yo posede.’
33 So shall it come to pass, when Pharaoh shall call for you, —and shall say—What is your occupation?
“Lè Farawon rele nou e di: ‘Kisa nou fè kòm metye.’
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,
Nou va di: ‘Sèvitè ou yo ap okipe bèt depi lè nou te jenn jis rive koulye a, ni nou menm, ni papa nou yo,’ pou nou kapab viv nan peyi Gosen; paske tout bèje se yon abominasyon pou Ejipsyen yo.”
