Jacob Goes to Egypt
46 So Israel(A) set out with all that was his, and when he reached Beersheba,(B) he offered sacrifices(C) to the God of his father Isaac.(D)
2 And God spoke to Israel(E) in a vision at night(F) and said, “Jacob! Jacob!”
“Here I am,”(G) he replied.
3 “I am God, the God of your father,”(H) he said. “Do not be afraid(I) to go down to Egypt,(J) for I will make you into a great nation(K) there.(L) 4 I will go down to Egypt with you, and I will surely bring you back again.(M) And Joseph’s own hand will close your eyes.(N)”
5 Then Jacob left Beersheba,(O) and Israel’s(P) sons took their father Jacob and their children and their wives in the carts(Q) that Pharaoh had sent to transport him. 6 So Jacob and all his offspring went to Egypt,(R) taking with them their livestock and the possessions(S) they had acquired(T) in Canaan. 7 Jacob brought with him to Egypt(U) his sons and grandsons and his daughters and granddaughters—all his offspring.(V)

19 The sons of Jacob’s wife Rachel:(BB)

22 These were the sons of Rachel(BJ) who were born to Jacob—fourteen in all.

26 All those who went to Egypt with Jacob—those who were his direct descendants, not counting his sons’ wives—numbered sixty-six persons.(BP) 27 With the two sons[f] who had been born to Joseph in Egypt,(BQ) the members of Jacob’s family, which went to Egypt, were seventy[g] in all.(BR)
28 Now Jacob sent Judah(BS) ahead of him to Joseph to get directions to Goshen.(BT) When they arrived in the region of Goshen, 29 Joseph had his chariot(BU) made ready and went to Goshen to meet his father Israel.(BV) As soon as Joseph appeared before him, he threw his arms around his father[h] and wept(BW) for a long time.(BX)
30 Israel(BY) said to Joseph, “Now I am ready to die, since I have seen for myself that you are still alive.”(BZ)
31 Then Joseph said to his brothers and to his father’s household, “I will go up and speak to Pharaoh and will say to him, ‘My brothers and my father’s household, who were living in the land of Canaan,(CA) have come to me.(CB) 32 The men are shepherds;(CC) they tend livestock,(CD) and they have brought along their flocks and herds and everything they own.’(CE) 33 When Pharaoh calls you in and asks, ‘What is your occupation?’(CF) 34 you should answer, ‘Your servants(CG) have tended livestock from our boyhood on, just as our fathers did.’(CH) Then you will be allowed to settle(CI) in the region of Goshen,(CJ) for all shepherds are detestable to the Egyptians.(CK)”

Genesis 46
Ang Salita ng Dios (Tagalog Contemporary Bible)
Pumunta si Jacob sa Egipto
46 Umalis si Jacob papuntang Egipto kasama ang sambahayan niya na dala ang lahat ng kanyang ari-arian. Pagdating niya sa Beersheba, naghandog siya sa Dios ng ama niyang si Isaac.
2 Kinagabihan, nakipag-usap ang Dios sa kanya sa pamamagitan ng isang pangitain. Tinawag ng Dios si Jacob, at sumagot si Jacob sa kanya.
3 Pagkatapos, sinabi niya, “Ako ang Dios, na siyang Dios ng iyong ama. Huwag kang matakot pumunta sa Egipto, dahil gagawin ko kayong isang kilalang bansa roon. 4 Ako mismo ang kasama mo sa pagpunta sa Egipto at muli kitang ibabalik dito sa Canaan. At kung mamamatay ka na, nandiyan si Jose sa iyong tabi.”
5 Pinasakay si Jacob ng mga anak niya sa karwaheng ibinigay ng Faraon para sakyan niya. Pinasakay din nila ang mga asawaʼt anak nila, at lumipat sila mula sa Beersheba. 6-7 Dinala nila ang mga hayop at mga ari-ariang naipon nila sa Canaan. Dinala rin ni Jacob sa Egipto ang lahat ng kanyang lahi: ang mga anak niya at mga apo.
8 Ito ang mga pangalan ng mga Israelitang pumunta sa Egipto:
Si Jacob, ang panganay niyang anak na si Reuben;
9 ang mga anak ni Reuben:
sina Hanoc, Palu, Hezron at Carmi.
10 Si Simeon at ang mga anak niya:
sina Jemuel, Jamin, Ohad, Jakin, Zohar at si Shaul na anak ng isang Cananea.
11 Si Levi at ang mga anak niya:
sina Gershon, Kohat at Merari.
12 Si Juda at ang mga anak niya:
sina Er, Onan, Shela, Perez at Zera. (Pero si Er at Onan ay namatay sa Canaan.)
Ang mga anak ni Perez:
sina Hezron at Hamul.
13 Ang mga ito ay kasama rin sa Egipto:
si Isacar at ang mga anak niyang sina Tola, Pua, Iob at Shimron.
14 Si Zebulun at ang mga anak niya:
sina Sered, Elon at Jaleel.
15 Sila ang 33 anak at apo ni Jacob kay Lea na ipinanganak sa Padan Aram, at hindi kabilang ang anak niyang babae na si Dina.
16 Ang mga ito ay kasama rin sa Egipto:
si Gad at ang mga anak niyang sina Zefon, Hagi, Shuni, Ezbon, Eri, Arodi at Areli.
17 Si Asher at ang mga anak niyang sina Imna, Ishva, Ishvi at Beria.
Ang kapatid nilang babae na si Sera.
Ang mga anak ni Beria na sina Heber at Malkiel.
18 Sila ang 16 na anak at apo ni Jacob kay Zilpa, ang alipin na ibinigay ni Laban kay Lea.
19 Ang mga anak ni Jacob kay Raquel:
sina Jose at Benjamin.
20 Ang mga anak ni Jose kay Asenat na ipinanganak sa Egipto na sina Manase at Efraim. (Si Asenat ay anak na babae ni Potifera na pari sa lungsod ng On.)
21 Ang mga anak ni Benjamin:
sina Bela, Beker, Ashbel, Gera, Naaman, Ehi, Rosh, Mupim, Hupim at Ard.
22 Sila ang 14 na anak at apo ni Jacob kay Raquel.
23 Ang mga ito ay kasama rin sa Egipto:

24 Si Naftali at ang mga anak niya:
sina Jahziel, Guni, Jezer at Shilem.
25 Sila ang pitong anak at apo ni Jacob kay Bilha, ang alipin na ibinigay ni Laban kay Raquel.
26 Ang bilang ng lahat ng anak at apo ni Jacob na pumunta sa Egipto ay 66. Hindi pa kabilang dito ang mga asawa ng kanyang mga anak. 27 Kasama ang dalawang anak ni Jose na ipinanganak sa Egipto, 70 ang kabuuan ng sambahayan ni Jacob na natipon sa Egipto.
28 Nang hindi pa sila nakakarating sa Egipto, inutusan ni Jacob si Juda na maunang pumunta kay Jose para ituro sa kanila ang lugar ng Goshen. Nang dumating na sina Jacob sa Goshen, 29 sumakay si Jose sa karwahe niya at pumunta roon sa Goshen para salubungin ang kanyang ama. Nang magkita sila, niyakap ni Jose ang kanyang ama at tuloy-tuloy ang pag-iyak niya.
30 Sinabi ni Jacob kay Jose, “Ngayon, handa na akong mamatay dahil nakita na kita ng buhay.”
31 At sinabi ni Jose sa mga kapatid niya at sa buong sambahayan ng kanyang ama, “Aalis ako at sasabihin sa Faraon na narito na ang mga kapatid ko at ang buong sambahayan ng aking ama na nakatira sa Canaan. 32 Sasabihin ko rin sa kanya na nagpapastol kayo ng mga hayop, at dinala ninyo ang mga hayop ninyo at ang lahat ng ari-arian ninyo. 33 Kaya kapag ipinatawag niya kayo at itinanong kung ano ang trabaho ninyo, 34 sabihin nʼyo na nagpapastol kayo ng mga hayop mula pagkabata katulad ng mga magulang ninyo, para patirahin niya kayo sa Goshen. Sapagkat nasusuklam ang mga Egipcio sa mga nagpapastol ng hayop.”

Joseph Brings His Family to Egypt
46 So Israel took his journey with all that he had and came to (A)Beersheba, and offered sacrifices (B)to the God of his father Isaac. 2 And God spoke to Israel (C)in visions of the night and said, “Jacob, Jacob.” And he said, “Here I am.” 3 Then he said, “I am God, (D)the God of your father. Do not be afraid to go down to Egypt, for there I will (E)make you into a great nation. 4 I myself will go down with you to Egypt, and I will also (F)bring you up again, and (G)Joseph's hand shall close your eyes.”
5 Then Jacob set out from Beersheba. The sons of Israel carried Jacob their father, their little ones, and their wives, in the wagons (H)that Pharaoh had sent to carry him. 6 They also took their livestock and their goods, which they had gained in the land of Canaan, and (I)came into Egypt, Jacob and all his offspring with him, 7 his sons, and his sons' sons with him, his daughters, and his sons' daughters. All his offspring he brought with him into Egypt.
8 (J)Now (K)these are the names of the descendants of Israel, who came into Egypt, Jacob and his sons. (L)Reuben, Jacob's firstborn, 9 and the sons of Reuben: Hanoch, Pallu, Hezron, and Carmi. 10 The sons of Simeon: Jemuel, Jamin, Ohad, Jachin, Zohar, and Shaul, the son of a Canaanite woman. 11 The sons of (M)Levi: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari. 12 The sons of (N)Judah: Er, Onan, Shelah, Perez, and Zerah (but (O)Er and Onan died in the land of Canaan); and the sons of (P)Perez were Hezron and Hamul. 13 (Q)The sons of Issachar: Tola, Puvah, Yob, and Shimron. 14 The sons of Zebulun: Sered, Elon, and Jahleel. 15 These are the sons of Leah, (R)whom she bore to Jacob in Paddan-aram, together with his daughter Dinah; altogether his sons and his daughters numbered thirty-three.
16 The sons of Gad: Ziphion, Haggi, Shuni, Ezbon, Eri, Arodi, and Areli. 17 (S)The sons of Asher: Imnah, Ishvah, Ishvi, Beriah, with Serah their sister. And the sons of Beriah: Heber and Malchiel. 18 (T)These are the sons of Zilpah, (U)whom Laban gave to Leah his daughter; and these she bore to Jacob—sixteen persons.
19 The sons of Rachel, Jacob's wife: Joseph and Benjamin. 20 And (V)to Joseph in the land of Egypt were born Manasseh and Ephraim, whom Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera the priest of (W)On, bore to him. 21 And (X)the sons of Benjamin: Bela, Becher, Ashbel, Gera, Naaman, Ehi, Rosh, Muppim, Huppim, and Ard. 22 These are the sons of Rachel, who were born to Jacob—fourteen persons in all.
23 The son[a] of Dan: Hushim. 24 (Y)The sons of Naphtali: Jahzeel, Guni, Jezer, and Shillem. 25 (Z)These are the sons of Bilhah, (AA)whom Laban gave to Rachel his daughter, and these she bore to Jacob—seven persons in all.
26 All the persons belonging to Jacob who came into Egypt, who were his own descendants, not including Jacob's sons' wives, were sixty-six persons in all. 27 And the sons of Joseph, who were born to him in Egypt, were two. (AB)All the persons of the house of Jacob who came into Egypt were seventy.
Jacob and Joseph Reunited
28 He had sent Judah ahead of him to Joseph to show the way before him in Goshen, and they came (AC)into the land of Goshen. 29 Then Joseph prepared his chariot and went up to meet Israel his father in Goshen. He presented himself to him and (AD)fell on his neck and wept on his neck a good while. 30 Israel said to Joseph, (AE)“Now let me die, since I have seen your face and know that you are still alive.” 31 Joseph said to his brothers and to his father's household, (AF)“I will go up and tell Pharaoh and will say to him, ‘My brothers and my father's household, who were in the land of Canaan, have come to me. 32 (AG)And the men are shepherds, for they have been keepers of livestock, and they have brought their flocks and their herds and all that they have.’ 33 When Pharaoh calls you and says, (AH)‘What is your occupation?’ 34 you shall say, (AI)‘Your servants have been keepers of livestock (AJ)from our youth even until now, both we and our fathers,’ in order that you may dwell (AK)in the land of Goshen, for every shepherd is (AL)an abomination to the Egyptians.”
