< 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.
Pea fononga ʻa ʻIsileli mo e meʻa kotoa pē naʻa ne maʻu, pea haʻu ia ki Peasipa, pea ne ʻatu ʻi ai ʻae ngaahi feilaulau ki he ʻOtua ʻo ʻene tamai ko ʻAisake.
2 And God said to Israel in the visions of the night, and he said—Jacob! Jacob! And he said—Behold me!
Pea naʻe folofola ʻae ʻOtua kia ʻIsileli ʻi he ngaahi meʻa hā mai ʻoe pō, ʻo ne pehē, “Sēkope, Sēkope;” pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ko au eni.”
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.
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ko e ʻOtua au, ko e ʻOtua ʻo hoʻo tamai: ʻOua naʻa ke manavahē ke ʻalu hifo ki ʻIsipite, he te u ngaohi ʻaki koe ʻi ai ʻae puleʻanga lahi.
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.
Pea te u ʻalu mo koe ki ʻIsipite; pea ko e moʻoni te u toe ʻomi koe mei ai; pea ʻe ʻai ʻe Siosefa hono nima ki ho mata.”
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;
Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ʻa Sēkope mei Peasipa: pea ko e ngaahi foha ʻo ʻIsileli naʻa nau ʻomi ʻa ʻenau tamai ko Sēkope, mo ʻenau fānau, mo honau ngaahi uaifi ʻi he ngaahi saliote naʻe fekau ʻe Felo ke fetuku ʻaki ʻakinautolu.
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:
Pea naʻa nau ʻave ʻenau fanga manu mo ʻenau koloa, naʻa nau maʻu ʻi he fonua ko Kēnani, ʻo nau haʻu ki ʻIsipite, ʻa Sēkope, mo hono hako kotoa pē mo ia:
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.
Ko hono ngaahi foha, mo e ngaahi foha ʻo hono ngaahi foha mo ia, mo e ngaahi ʻofefine ʻo hono ngaahi foha, mo hono hako kotoa pē, naʻe haʻu mo ia ki ʻIsipite.
8 Now, these, are the names of the sons of Israel who came into Egypt—Jacob and his sons, —the firstborn of Jacob, Reuben:
Pea ko e ngaahi hingoa eni ʻoe fānau ʻa ʻIsileli naʻe haʻu ki ʻIsipite, ko Sēkope mo hono ngaahi foha: ko Lupeni ko e ʻuluaki ʻo Sēkope.
9 And, the sons of Reuben, —Hanoch and Pallu, and Hezron and Carmi;

12 And the sons of Judah, —Er and Onan and Shelah, and Perez and Zerah, —but Er and Onan died in the land of Canaan, and the sons of Perez were Hezron and Hamul;
Pea ko e ngaahi foha ʻo Siuta; ko ʻEa, mo ʻOnani, mo Felesi, mo Selaa, ka naʻe mate ʻa ʻEa mo ʻOnani ʻi he fonua ko Kēnani, pea ko e ongo foha ʻo Felesi ko Hesiloni mo Hamuli.

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.
Ko e ngaahi tama eni ʻa Lia, naʻa ne fāʻeleʻi kia Sēkope ʻi Petanalami, mo hono ʻofefine ko Taina; ko e laumālie ʻo hono ngaahi foha mo hono ngaahi ʻofefine naʻe toko tolungofulu ma toko tolu.
16 And, the sons of Gad, —Zaphon and Haggi, Shuni and Ezbon, —Eri and Arodi and Areli;

Pea ko e ngaahi foha ʻo ʻAseli; ko Simina, mo ʻIsua, mo ʻIsui, mo Pelia, mo Sela, ko honau tuofefine; pea ko e ongo foha ʻo Pelia; ko Hepa, mo Malikieli.
18 These, are the sons of Zilpah, whom Laban gave to Leah his daughter, —so she bare these to Jacob, —sixteen souls.
Ko e ngaahi tama eni ʻa Silipa, ʻaia ne foaki ʻe Lepani ki hono ʻofefine ko Lia, pea ne fanauʻi ʻakinautolu ni kia Sēkope, ko e laumālie ʻe hongofulu ma ono.
19 The sons of Rachel, Jacob’s wife, —Joseph and Benjamin;
Pea ko e fānau ʻa Lesieli ko e uaifi ʻo Sēkope; ko Siosefa, mo Penisimani.
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;
Pea naʻe tupu ia Siosefa ʻi he fonua ko ʻIsipite, ʻa Manase, mo ʻIfalemi, ʻaia naʻe fanauʻi kiate ia ʻe ʻAsinate ko e ʻofefine ʻo Potifela ko e taulaʻeiki ʻo ʻOni.
21 And the sons of Benjamin—Bela and Becher, and Ashbel, Gera and Naaman, Ehi and Rosh, —Muppim and Huppim, and Ard.
Pea ko e ngaahi foha ʻo Penisimani, ko Pela, mo Pekeli, mo ʻAsipeli, mo Kela, mo Neemani, mo ʻEhi, mo Losi, mo Mupimi, mo Hupimi, mo ʻAliti.
22 These, are the sons of Rachel, who were born to Jacob, —all the souls, were fourteen.
Ko e ngaahi tama eni ʻa Lesieli, naʻe tupu kia Sēkope; ko e laumālie kotoa pē, naʻe toko hongofulu ma toko fā.
23 And, the sons of Dan, —Hushim;
Pea ko e foha ʻo Tani; ko Husami.
24 And the sons of Naphtali, —Jahzeel and Guni, and Jezer and Shillem.
Pea ko e ngaahi foha ʻo Nafitali, ko Saseili, mo Kuni; mo Seseli, mo Silemi.
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.
Ko e ngaahi tama eni ʻa Pila, ʻaia naʻe foaki ʻe Lepani, ki hono ʻofefine ko Lesieli, pea ne fānau ʻakinautolu ni kia Sēkope; ko e laumālie kotoa pē naʻe toko fitu.
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;
Ko e laumālie kotoa pē naʻe haʻu mo Sēkope ki ʻIsipite, ʻaia naʻe tupu ʻiate ia, ka ʻoku ʻikai lau ʻae ngaahi uaifi ʻoe ngaahi foha ʻo Sēkope; ko e laumālie ʻe toko onongofulu ma toko ono.
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.
Pea ko e ongo foha ʻo Siosefa naʻe fānau kiate ia ʻi ʻIsipite, ko e laumālie ʻe toko ua: pea ko e laumālie kotoa pē ʻoe fale ʻo Sēkope, naʻe haʻu ki ʻIsipite, naʻa nau toko fitungofulu.
28 And he sent, Judah, before him unto Joseph, to direct his face to Goshen, —so they came in towards the land of Goshen.
Pea naʻa ne fekau ʻa Siuta ke muʻomuʻa ʻiate ia, ke fakahinohino ia ki Koseni; pea naʻa nau hoko ki he fonua ko Koseni.
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.
Pea teuteu ʻe Siosefa hono saliote, pea ʻalu ia ke fakafetaulaki ki heʻene tamai ʻi Koseni, ʻo ne fakahā ia kiate ia: pea ne fāʻufua ia ʻo faʻaki ki hono kia ʻo tangi fuoloa.
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.
Pea pehē ʻe ʻIsileli kia Siosefa, “Ko eni tuku ke u mate, he koeʻuhi kuo u mamata ki ho mata, pea ʻoku ke kei moʻui.”
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.
Pea pehē ʻe Siosefa ki hono ngaahi tokoua mo e fale ʻo ʻene tamai, “Te u ʻalu hake ʻo fakahā kia Felo, ʻo tala kiate ia, ko hoku ngaahi tokoua, mo e fale ʻo ʻeku tamai ʻaia naʻe ʻi he fonua ko Kēnani, kuo nau haʻu kiate au.
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.
Pea ko e kau tauhi sipi ʻae kau tangata, he ko ʻenau ngāue ko e fafanga ʻae fanga manu; pea kuo nau ʻomi ʻenau fanga manu mo e meʻa kotoa pē ʻoku nau maʻu.
33 So shall it come to pass, when Pharaoh shall call for you, —and shall say—What is your occupation?
Pea ʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻoka ui ʻa Felo kiate kimoutolu, ʻo ne fehuʻi pe ko e hā ʻa hoʻomou faiva;
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,
Pea te mou pehē, ‘Ko e ngāue ʻa hoʻo kau tamaioʻeiki talu ʻemau kei siʻi ʻo fai mai ni, ʻio ʻakimautolu mo ʻemau ngaahi tamai, ko e tauhimanu;’ koeʻuhi ke mou nofo ʻi he fonua ko Koseni,” he ʻoku fakalielia ki he kakai ʻIsipite, ʻae tauhi sipi kotoa pē.
