Génesis 46

1E partiu-se Israel com tudo o que tinha, e veio a Berseba, e ofereceu sacrifícios ao Deus de seu pai Isaque. 2E falou Deus a Israel em visões de noite, e disse: Jacó, Jacó. E ele respondeu: Eis-me aqui. 3E disse: Eu sou Deus, o Deus de teu pai; não temas de descer ao Egito, porque eu te farei ali em grande nação. 4Eu descerei contigo ao Egito, e eu também te farei voltar; e José porá sua mão sobre teus olhos. 5E levantou-se Jacó de Berseba; e tomaram os filhos de Israel a seu pai Jacó, e a seus filhos, e a suas mulheres, nos carros que Faraó havia enviado para levá-lo. 6E tomaram seus gados, e sua riqueza que havia adquirido na terra de Canaã, e vieram-se ao Egito, Jacó, e toda sua descendência consigo; 7Seus filhos, e os filhos de seus filhos consigo; suas filhas, e as filhas de seus filhos, e a toda sua descendência trouxe consigo ao Egito. 8E estes são os nomes dos filhos de Israel, que entraram no Egito, Jacó e seus filhos: Rúben, o primogênito de Jacó. 9E os filhos de Rúben: Enoque, e Palu, e Hezrom, e Carmi. 10E os filhos de Simeão: Jemuel, e Jamim, e Oade, e Jaquim, e Zoar, e Saul, filho da cananeia. 11E os filhos de Levi: Gérson, Coate, e Merari. 12E os filhos de Judá: Er, e Onã, e Selá, e Perez, e Zerá: mas Er e Onã, morreram na terra de Canaã. E os filhos de Perez foram Hezrom e Hamul. 13E os filhos de Issacar: Tola, e Puva, e Jó, e Sinrom. 14E os filhos de Zebulom: Serede e Elom, e Jaleel. 15Estes foram os filhos de Lia, os que deu a Jacó em Padã-Arã, e além de sua filha Diná: trinta e três as almas todas de seus filhos e filhas. 16E os filhos de Gade: Zifiom, e Hagi, e Suni, e Ezbom, e Eri, e Arodi, e Areli. 17E os filhos de Aser: Imna, e Isva, e Isvi y Berias, e Sera, irmã deles. Os filhos de Berias: Héber, e Malquiel. 18Estes foram os filhos de Zilpa, a que Labão deu a sua filha Lia, e deu estes a Jacó; todas dezesseis almas. 19E os filhos de Raquel, mulher de Jacó: José e Benjamim. 20E nasceram a José na terra do Egito Manassés e Efraim, os que lhe deu Azenate, filha Potífera, sacerdote de Om. 21E os filhos de Benjamim foram Belá, e Bequer e Asbel, e Gera, e Naamã, e Eí, e Rôs e Mupim, e Hupim, e Arde. 22Estes foram os filhos de Raquel, que nasceram a Jacó: ao todo, catorze almas. 23E os filhos de Dã: Husim. 24E os filhos de Naftali: Jazeel, e Guni, e Jezer, e Silém. 25Estes foram os filhos de Bila, a que deu Labão a Raquel sua filha, e ela deu à luz estes a Jacó; todas sete almas. 26Todas as pessoas que vieram com Jacó ao Egito, procedentes de seus lombos, sem as mulheres dos filhos de Jacó, todas as pessoas foram sessenta e seis. 27E os filhos de José, que lhe nasceram no Egito, duas pessoas. Todas as almas da casa de Jacó, que entraram no Egito, foram setenta. 28E enviou a Judá adiante de si a José, para que lhe viesse a ver a Gósen; e chegaram à terra de Gósen. 29E José preparou seu carro e veio a receber a Israel seu pai a Gósen; e se manifestou a ele, e lançou-se sobre seu pescoço, e chorou sobre seu pescoço bastante. 30Então Israel disse a José: Morra eu agora, já que vi teu rosto, pois ainda vives. 31E José disse a seus irmãos, e à casa de seu pai: Subirei e farei saber a Faraó, e lhe direi: Meus irmãos e a casa de meu pai, que estavam na terra de Canaã, vieram a mim; 32E os homens são pastores de ovelhas, porque são homens criadores de gado: e trouxeram suas ovelhas e suas vacas, e tudo o que tinham. 33E quando Faraó vos chamar e disser: qual é vosso ofício? 34Então direis: Homens de criação de gado foram teus servos desde nossa juventude até agora, nós e nossos pais; a fim que moreis na terra de Gósen, porque os egípcios abominam todo pastor de ovelhas.

1Israel traveled with all that he had, and came to Beersheba, and offered sacrifices to the God of his father, Isaac. 2God spoke to Israel in the visions of the night, and said, “Jacob, Jacob!” He said, “Here I am.” 3He said, “I am God, the God of your father. Don’t be afraid to go down into Egypt, for there I will make of you a great nation. 4I will go down with you into Egypt. I will also surely bring you up again. Joseph will close your eyes.” 5Jacob rose up from Beersheba, and the sons of Israel carried Jacob, their father, their little ones, and their wives, in the wagons which Pharaoh had sent to carry him. 6They took their livestock, and their goods, which they had gotten in the land of Canaan, and came into Egypt—Jacob, and all his seed with him, 7his sons, and his sons’ sons with him, his daughters, and his sons’ daughters, and he brought all his seed with him into Egypt. 8These are the names of the children of Israel, who came into Egypt, Jacob and his sons: Reuben, Jacob’s firstborn. 9The sons of Reuben: Hanoch, Pallu, Hezron, and Carmi. 10The sons of Simeon: Jemuel, Jamin, Ohad, Jachin, Zohar, and Shaul the son of a Canaanite woman. 11The sons of Levi: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari. 12The sons of Judah: Er, Onan, Shelah, Perez, and Zerah; but Er and Onan died in the land of Canaan. The sons of Perez were Hezron and Hamul. 13The sons of Issachar: Tola, Puvah, Iob, and Shimron. 14The sons of Zebulun: Sered, Elon, and Jahleel. 15These are the sons of Leah, whom she bore to Jacob in Paddan Aram, with his daughter Dinah. All the souls of his sons and his daughters were thirty-three. 16The sons of Gad: Ziphion, Haggi, Shuni, Ezbon, Eri, Arodi, and Areli. 17The sons of Asher: Imnah, Ishvah, Ishvi, Beriah, and Serah their sister. The sons of Beriah: Heber and Malchiel. 18These are the sons of Zilpah, whom Laban gave to Leah, his daughter, and these she bore to Jacob, even sixteen souls. 19The sons of Rachel, Jacob’s wife: Joseph and Benjamin. 20To Joseph in the land of Egypt were born Manasseh and Ephraim, whom Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera, priest of On, bore to him. 21The sons of Benjamin: Bela, Becher, Ashbel, Gera, Naaman, Ehi, Rosh, Muppim, Huppim, and Ard. 22These are the sons of Rachel, who were born to Jacob: all the souls were fourteen. 23The son of Dan: Hushim. 24The sons of Naphtali: Jahzeel, Guni, Jezer, and Shillem. 25These are the sons of Bilhah, whom Laban gave to Rachel, his daughter, and these she bore to Jacob: all the souls were seven. 26All the souls who came with Jacob into Egypt, who were his direct descendants, besides Jacob’s sons’ wives, all the souls were sixty-six. 27The sons of Joseph, who were born to him in Egypt, were two souls. All the souls of the house of Jacob, who came into Egypt, were seventy. 28He sent Judah before him to Joseph, to show the way before him to Goshen, and they came into the land of Goshen. 29Joseph prepared his chariot, and went up to meet Israel, his father, in Goshen. He presented himself to him, and fell on his neck, and wept on his neck a good while. 30Israel said to Joseph, “Now let me die, since I have seen your face, that you are still alive.” 31Joseph 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, have come to me. 32These men are shepherds, for they have been keepers of livestock, and they have brought their flocks, and their herds, and all that they have.’ 33It will happen, when Pharaoh summons you, and will say, ‘What is your occupation?’ 34that 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; for every shepherd is an abomination to the Egyptians.”

1En Israel verreisde met al wat hij had, en hij kwam te Ber-seba, en hij offerde offeranden aan den God van zijn vader Izak. 2En God sprak tot Israel in gezichten des nachts, en zeide: Jakob, Jakob! En hij zeide: Zie, hier ben ik! 3En Hij zeide: Ik ben die God, uws vaders God; vrees niet van af te trekken naar Egypte; want Ik zal u aldaar tot een groot volk zetten. 4Ik zal met u aftrekken naar Egypte en Ik zal u doen weder optrekken, mede optrekkende; en Jozef zal zijn hand op uw ogen leggen. 5Toen maakte zich Jakob op van Ber-seba; en de zonen van Israel voerden Jakob hun vader, en hun kinderen, en hun vrouwen, op de wagenen, die Farao gezonden had, om hem te voeren. 6En zij namen hun vee, en hun have, die zij in het land Kanaan geworven hadden, en zij kwamen in Egypte, Jakob en al zijn zaad met hem; 7Zijn zonen, en de zonen zijner zonen met hem; zijn dochteren, en zijner zonen dochteren, en al zijn zaad bracht hij met zich in Egypte. 8En dit zijn de namen der zonen van Israel, die in Egypte kwamen: Jakob en zijn zonen. De eerstgeborene van Jakob: Ruben. 9En de zonen van Ruben: Hanoch, en Pallu, en Hezron, en Karmi. 10En de zonen van Simeon: Jemuel, en Jamin, en Ohad, en Jachin, en Zoar, en Saul, de zoon ener Kanaanietische vrouw. 11En de zonen van Levi: Gerson, Kehath en Merari. 12En de zonen van Juda: Er, en Onan, en Sela, en Perez, en Zerah. Doch Er en Onan waren gestorven in het land van Kanaan; en de zonen van Perez waren Hezron en Hamul. 13En de zonen van Issaschar: Tola, en Puwa, en Job, en Simron. 14En de zonen van Zebulon: Sered, en Elon, en Jahleel. 15Dit zijn de zonen van Lea, die zij Jakob gebaard heeft in Paddan-Aram, met Dina zijn dochter; al de zielen zijner zonen en zijner dochteren waren drie en dertig. 16En de zonen van Gad: Zifjon en Haggi, Schuni en Ezbon, Eri en Arodi, en Areli. 17En de zonen van Aser: Jimna, en Jisva, en Jisvi, en Berija, en Sera, hun zuster; en de zonen van Berija: Heber en Malchiel. 18Dit zijn de zonen van Zilpa, die Laban aan zijn dochter Lea gegeven had; en zij baarde Jakob deze zestien zielen. 19De zonen van Rachel, Jakobs huisvrouw: Jozef en Benjamin. 20En Jozef werden geboren in Egypteland, Manasse en Efraim, die hem Asnath, de dochter van Potifera, den overste te On, baarde. 21En de zonen van Benjamin: Bela, Becher en Asbel, Gera en Naaman, Echi en Ros, Muppim en Huppim, en Ard. 22Dit zijn de zonen van Rachel, die Jakob geboren zijn, al te zamen veertien zielen. 23En de zonen van Dan: Chusim. 24En de zonen van Nafthali: Jahzeel, en Guni, en Jezer, en Sillem. 25Dit zijn de zonen van Bilha, die Laban aan zijn dochter Rachel gegeven had; en zij baarde dezelve Jakob, zij waren allen zeven zielen. 26Al de zielen, die met Jakob in Egypte kwamen, uit zijn heup gesproten, uitgenomen de vrouwen van de zonen van Jakob, waren allen zes en zestig zielen. 27En de zonen van Jozef, die hem in Egypte geboren zijn, waren twee zielen. Al de zielen van het huis van Jakob, die in Egypte kwamen, waren zeventig. 28En hij zond Juda voor zijn aangezicht heen tot Jozef, om voor zijn aangezicht aanwijzing te doen naar Gosen; en zij kwamen in het land Gosen. 29Toen spande Jozef zijn wagen aan, en toog op, zijn vader Israel tegemoet naar Gosen; en als hij zich aan hem vertoonde, zo viel hij hem aan zijn hals, en weende lang aan zijn hals. 30En Israel zeide tot Jozef: Dat ik nu sterve, nadat ik uw aangezicht gezien heb, dat gij nog leeft! 31Daarna zeide Jozef tot zijn broederen, en tot zijns vaders huis: Ik zal optrekken en Farao boodschappen, en tot hem zeggen: Mijn broeders en het huis mijns vaders, die in het land Kanaan waren, zijn tot mij gekomen. 32En die mannen zijn schaapherders; want het zijn mannen, die met vee omgaan; en zij hebben hun schapen, en hun runderen, en al wat zij hebben, medegebracht. 33Wanneer het nu geschieden zal, dat Farao ulieden zal roepen, en zeggen: Wat is uw hantering? 34Zo zult gij zeggen: Uw knechten zijn mannen, die van onze jeugd af tot nu toe met vee omgegaan hebben, zo wij als onze vaders; opdat gij in het land Gosen moogt wonen; want alle schaapherder is de Egyptenaren een gruwel.
