Chapter 46 | |
1 | And Israel took his journey with all that he had, and came to Beersheba, and offered sacrifices unto the God of his father Isaac. |
2 | And God spake unto Israel in the 1visions
of the night, and said, Jacob, Jacob. And he said, Here am I.
|
3 | And he said, I am God, the God of thy
father: fear not to go down into Egypt; for I will there make of thee a great
1nation:
|
4 | I will go down with thee into Egypt; and I will also surely bring thee up again: and Joseph shall put his hand upon thine 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: 1Reuben, Jacob's 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
1Onan, 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 bare unto 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 bare unto Jacob, even sixteen souls. |
19 | The sons of Rachel Jacob's wife; Joseph, and Benjamin. |
20 | And unto Joseph in the land of Egypt were born Manasseh and Ephraim, which Asenath the daughter of Potipherah priest of On bare unto 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 unto Rachel his daughter, and she bare these unto Jacob: all the souls were seven. |
26 | All the souls that came with Jacob into Egypt, which came out of his loins, besides Jacob's sons' wives, all the souls were threescore 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 threescore and ten. |
28 | And he sent Judah before him unto Joseph, to direct his face unto 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 unto him; and he fell on his neck, and wept on his neck a good while.
|
30 |
And Israel said unto Joseph, Now let me die, since I have seen thy face, because thou art yet alive. |
31 | And Joseph said unto his brethren, and unto his father's house, I will go up, and show Pharaoh, and say unto him, My brethren, and my father's house, which were in the land of Canaan, are come unto me; |
32 | And the men are shepherds, for their trade hath 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
ye shall say, Thy servants' trade hath been about cattle from our youth even
until now, both we, and also our fathers: that ye may dwell in the land of
Goshen; for every shepherd is an 1abomination unto the Egyptians.
