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.
Ary niainga Isiraely nitondra izay rehetra nananany ka nankany Beri-sheba, dia namono zavatra hatao fanatitra ho an’ Andriamanitr’ Isaka rainy izy.
2 That night, God called to Jacob in a vision, saying, “Jacob! Jacob!” He replied, “I am here!”
Ary Andriamanitra niteny tamin’ Isiraely tao amin’ ny fahitana nony alina ka nanao ho: Ry Jakoba, ry Jakoba ô! Ary hoy kosa izy: Inty aho.
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.
Dia hoy Izy: Izaho no Andriamanitra, dia Andriamanitry ny rainao; aza matahotra hidina any Egypta ianao, fa hataoko firenena lehibe any ianao.
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]
Izaho hiara-midìna aminao ho any Egypta; ary Izaho hitondra anao hiakatra indray tokoa ary ny tànan’ i Josefa no hanirina ny masonao.
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.
Dia niainga Jakoba ka niala tao Beri-sheba; ary ny zanak’ Isiraely nitondra an’ i Jakoba rainy sy ny zanany madinika ary ny vadiny teo anatin’ ny sariety, izay efa nampitondrain’ i Farao hitondrana azy.
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.
Ary nentin’ izy ireo ny omby aman’ ondriny sy ny fananany, izay efa nohariny tany amin’ ny tany Kanana, dia tonga tany Egypta Jakoba sy ny zanany rehetra nomba azy:
7 Jacob went to Egypt with all his sons and his daughters and grandsons and granddaughters—his whole family.
ny zananilahy sy ny zafini-lahy nomba azy, ary ny zananivavy sy ny zafini-vavy; eny, nentiny nomba azy ho any Egypta avokoa ny zanany rehetra.
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.)

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.

Ary izao no anaran’ ny zanak’ Isiraely izay tonga tany Egypta, dia Jakoba sy ny zananilahy:

Ary ny zanakalahin’ i Benjamina dia Bela sy Bakera sy Asbela sy Gera sy Namana sy Ehy sy Rosy sy Mopima sy Hopima ary Arda.
Ireo no zanakalahin-dRahely, izay naterany tamin’ i Jakoba; efatra ambin’ ny folo ny isan’ izy rehetra.
Ary ny zanakalahin’ i Dana dia Hosima.
Ary ny zanakalahin’ i Naftaly dia Jaziela sy Gony sy Jezera ary Silema.
Ireo no zanakalahin’ i Bila, izay nomen’ i Labana an-dRahely zananivavy, ary ireo no naterak’ i Jakoba; fito no isan’ izy rehetra.
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.
Ny isan’ izay rehetra nankany Egypta niaraka tamin’ i Jakoba, dia izay naloaky ny kibony, afa-tsy ny vadin’ ny zanakalahin’ i Jakoba dia enina amby enim-polo.
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.
Ary ny zanakalahin’ i Josefa, izay naterany tany Egypta, dia roa lahy; ny isan’ ny terak’ i Jakoba rehetra, izay tonga tany Egypta, dia fito-polo.
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,
Ary Joda nirahiny nialoha azy hankany amin’ i Josefa mba hanoro lalana azy ho any Gosena; dia tonga tany amin’ ny tany Gosena izy.
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.
Ary Josefa nampanamboatra ny kalesiny, dia niakatra hitsena an’ Isiraely rainy tany Gosena izy; ary raha niseho taminy izy, dia namihina ny vozony ka nitomany ela teo amin’ ny vozony.
30 Jacob said to Joseph, “I have seen you and I know that you are still alive! So now I am ready to die.”
Ary hoy Isiraely tamin’ i Josefa: Aoka ho faty amin’ izao aho, satria efa hitako ny tavanao, fa mbola velona ihany ianao.
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.
Ary hoy Josefa tamin’ ny rahalahiny sy ny ankohonan’ ny rainy: Hiakatra aho hilaza amin’ i Farao ka hanao aminy hoe: Ny rahalahiko sy ny ankohonan’ ny raiko, izay tany amin’ ny tany Kanana, dia efa tonga atỳ amiko.
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.’
Ary mpiandry ondry ireo lehilahy ireo, fa mpiompy omby aman’ ondry izy; ary ny ondry aman’ osiny sy ny ombiny mbamin’ izay rehetra ananany dia nentiny avokoa.
33 When the king summons you and asks, ‘What work do you do?’
Ary raha hiantso anareo Farao ka hanao hoe: Inona no raharaha fanaonareo?
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.
dia izao no havalinareo: Miompy omby aman’ ondry no raharaha fanaon’ ny mpanomponao, hatry ny fony vao zaza ka ambaraka ankehitriny, dia izahay sy ny razanay koa mba hahazoanareo monina ao amin’ ny tany Gosena, satria fahavetavetana amin’ ny Egyptiana ny mpiandry ondry rehetra.
