1 E partiu Israel com tudo quanto tinha, e veio a Berseba, e ofereceu sacrifícios ao Deus de seu pai Isaque.
2 E falou Deus a Israel em visões de noite, e disse: Jacó, Jacó! E ele disse: Eis-me aqui.
3 E disse: Eu sou Deus, o Deus de teu pai; não temas descer ao Egito, porque eu te farei ali uma grande nação.
4 E descerei contigo ao Egito, e certamente te farei tornar a subir, e José porá a sua mão sobre os teus olhos.
5 Então levantou-se Jacó de Berseba; e os filhos de Israel levaram a seu pai Jacó, e seus meninos, e as suas mulheres, nos carros que Faraó enviara para o levar.
6 E tomaram o seu gado e os seus bens que tinham adquirido na terra de Canaã, e vieram ao Egito, Jacó e toda a sua descendência com ele;
7 Os seus filhos e os filhos de seus filhos com ele, as filhas, e as filhas de seus filhos, e toda a sua descendência levou consigo ao Egito.
8 E estes são os nomes dos filhos de Israel, que vieram ao Egito, Jacó e seus filhos: Rúben, o primogênito de Jacó.
9 E os filhos de Rúben: Enoque, Palu, Hezrom e Carmi.
10 E os filhos de Simeão: Jemuel, Jamim, Oade, Jaquim, Zoar e Saul, filho de uma mulher cananéia.
11 E os filhos de Levi: Gérson, Coate e Merari.
12 E os filhos de Judá: Er, Onã, Selá, Perez e Zerá; Er e Onã, porém, morreram na terra de Canaã; e os filhos de Perez foram Hezrom e Hamul.
13 E os filhos de Issacar: Tola, Puva, Jó e Sinrom.
14 E os filhos de Zebulom: Serede, Elom e Jaleel.
15 Estes são os filhos de Lia, que ela deu a Jacó em Padã-Arã, além de Diná, sua filha; todas as almas de seus filhos e de suas filhas foram trinta e três.
16 E os filhos de Gade: Zifiom, Hagi, Suni, Esbom, Eri, Arodi e Areli.
17 E os filhos de Aser: Imna, Isvá, Isvi, Berias e Sera, a irmã deles; e os filhos de Berias: Héber e Malquiel.
18 Estes são os filhos de Zilpa, a qual Labão deu à sua filha Lia; e deu a Jacó estas dezesseis almas.
19 Os filhos de Raquel, mulher de Jacó: José e Benjamim.
20 E nasceram a José na terra do Egito, Manassés e Efraim, que lhe deu Azenate, filha de Potífera, sacerdote de Om.
21 E os filhos de Benjamim: Belá, Bequer, Asbel, Gera, Naamã, Eí, Rôs, Mupim, Hupim e Arde.
22 Estes são os filhos de Raquel, que nasceram a Jacó, ao todo catorze almas.
23 E o filho de Dã: Husim.
24 E os filhos de Naftali: Jazeel, Guni, Jezer e Silém.
25 Estes são os filhos de Bila, a qual Labão deu à sua filha Raquel; e deu estes a Jacó; todas as almas foram sete.
26 Todas as almas que vieram com Jacó ao Egito, que saíram dos seus lombos, fora as mulheres dos filhos de Jacó, todas foram sessenta e seis almas.
27 E os filhos de José, que lhe nasceram no Egito, eram duas almas. Todas as almas da casa de Jacó, que vieram ao Egito, eram setenta.
28 E Jacó enviou Judá adiante de si a José, para o encaminhar a Gósen; e chegaram à terra de Gósen.
29 Então José aprontou o seu carro, e subiu ao encontro de Israel, seu pai, a Gósen. E, apresentando-se-lhe, lançou-se ao seu pescoço, e chorou sobre o seu pescoço longo tempo.
30 E Israel disse a José: Morra eu agora, pois já tenho visto o teu rosto, que ainda vives.
31 Depois disse José a seus irmãos, e à casa de seu pai: Eu subirei e anunciarei a Faraó, e lhe direi: Meus irmãos e a casa de meu pai, que estavam na terra de Canaã, vieram a mim!
32 E os homens são pastores de ovelhas, porque são homens de gado, e trouxeram consigo as suas ovelhas, e as suas vacas, e tudo o que têm.
33 Quando, pois, acontecer que Faraó vos chamar, e disser: Qual é o vosso negócio?
34 Então direis: Teus servos foram homens de gado desde a nossa mocidade até agora, tanto nós como os nossos pais; para que habiteis na terra de Gósen, porque todo o pastor de ovelhas é abominação aos egípcios.
1 And Israel took his journey with all that he had, and came to Beersheba, and offered sacrifices to the God of his father Isaac.
2 And God spoke to Israel in the visions of the night, and said, Jacob, Jacob. And he said, Here am I.
3 And he said, I am God, the God of your father: fear not to go down into Egypt; for I will there make of you a great nation:
4 I will go down with you into Egypt; and I will also surely bring you up again: and Joseph shall put his hand on your eyes.
5 And Jacob rose up from Beersheba: and the sons of Israel carried Jacob their father, and their little ones, and their wives, in the wagons which Pharaoh had sent to carry him.
6 And they took their cattle, and their goods, which they had gotten in the land of Canaan, and came into Egypt, Jacob, and all his seed with him:
7 His sons, and his sons'sons with him, his daughters, and his sons'daughters, and all his seed brought he with him into Egypt.
8 And these are the names of the children of Israel, which came into Egypt, Jacob and his sons: Reuben, Jacob' firstborn.
9 And the sons of Reuben; Hanoch, and Phallu, and Hezron, and Carmi.
10 And the sons of Simeon; Jemuel, and Jamin, and Ohad, and Jachin, and Zohar, and Shaul the son of a Canaanitish woman.
11 And the sons of Levi; Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.
12 And the sons of Judah; Er, and Onan, and Shelah, and Pharez, and Zarah: but Er and Onan died in the land of Canaan. And the sons of Pharez were Hezron and Hamul.
13 And the sons of Issachar; Tola, and Phuvah, and Job, and Shimron.
14 And the sons of Zebulun; Sered, and Elon, and Jahleel.
15 These be the sons of Leah, which she bore to Jacob in Padanaram, with his daughter Dinah: all the souls of his sons and his daughters were thirty and three.
16 And the sons of Gad; Ziphion, and Haggi, Shuni, and Ezbon, Eri, and Arodi, and Areli.
17 And the sons of Asher; Jimnah, and Ishuah, and Isui, and Beriah, and Serah their sister: and the sons of Beriah; Heber, and Malchiel.
18 These are the sons of Zilpah, whom Laban gave to Leah his daughter, and these she bore to Jacob, even sixteen souls.
19 The sons of Rachel Jacob' wife; Joseph, and Benjamin.
20 And to Joseph in the land of Egypt were born Manasseh and Ephraim, which Asenath the daughter of Potipherah priest of On bore to him.
21 And the sons of Benjamin were Belah, and Becher, and Ashbel, Gera, and Naaman, Ehi, and Rosh, Muppim, and Huppim, and Ard.
22 These are the sons of Rachel, which were born to Jacob: all the souls were fourteen.
23 And the sons of Dan; Hushim.
24 And the sons of Naphtali; Jahzeel, and Guni, and Jezer, and Shillem.
25 These are the sons of Bilhah, which Laban gave to Rachel his daughter, and she bore these to Jacob: all the souls were seven.
26 All the souls that came with Jacob into Egypt, which came out of his loins, besides Jacob' sons'wives, all the souls were three score and six;
27 And the sons of Joseph, which were born him in Egypt, were two souls: all the souls of the house of Jacob, which came into Egypt, were three score and ten.
28 And he sent Judah before him to Joseph, to direct his face to Goshen; and they came into the land of Goshen.
29 And Joseph made ready his chariot, and went up to meet Israel his father, to Goshen, and presented himself to him; and he fell on his neck, and wept on his neck a good while.
30 And Israel said to Joseph, Now let me die, since I have seen your face, because you are yet alive.
31 And Joseph said to his brothers, and to his father' house, I will go up, and show Pharaoh, and say to him, My brothers, and my father' house, which were in the land of Canaan, are come to me;
32 And the men are shepherds, for their trade has been to feed cattle; and they have brought their flocks, and their herds, and all that they have.
33 And it shall come to pass, when Pharaoh shall call you, and shall say, What is your occupation?
34 That you shall say, Your servants'trade has been about cattle from our youth even until now, both we, and also our fathers: that you may dwell in the land of Goshen; for every shepherd is an abomination to the Egyptians.
