Genesis 46
1 So Jacob left [Canaan], taking with him all his family and possessions. When they arrived at Beersheba, he offered sacrifices to God, the one whom his father Isaac worshiped.
Jacob el apweni ma lal nukewa ac som nu Beersheba, ac orek kisa we nu sin God lal Isaac, papa tumal.
2 That night, God called to Jacob in a vision, saying, “Jacob! Jacob!” He replied, “I am here!”
God El kaskas nu sel in sie aruruma ke fong sac ac pangnol, “Jacob, Jacob!” El topuk, “Nga pa inge.”
3 God said, “I am God, the one your father worshiped. Do not be afraid to go down to Egypt, because I will give you many descendants, and they will become a great nation there.
Ac God El fahk, “Nga pa God, God lun papa tomom. Nik kom sangeng in som nu Egypt. Nga fah oru tuh fwilin tulik nutum in sie matunfacl lulap in acn we.
4 I will go down to Egypt with you, and later I will bring [your descendants] back to Canaan again. And Joseph will be with you [MTY] when you die.” [IDM]
Nga ac wi kom som nu Egypt, ac nga fah folokonma fwilin tulik nutum nu in facl se inge. Joseph el ac fah oasr yurum ke pacl se kom ac misa.”
5 Jacob left Beersheba, and his sons took their father, their wives, and their children, in the carts that the king had sent for them to travel in.
Jacob el mukuila liki acn Beersheba. Wen natul ah srakulang Jacob, tulik srisrik natulos, ac mutan kialos fin wagon ma tokosra Egypt el supwama.
6 So Jacob and all his family went to Egypt. They took with them the livestock and all the other possessions that they had acquired in Canaan.
Elos us un kosro natulos ac ma lalos nukewa ma elos eisani in acn Canaan, ac som nu Egypt. Jacob el us fwilin tulik natul nukewa welul:
7 Jacob went to Egypt with all his sons and his daughters and grandsons and granddaughters—his whole family.
wen natul, wen nutin natul, acn natul, ac acn nutin natul nukewa.
8 (Here is/I will now give you) a list of the names of the members of Jacob’s family who went with him to Egypt: Reuben, Jacob’s oldest son; Reuben’s sons Hanoch, Pallu, Hezron, and Carmi; Simeon and his sons Jemuel, Jamin, Ohad, Jakin, Zohar, and Shaul, who was the son of a Canaan people-group woman; Levi and his sons Gershon, Kohath, and Merari; Judah and his sons, Shelah, Perez, and Zerah (his other sons, Er, and Onan, had died in Canaan); Perez and his two sons Hezron and Hamul; Issachar and his sons Tola, Puah, Jashub, and Shimron; Zebulon and his sons Sered, Elon, and Jahleel; (Those were the sons of Jacob and Leah, and their daughter Dinah, who were born in Paddan-Aram/Mesopotamia: There were 33 of them, altogether.) They had Gad and his sons Zephon, Haggi, Shuni, Ezbon, Eri, Arodi, and Areli; Asher and his sons Imnah, Ishvah, Ishvi, and Beriah; and their sister Serah; Beriah’s sons Heber and Malkiel; (Those were the children and grandchildren of Jacob and Zilpah, the slave girl whom Laban gave to his daughter Leah: There were 16 of them, altogether.) Joseph and Benjamin, the sons of Jacob’s wife Rachel; (Ephraim and Manasseh were Joseph’s two sons. [They did not go down to Egypt] because they were already in Egypt. They were sons of Asenath, the daughter of On, who was the priest in the temple in On [city].) Benjamin and his sons Bela, Beker, Ashbel, Gera, Naaman, Ehi, Rosh, Muppim, Huppim, and Ard; (Those were the sons and grandsons of Rachel and Jacob: There were 14 people altogether.)

26 Altogether there were 66 people who were Jacob’s descendants who went to Egypt with him. That number does not include his sons’ wives.
Pisen tulik na pwaye natul Jacob su som nu Egypt uh oasr ke mwet onngoul onkosr. Tia oaoa mutan kien wen natul uh.
27 Including Jacob and Joseph and Joseph’s two sons who were born in Egypt, there were 70 members of Jacob’s family when they were all there in Egypt.
Wen luo natul Joseph ma isusyang nu sel in Egypt ah fin weang pisa lulap se inge, ac oasr tulik itngoul nufon natul Jacob pa som nu Egypt.
28 Jacob sent Judah to go ahead of the rest of them to talk with Joseph and ask for directions on how to travel to Goshen. Then [Judah returned to the rest of his family and] they all traveled to the Goshen region. When they arrived there,
Jacob el supwalla Judah meet lukel in tuh siyuk Joseph elan osun nu selos in acn Goshen. Ke elos sun acn we,
29 Joseph got his chariot ready and went to Goshen to meet his father. When Joseph arrived, he threw his arms around his father’s neck and cried a long time.
Joseph el sroang nu fin chariot natul, ac som nu Goshen in osun nu sin papa tumal. Ke eltal osun, Joseph el kausma papa tumal ah nu yorol, ac tung ke pacl na loes se.
30 Jacob said to Joseph, “I have seen you and I know that you are still alive! So now I am ready to die.”
Jacob el fahk nu sel Joseph, “Inge ke nga liye kom tari ac etu lah kom srakna moul uh, nga mansis na ngan misa.”
31 Then Joseph said to his [older] brothers [and younger brother] and to the rest of his father’s family, “I will go to the king and say to him, ‘My [older] brothers [and younger brother] and my father and the rest of his family, who were living in Canaan land, have all come to me.
Na Joseph el fahk nu sin mwet lel ac mwet saya nukewa in sou lun papa tumal, “Nga enenu in som ac fahk nu sel tokosra lah mwet wiuk, ac mwet nukewa in sou lun papa tumuk su tuh muta Canaan, elos tuku nu yuruk.
32 The men are all shepherds. They take care of their livestock, and they have brought with them their sheep and goats and cattle, and everything else that they own.’
Nga ac fahk nu sel lah komtal mwet liyaung sheep ac karingin un kosro, ac nga ac fahk pac lah komtal us un kosro nutumtal ac ma lomtal nukewa saya.
33 When the king summons you and asks, ‘What work do you do?’
Ke tokosra el ac pangon komtal nu yorol ac siyuk lah orekma fuka lomtal,
34 answer him by saying, ‘From the time when we were young, we have taken care of livestock, just as our ancestors did.’ If you tell him that, he will let you live in the Goshen region.” Joseph told them to say that because the people of Egypt despised all shepherds.
aklohya na fahkang nu sel lah komtal mwet karingin kosro in moul lomtal nufon, oana mwet matu lomtal meet ah. Komtal fin fahk ouinge, na el ac lela komtal in muta in acn Goshen.” Joseph el fahk ouinge mweyen mwet liyaung kosro uh ma srungayuk se sin mwet Egypt.
