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.
Isalaele akendeki na nyonso oyo azalaki na yango. Tango akomaki na Beri-Sheba, abonzaki mbeka epai ya Nzambe ya Izaki, tata na ye.
2 And God said to Israel in the visions of the night, and he said—Jacob! Jacob! And he said—Behold me!
Na butu, Nzambe alobaki na Isalaele na nzela ya emoniseli: — Jakobi! Jakobi! Jakobi azongisaki: — Ngai oyo.
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.
Nzambe alobaki: — Nazali Nzambe, Nzambe ya tata na yo. Kobanga te kokende na Ejipito, pamba te nakokomisa yo ekolo monene kuna.
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.
Ngai moko nakokende elongo na yo na Ejipito; mpe ya solo, nakozongisa yo lisusu. Loboko ya Jozefi ekozipa miso na yo.
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;
Bongo Jakobi alongwaki na Beri-Sheba. Bana mibali ya Isalaele bamatisaki na bashario oyo Faraon atindaki mpo na komema ye: tata na bango Jakobi, bana na bango mpe basi na bango.
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:
Bamemaki lisusu bibwele na bango mpe biloko nyonso oyo bazalaki na yango na mokili ya Kanana; mpe Jakobi elongo na bakitani na ye nyonso bakendeki na Ejipito.
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.
Azwaki elongo na ye mpo na kokende na Ejipito: bana na ye ya mibali, bakoko na ye ya mibali mpe bana na ye ya basi elongo na bakoko na ye ya basi: bakitani na ye nyonso.
8 Now, these, are the names of the sons of Israel who came into Egypt—Jacob and his sons, —the firstborn of Jacob, Reuben:
Tala bakombo ya bana mibali ya Isalaele, oyo bakendeki na Ejipito: Ribeni, mwana liboso ya Jakobi.

15 These, are the sons of Leah whom she bare to Jacob in Padan-aram, with Dinah also his daughter, —All the souls of his sons and of his daughters, were thirty-three.
Bango nde bazalaki bana mibali oyo Lea abotelaki Jakobi kati na Padani-Arami; bakisa Dina, mwana mwasi. Bana na ye nyonso ya basi mpe ya mibali bazalaki tuku misato na misato.
16 And, the sons of Gad, —Zaphon and Haggi, Shuni and Ezbon, —Eri and Arodi and Areli;
Bana mibali ya Gadi: Tsefoni, Agi, Shuni, Etsiboni, Eri, Arodi mpe Areeli.
17 And, the sons of Asher, —Imnah and Ishvah and Ishvi and Beriah, and Serah their sister, —and the sons of Beriah, Heber and Malchiel.
Bana mibali ya Aseri: Yimina, Yishiva, Yishivi, Beria mpe ndeko na bango ya mwasi Sera. Bana mibali ya Beria: Eberi mpe Malikieli.
18 These, are the sons of Zilpah, whom Laban gave to Leah his daughter, —so she bare these to Jacob, —sixteen souls.
Bango nde bazalaki bana mibali oyo Zilipa abotelaki Jakobi; Zilipa azalaki mwasi mosali oyo Labani apesaki epai ya Lea, mwana na ye ya mwasi. Bana na ye nyonso ya basi mpe ya mibali bazalaki zomi na motoba.
19 The sons of Rachel, Jacob’s wife, —Joseph and Benjamin;
Bana mibali ya Rasheli, mwasi ya Jakobi: Jozefi mpe Benjame.
20 And there were born to Joseph in the land of Egypt, whom Asenath daughter of Poti-phera, priest of On, bare to him: Manasseh and Ephraim;
Kati na mokili ya Ejipito, Asinati, mwana mwasi ya Poti-Fera, nganga-nzambe ya engumba Oni, abotelaki Jozefi bana mibali mibale: Manase mpe Efrayimi.

Mwana mobali ya Dani: Ushimi.
24 And the sons of Naphtali, —Jahzeel and Guni, and Jezer and Shillem.

25 These, are the sons of Bilhah, whom Laban gave to Rachel his daughter, —so she bare these to Jacob, —all the souls, were seven.
Bango nde bazalaki bana mibali oyo Bila abotelaki Jakobi; bango nyonso bazalaki sambo. Bila azalaki mwasi mosali oyo Labani apesaki epai ya mwana na ye ya mwasi Rasheli.
26 All the souls that came in with Jacob to Egypt that had come forth of his loins, besides Jacob’s sons’ wives, —all the souls, were sixty-six;
Bato nyonso oyo bakendeki na Ejipito elongo na Jakobi, oyo bazalaki penza bakitani na ye, longola basi ya bana na ye, bango nyonso bazalaki tuku motoba na motoba.
27 and, the sons of Joseph who were born to him in Egypt, were two souls: All the souls of the house of Jacob that came into Egypt, were seventy.
Bana mibali ya Jozefi oyo babotamaki na Ejipito bazalaki mibale. Bato nyonso ya libota ya Jakobi oyo bakendeki na Ejipito bazalaki tuku sambo.
28 And he sent, Judah, before him unto Joseph, to direct his face to Goshen, —so they came in towards the land of Goshen.
Liboso ete Jakobi akutana na Jozefi, atindaki Yuda epai ya Jozefi mpo na kobongisa bokutani na bango na Gosheni. Tango bakomaki na Gosheni,
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.
Jozefi abongisaki Shario na ye mpe akendeki kokutana na Isalaele, tata na ye, na Gosheni. Tango kaka akomaki liboso na ye, ayambaki tata na ye mpe alelaki mingi.
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.
Isalaele alobaki na Jozefi: — Sik’oyo, nakoki na ngai kokufa mpo ete namoni yo penza na miso na ngai moko, mpe ozali nanu na bomoi!
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.
Jozefi alobaki na bandeko na ye mpe na libota ya tata na ye: — Nakokende koyebisa Faraon: « Bandeko na ngai mpe libota ya tata na ngai, ba-oyo bavandaka na mokili ya Kanana, bayei epai na ngai.
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.
Bazali babateli bibwele, babokolaka bibwele. Bamemi bameme, bantaba, bangombe na bango mpe biloko nyonso oyo bazalaki na yango. »
33 So shall it come to pass, when Pharaoh shall call for you, —and shall say—What is your occupation?
Tango Faraon akobenga bino mpe akotuna bino: « Bosalaka mosala nini? »
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,
Bokozongisa: « Basali na yo babokolaka bibwele wuta bomwana na biso kino sik’oyo ndenge bakoko na biso bazalaki kosala. » Soki kaka bolobi bongo, akopesa bino nzela ya kovanda na Gosheni, pamba te bato ya Ejipito balingaka te babateli nyonso ya bibwele.
