¹Yakub mengemasi segala miliknya lalu berangkat. Sampai di Bersyeba ia mempersembahkan kurban kepada Allah yang dipuja oleh Ishak ayahnya.

¹And Israel took his journey with all that he had, and came to Beer-sheba, and offered sacrifices unto the God of his father Isaac.

²Dalam suatu penglihatan pada waktu malam, Allah berkata kepadanya, "Yakub, Yakub!" "Ya, Tuhan," jawabnya.

²And God spake unto Israel in the visions of the night, and said, Jacob, Jacob. And he said, Here am I.

³"Aku Allah, Allah yang dipuja ayahmu," katanya. "Jangan takut untuk pergi ke Mesir. Aku akan menjadikan keturunanmu bangsa yang besar di sana.

³And 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 nation:

⁴Aku akan menyertai engkau ke Mesir, dan membawa keturunanmu kembali ke negeri ini. Yusuf akan ada di sampingmu apabila ajalmu tiba."

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.

⁵Lalu berangkatlah Yakub dari Bersyeba. Anak-anaknya menaikkan ayah mereka serta anak-istri mereka ke atas kereta yang dikirimkan raja Mesir.

⁵And Jacob rose up from Beer-sheba: 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.

²⁸Yakub menyuruh Yehuda berjalan mendahuluinya untuk memanggil Yusuf supaya menemui ayahnya di Gosyen. Ketika mereka sampai di Gosyen,

²⁸And he sent Judah before him unto Joseph, to show the way before him unto Goshen; and they came into the land of Goshen.

²⁹Yusuf naik keretanya untuk bertemu dengan ayahnya di situ. Waktu mereka berjumpa, Yusuf memeluk ayahnya dan lama menangis.

²⁹And Joseph made ready his chariot, and went up to meet Israel his father, to Goshen; and he presented himself unto him, and fell on his neck, and wept on his neck a good while.

³⁰Kata Yakub kepada Yusuf, "Sekarang aku rela mati, karena sudah melihat engkau dan tahu bahwa engkau masih hidup."

³⁰And Israel said unto Joseph, Now let me die, since I have seen thy face, that thou art yet alive.

³¹Lalu kata Yusuf kepada saudara-saudaranya dan sanak saudaranya yang lain, "Saya harus pergi dan memberitahukan kepada raja bahwa saudara-saudara saya dan seluruh sanak saudara saya yang tinggal di Kanaan telah datang.

³¹And Joseph said unto his brethren, and unto his father's house, I will go up, and tell Pharaoh, and will say unto him, My brethren, and my father's house, who were in the land of Canaan, are come unto me;

³²Saya akan mengatakan bahwa kalian gembala-gembala domba dan sapi, dan telah membawa ternakmu dan segala milikmu.

³²and the men are shepherds, for they have been keepers of cattle; and they have brought their flocks, and their herds, and all that they have.

³³Jika raja memanggil kalian dan menanyakan pekerjaanmu,

³³And it shall come to pass, when Pharaoh shall call you, and shall say, What is your occupation?

³⁴katakanlah kepadanya bahwa kalian ini pemelihara ternak sejak kecil, sama seperti leluhurmu. Dengan demikian ia akan menyuruh kalian tinggal di daerah Gosyen." Yusuf mengatakan hal itu karena orang Mesir merasa hina untuk bergaul dengan gembala-gembala.

³⁴that ye shall say, Thy servants have been keepers of cattle from our youth even until now, both we, and our fathers: that ye may dwell in the land of Goshen; for every shepherd is an abomination unto the Egyptians.
