Gênesis 46
Nova Traduҫão na Linguagem de Hoje 2000
Jacó e a sua família vão para o Egito
46 Jacó partiu com tudo o que tinha e foi até Berseba, onde ofereceu sacrifícios ao Deus de Isaque, o seu pai. 2 Naquela noite Deus falou com ele numa visão e o chamou assim:
— Jacó, Jacó!
— Eu estou aqui — respondeu ele.
3 Deus disse:
— Eu sou Deus, o Deus do seu pai. Não tenha medo de ir para o Egito, pois ali eu farei com que os seus descendentes se tornem uma grande nação. 4 Eu irei para o Egito com você e trarei os seus descendentes de volta para esta terra. E, quando você morrer, José estará ao seu lado.
5 Então Jacó partiu de Berseba. Nas carretas que o rei do Egito havia mandado, os filhos de Jacó levaram o pai, as esposas deles e os seus filhos pequenos. 6 Jacó e todos os seus foram para o Egito, levando o seu gado e todas as coisas que haviam conseguido em Canaã. 7 Jacó levou consigo todos os seus descendentes, isto é, filhos e filhas, netos e netas.
8 Os israelitas que foram para o Egito, isto é, Jacó e os seus descendentes, são os seguintes: Rúben, o filho mais velho de Jacó, 9 e os filhos de Rúben: Enoque, Palu, Hezrom e Carmi. 10 Simeão e os seus filhos Jemuel, Jamim, Oade, Jaquim, Zoar e Saul, que era filho de uma mulher de Canaã. 11 Levi e os seus filhos Gérson, Coate e Merari. 12 Judá e os seus filhos Selá, Peres e Zera (Os outros dois filhos, Er e Onã, haviam morrido em Canaã.). Os filhos de Peres foram Hezrom e Hamul. 13 Issacar e os seus filhos Tolá, Puá, Jasube e Sinrom. 14 Zebulom e os seus filhos Serede, Elom e Jaleel. 15 Esses foram os filhos que Leia deu a Jacó na Mesopotâmia, além da sua filha Dina. Os descendentes de Jacó e Leia eram trinta e três.
16 Gade e os seus filhos Zifião, Hagui, Suni, Esbom, Eri, Arodi e Areli. 17 Aser e os seus filhos Imna, Isva, Isvi e Berias e a irmã deles, que se chamava Sera. Os filhos de Berias eram Héber e Malquiel. 18 Esses dezesseis foram os descendentes de Jacó e Zilpa, a escrava que Labão deu à sua filha Leia.
19 Raquel, mulher de Jacó, lhe tinha dado dois filhos: José e Benjamim. 20 Os filhos de José com Asenate foram Manassés e Efraim, que nasceram no Egito. Asenate era filha de Potífera, sacerdote da cidade de Heliópolis. 21 Os filhos de Benjamim foram Belá, Bequer, Asbel, Gera, Naamã, Eí, Rôs, Mupim, Hupim e Arde. 22 Esses catorze foram os descendentes de Jacó e Raquel.
23 Dã e o seu filho Husim. 24 Naftali e os seus filhos Jazeel, Guni, Jezer e Silém. 25 Esses sete foram os descendentes de Jacó e Bila, a escrava que Labão deu à sua filha Raquel.
26 Ao todo foram para o Egito sessenta e seis descendentes diretos de Jacó, sem contar as mulheres dos seus filhos. 27 Os dois filhos de José nasceram no Egito. Assim, foi de setenta o total de pessoas da família de Jacó que foram para o Egito.
A chegada ao Egito
28 Jacó mandou que Judá fosse na frente para pedir a José que viesse encontrá-los em Gosém. Quando eles chegaram, 29 José mandou aprontar o seu carro e foi para Gosém a fim de se encontrar com o pai. Quando se encontraram, José o abraçou e chorou abraçado com ele por muito tempo. 30 Então Jacó disse:
— Já posso morrer, agora que já vi você e sei que está vivo!
31 Depois José disse aos irmãos e à família do pai:
— Eu vou falar com o rei do Egito e vou lhe dar a notícia de que os meus irmãos e os parentes do meu pai, que moravam em Canaã, vieram para ficar comigo. 32 Vou dizer ao rei que vocês são criadores de ovelhas e cabras e cuidam de gado. Direi que trouxeram as suas ovelhas, o gado e tudo o que têm. 33 Quando o rei lhes perguntar qual é a profissão de vocês, 34 digam que a vida inteira vocês têm sido criadores de ovelhas, como foram os seus antepassados. Assim, vocês poderão ficar morando na região de Gosém, pois os egípcios detestam os pastores de ovelhas.

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)

18 These were the children born to Jacob by Zilpah,(AZ) whom Laban had given to his daughter Leah(BA)—sixteen in all.
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)”

New King James Version
Jacob’s Journey to Egypt(A)
46 So Israel took his journey with all that he had, and came to (B)Beersheba, and offered sacrifices (C)to the God of his father Isaac. 2 Then God spoke to Israel (D)in the visions of the night, and said, “Jacob, Jacob!”
And he said, “Here I am.”
3 So He said, “I am God, (E)the God of your father; do not fear to go down to Egypt, for I will (F)make of you a great nation there. 4 (G)I will go down with you to Egypt, and I will also surely (H)bring you up again; and (I)Joseph [a]will put his hand on your eyes.”
5 Then (J)Jacob arose from Beersheba; and the sons of Israel carried their father Jacob, their little ones, and their wives, in the [b]carts (K)which Pharaoh had sent to carry him. 6 So they took their livestock and their goods, which they had acquired in the land of Canaan, and went to Egypt, (L)Jacob and all his descendants with him. 7 His sons and his sons’ sons, his daughters and his sons’ daughters, and all his descendants he brought with him to Egypt.
8 Now (M)these were the names of the children of Israel, Jacob and his sons, who went to Egypt: (N)Reuben was Jacob’s firstborn. 9 The (O)sons of Reuben were Hanoch, Pallu, Hezron, and Carmi. 10 (P)The sons of Simeon were [c]Jemuel, Jamin, Ohad, [d]Jachin, [e]Zohar, and Shaul, the son of a Canaanite woman. 11 The sons of (Q)Levi were Gershon, Kohath, and Merari. 12 The sons of (R)Judah were (S)Er, Onan, Shelah, Perez, and Zerah (but Er and Onan died in the land of Canaan). (T)The sons of Perez were Hezron and Hamul. 13 The sons of Issachar were Tola, [f]Puvah, [g]Job, and Shimron. 14 The (U)sons of Zebulun were Sered, Elon, and Jahleel. 15 These were the (V)sons of Leah, whom she bore to Jacob in Padan Aram, with his daughter Dinah. All the persons, his sons and his daughters, were thirty-three.
16 The sons of Gad were [h]Ziphion, Haggi, Shuni, [i]Ezbon, Eri, [j]Arodi, and Areli. 17 (W)The sons of Asher were Jimnah, Ishuah, Isui, Beriah, and Serah, their sister. And the sons of Beriah were Heber and Malchiel. 18 (X)These were the sons of Zilpah, (Y)whom Laban gave to Leah his daughter; and these she bore to Jacob: sixteen persons.
19 The (Z)sons of Rachel, (AA)Jacob’s wife, were Joseph and Benjamin. 20 (AB)And to Joseph in the land of Egypt were born Manasseh and Ephraim, whom Asenath, the daughter of Poti-Pherah priest of On, bore to him. 21 (AC)The sons of Benjamin were Belah, Becher, Ashbel, Gera, Naaman, (AD)Ehi, Rosh, (AE)Muppim, [k]Huppim, and Ard. 22 These were the sons of Rachel, who were born to Jacob: fourteen persons in all.
23 The son of Dan was [l]Hushim. 24 (AF)The sons of Naphtali were [m]Jahzeel, Guni, Jezer, and [n]Shillem. 25 (AG)These were the sons of Bilhah, (AH)whom Laban gave to Rachel his daughter, and she bore these to Jacob: seven persons in all.
26 (AI)All the persons who went with Jacob to Egypt, who came from his body, (AJ)besides 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 persons. (AK)All the persons of the house of Jacob who went to Egypt were seventy.
Jacob Settles in Goshen
28 Then he sent Judah before him to Joseph, (AL)to point out before him the way to Goshen. And they came (AM)to the land of Goshen. 29 So Joseph made ready his (AN)chariot and went up to Goshen to meet his father Israel; and he presented himself to him, and (AO)fell on his neck and wept on his neck a good while.
30 And Israel said to Joseph, (AP)“Now let me die, since I have seen your face, because you are still alive.”
31 Then Joseph said to his brothers and to his father’s household, (AQ)“I will go up and tell Pharaoh, and say to him, ‘My brothers and those of my father’s house, who were in the land of Canaan, have come to me. 32 And the men are (AR)shepherds, for their occupation has been to feed livestock; and they have brought their flocks, their herds, and all that they have.’ 33 So it shall be, when Pharaoh calls you and says, (AS)‘What is your occupation?’ 34 that you shall say, ‘Your servants’ (AT)occupation has been with livestock (AU)from our youth even till now, both we and also our fathers,’ that you may dwell in the land of Goshen; for every shepherd is (AV)an[o] abomination to the Egyptians.”
