Genesisy 46
1 Ary niainga Isiraely nitondra izay rehetra nananany ka nankany Beri-sheba, dia namono zavatra hatao fanatitra ho an’ Andriamanitr’ Isaka rainy izy.
Israel [God prevails] traveled with all that he had, and came to Be'er-Sheva [Well of Seven, Well of an Oath], and offered sacrifices to the God of his father, Isaac [Laughter].
2 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.
God spoke to Israel [God prevails] in the visions of the night, and said, “Jacob [Supplanter], Jacob [Supplanter]!” He said, “Here I am.”
3 Dia hoy Izy: Izaho no Andriamanitra, dia Andriamanitry ny rainao; aza matahotra hidina any Egypta ianao, fa hataoko firenena lehibe any ianao.
He said, “I am God, the God of your father. Don’t be afraid to go down into Egypt [Abode of slavery], for there I will make of you a great nation.
4 Izaho hiara-midìna aminao ho any Egypta; ary Izaho hitondra anao hiakatra indray tokoa ary ny tànan’ i Josefa no hanirina ny masonao.
I will go down with you into Egypt [Abode of slavery]. I will also surely bring you up again. Joseph [May he add] will close your eyes.”
5 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.
Jacob [Supplanter] rose up from Be'er-Sheva [Well of Seven, Well of an Oath], and the sons of Israel [God prevails] carried Jacob [Supplanter], their father, their little ones, and their wives, in the wagons which Pharaoh had sent to carry him.
6 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:
They took their livestock, and their goods, which they had gotten in the land of Canaan [Humbled], and came into Egypt [Abode of slavery]— Jacob, and all his offspring with him,
7 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.

31 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.
Joseph [May he add] said to his brothers, and to his father’s house, “I will go up, and speak with Pharaoh, and will tell him, ‘My brothers, and my father’s house, who were in the land of Canaan [Humbled], have come to me.
32 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.
These men are shepherds, for they have been keepers of livestock, and they have brought their flocks, and their herds, and all that they have.’
33 Ary raha hiantso anareo Farao ka hanao hoe: Inona no raharaha fanaonareo?
It will happen, when Pharaoh summons you, and will say, ‘What is your occupation?’
34 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.
that you shall say, ‘Your servants have been keepers of livestock from our youth even until now, both we, and our fathers:’ that you may dwell in the land of Goshen [Drawing near]; for every shepherd is an abomination to the Egyptians [people from Abode of slavery].”
