1And Israel took his journey with all that he had and came to Beersheba and offered sacrifices unto the God of his father Isaac. 2And God spoke unto Israel in visions of the night and said, Jacob, Jacob. And he said, Here [am] I. 3And he said, I [am] the God, the God of thy father; fear not to go down into Egypt; for there I will make of thee a great people. 4I 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. 5And Jacob rose up from Beersheba, and the sons of Israel took Jacob their father and their little ones and their wives in the wagons which Pharaoh had sent to carry him. 6And 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, 7his sons, and his sons' sons with him, his daughters, and his sons' daughters, and all his seed he brought with him into Egypt. 8And these [are] the names of the sons of Israel, who came into Egypt, Jacob and his sons: Reuben, Jacob's firstborn. 9And the sons of Reuben: Enoch, Phallu, Hezron, and Carmi. 10And the sons of Simeon: Jemuel, Jamin, Ohad, Jachin, Zohar, and Saul the son of a Canaanite woman. 11And the sons of Levi: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari. 12And the sons of Judah: Er and Onan and Shelah and Pharez and Zerah; but Er and Onan died in the land of Canaan. And the sons of Pharez were Hezron and Hamul. 13And the sons of Issachar: Tola, Phuvah, Job, and Shimron. 14And the sons of Zebulun: Sered, Elon, and Jahleel. 15These [are] the sons of Leah, whom she bore unto Jacob in Padanaram, with his daughter Dinah; all the souls of his sons and his daughters [were] thirty-three. 16And the sons of Gad: Ziphion, Haggi, Shuni, Ezbon, Eri, Arodi, and Areli. 17And the sons of Asher: Jimnah, Ishuah, Isui, 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 gave birth unto Jacob: sixteen souls. 19The sons of Rachel, Jacob's wife: Joseph and Benjamin. 20And unto Joseph in the land of Egypt were born Manasseh and Ephraim, whom Asenath the daughter of Potipherah priest of On gave birth unto him. 21And the sons of Benjamin [were] Belah, Becher, Ashbel, Gera, Naaman, Ehi, Rosh, Muppim, Huppim, and Ard. 22These [are] the sons of Rachel, who were born to Jacob, [in] all, fourteen souls. 23And the sons of Dan: Hushim. 24And the sons of Naphtali: Jahzeel, Guni, Jezer, and Shillem. 25These [are] the sons of Bilhah, who Laban gave unto Rachel his daughter, and she gave birth to these unto Jacob; [in] all seven souls. 26All the souls that came with Jacob into Egypt, which came out of his loins, besides Jacob's sons' wives, all the souls [were] sixty-six; 27and the sons of Joseph, who were born him in Egypt, [were] two souls. All the souls of the house of Jacob, who came into Egypt, [were] seventy. 28And he sent Judah before him unto Joseph, to direct his face unto Goshen; and they came into the land of Goshen. 29And Joseph made ready his chariot and went up to meet Israel his father, to Goshen, and manifested himself unto him; and he fell on his neck and wept on his neck a good while. 30Then Israel said unto Joseph, Now let me die since I have seen thy face because thou [art] yet alive. 31And Joseph said unto his brethren and unto his father's house, I will go up and tell Pharaoh and say unto him, My brethren and my father's house, who [were] in the land of Canaan, are come unto me; 32and the men [are] pastors of sheep, for their trade has been to feed livestock; and they have brought their sheep and their cows and all that they have. 33And it shall come to pass when Pharaoh shall call you and shall say, What [is] your occupation? 34Then ye shall say, Thy servants' trade has been about livestock from our youth even until now, both we [and] also our fathers, that ye may dwell in the land of Goshen; for every pastor of sheep [is] an abomination unto the Egyptians.:
