उत्पत्ति 46
1 इस्राएल आफूसँग भएका सबै थोक लिएर हिँडे र बेर्शेबा गए । त्यहाँ तिनले आफ्ना बुबा इसहाकका परमेश्वरको निम्ति बलिदान चढाए ।
So Israel set out with all that he had, and when he came to Beersheba, he offered sacrifices to the God of his father Isaac.
2 राती दर्शनमा परमेश्वर इस्राएलसँग यसो भन्दै बोल्नुभयो “याकूब, याकूब ।” तिनले भने, “म यहीँ छु ।”
And that night God spoke to Israel in a vision: “Jacob, Jacob!” He said. “Here I am,” replied Jacob.
3 उहाँले भन्नुभयो, “म परमेश्वर हुँ, तेरा बुबाका परमेश्वर । मिश्रमा जान नडरा, किनकि त्यहाँ म तँबाट एउटा ठुलो जाति बनाउनेछु ।
“I am God,” He said, “the God of your father. Do not be afraid to go down to Egypt, for I will make you into a great nation there.
4 म तँसँग मिश्रमा जानेछु, र म तँलाई निश्चय नै फेरि फर्काइ ल्याउनेछु, अनि योसेफकै हातले तेरा आँखा छोपिदिनेछ ।”
I will go down with you to Egypt, and I will surely bring you back. And Joseph’s own hands will close your eyes.”
5 त्यसपछि याकूब बेर्शेबाबाट हिँडे । इस्राएलका छोराहरूले आफ्ना बुबा याकूब, आफ्ना बालबच्चा र आफ्ना परिवारहरूलाई फारोले तिनलाई ल्याउन पठाएका गाडाहरूमा चढाएर लगे ।
Then Jacob departed from Beersheba, and the sons of Israel took their father Jacob in the wagons Pharaoh had sent to carry him, along with their children and wives.

28 गोशेनमा तिनलाई भेट्न आइदेऊन् भनी याकूबले यहूदालाई योसेफकहाँ खबर दिन आफ्नो अगि पठाए ।
Now Jacob had sent Judah ahead of him to Joseph to get directions to Goshen. When Jacob’s family arrived in the land of Goshen,
29 योसेफले आफ्नो रथ तयार गर्न लगाए र गोशेनसम्म आफ्ना बुबा इस्राएललाई भेट गर्न आए । योसेफले आफ्ना बुबालाई देखे, र बुबालाई अँगालो हालेर धेरै बेरसम्म रोए ।
Joseph prepared his chariot and went there to meet his father Israel. Joseph presented himself to him, embraced him, and wept profusely.
30 इस्राएलले योसेफलाई भने, “अब मलाई मर्न देओ, किनकि मैले तेरो मुख देखेँ र तँ जीवितै रहेछस् ।”
Then Israel said to Joseph, “Finally I can die, now that I have seen your face and know that you are still alive!”
31 योसेफले आफ्ना दाजुभाइहरू र आफ्ना बुबाका परिवारहरूलाई भने, “अब म गएर फारोलाई यसो भनेर खबर दिनेछु, ‘कनान देशका मेरा दाजुभाइहरू र मेरा बुबाका घरानाहरू मकहाँ आएका छन् ।
Joseph said to his brothers and to his father’s household, “I will go up and inform Pharaoh: ‘My brothers and my father’s household from the land of Canaan have come to me.
32 उनीहरू सबै गाईबस्तु पाल्ने भएकाले गोठाला हुन् । उनीहरूले आफ्ना सबै बगाल, बथान, र उनीहरूसँग भएका सबै थोक लिएर आएका छन् ।’
The men are shepherds; they raise livestock, and they have brought their flocks and herds and all that they own.’
33 जब फारोले तपाईंहरूलाई बोलाएर ‘तिमीहरूका कामधन्दा के हो?’ भनी सोध्छन्,
When Pharaoh summons you and asks, ‘What is your occupation?’
34 तब तपाईंहरूले यसो भन्नुपर्छ, ‘हजुरका दासहरू हामी बाबु-छोराहरू हाम्रा युवावस्थादेखि अहिलेसम्म गाईबस्तु पाल्दै आएका छौँ ।’ तपाईंहरूले यसो गर्नुभयो भने तपाईंहरूले गोशेनमा बसोबास गर्न पाउनुहुनेछ, किनभने हरेक गोठालोचाहिँ मिश्रीहरूको लागि घृणाको पात्र हो ।”
you are to say, ‘Your servants have raised livestock ever since our youth—both we and our fathers.’ Then you will be allowed to settle in the land of Goshen, since all shepherds are detestable to the Egyptians.”
