Farawa 46
1 Saboda haka Isra’ila ya kama hanya da dukan abin da yake nasa, sa’ad da ya kai Beyersheba, sai ya miƙa hadayu ga Allah na Ishaku, mahaifinsa.
And Israel went on his journey with all he had, and came to Beer-sheba, where he made offerings to the God of his father Isaac.
2 Allah kuwa ya yi magana ga Isra’ila a wahayi da dare ya ce, “Yaƙub! Yaƙub!” Yaƙub kuwa ya amsa ya ce, “Ga ni.”
And God said to Israel in a night-vision, Jacob, Jacob. And he said, Here am I.
3 Sai Allah ya ce, “Ni ne Allah, Allah na mahaifinka. Kada ka ji tsoron zuwa Masar, gama zan mai da kai al’umma mai girma a can.
And he said, I am God, the God of your father: go down to Egypt without fear, for I will make a great nation of you there:
4 Zan gangara zuwa Masar tare da kai, tabbatacce zan sāke dawo da kai. Kuma hannun Yusuf zai rufe idanunka.”
I will go down with you to Egypt, and I will see that you come back again, and at your death Joseph will put his hands on your eyes.

And Joseph got his carriage ready and went to Goshen for the meeting with his father; and when he came before him, he put his arms round his neck, weeping.

32 Mutanen fa, makiyaya ne; suna kiwon dabbobi, sun kuma zo tare da garkunansu da shanunsa da kuma kome da suka mallaka.’
And these men are keepers of sheep and owners of cattle, and have with them their flocks and their herds and all they have.
33 Sa’ad da Fir’auna ya kira ku ciki, ya yi tambaya, ‘Mece ce sana’arku?’
Now when Pharaoh sends for you and says, What is your business?
34 Ku amsa, ‘Bayinka suna kiwon dabbobi ne, tun muna samari har zuwa yanzu, kamar yadda kakanninmu suka yi.’ Ta haka za a bar ku ku zauna a yankin Goshen, gama Masarawa suna ƙyamar makiyaya.”
You are to say, Your servants have been keepers of cattle from our early days up to now, like our fathers; in this way you will be able to have the land of Goshen for yourselves; because keepers of sheep are unclean in the eyes of the Egyptians.
