Genesis 46
1 Israel traveled with all that he had, and came to Beersheba, and offered sacrifices to the God of his father, Isaac.
Izrel biliri ije, ya na ihe niile o nwere rute Bịasheba. Ebe a, ọ chụrụ aja nye Chineke nke nna ya Aịzik.
2 God spoke to Israel in the visions of the night, and said, “Jacob, Jacob!” He said, “Here I am.”
Chineke gwara Izrel okwu nʼọhụ nke abalị. Ọ sịrị, “Jekọb! Jekọb!” Ọ zara sị, “Lee m nʼebe a.”
3 He said, “I am God, the God of your father. Don’t be afraid to go down into Egypt, for there I will make of you a great nation.
Chineke gwara ya sị, “Abụ m Chineke, Chineke nke nna gị. Atụla egwu ịgbada Ijipt nʼihi na aga m eme gị ka ị ghọọ mba dị ukwuu nʼebe ahụ.
4 I will go down with you into Egypt. I will also surely bring you up again. Joseph’s hand will close your eyes.”
Mụ onwe m ga-eso gị agbada nʼala Ijipt. Mụ onwe m ga-akpọlatakwa gị ọzọ. Josef nʼonwe ya ga-eji aka ya ekpuchikwa gị anya.”
5 Jacob rose up from Beersheba, and the sons of Israel carried Jacob, their father, their little ones, and their wives, in the wagons which Pharaoh had sent to carry him.
