And Israel took his journey with all that he had, and came to Beer-sheba; and he offered sacrifices to the God of his father Isaac.

And God spoke to Israel in the visions of the night and said, Jacob, Jacob! And he said, Here am I.
3 Ait illi Deus: Ego sum fortissimus Deus patris tui: noli timere, descende in Ægyptum, quia in gentem magnam faciam te ibi.
And he said, I am God, the God of thy father: fear not to go down to Egypt; for I will there make of thee a great nation.
4 Ego descendam tecum illuc, et ego inde adducam te revertentem: Ioseph quoque ponet manus suas super oculos tuos.
I will go down with thee to Egypt, and I will also certainly bring thee up; and Joseph shall put his hand on thine eyes.
