Genesis 46
Christian Standard Bible
Jacob Leaves for Egypt
46 Israel set out with all that he had and came to Beer-sheba,(A) and he offered sacrifices to the God of his father Isaac. 2 That night God spoke to Israel in a vision:(B) “Jacob, Jacob!” he said.
And Jacob replied, “Here I am.”
3 God said, “I am God, the God of your father. Do not be afraid to go down to Egypt, for I will make you into a great nation there.(C) 4 I will go down with you to Egypt, and I will also bring you back.(D) Joseph will close your eyes when you die.”[a](E)
5 Jacob left Beer-sheba. The sons of Israel took their father Jacob in the wagons Pharaoh had sent to carry him,(F) along with their dependents and their wives. 6 They also took their cattle and possessions they had acquired in the land of Canaan. Then Jacob and all his offspring with him came to Egypt.(G) 7 His sons and grandsons, his daughters and granddaughters, indeed all his offspring, he brought with him to Egypt.

Jacob Arrives in Egypt
28 Now Jacob had sent Judah ahead of him to Joseph to prepare for his arrival[i] at Goshen.(S) When they came to the land of Goshen, 29 Joseph hitched the horses to his chariot and went up to Goshen to meet his father Israel. Joseph presented himself to him, threw his arms around him, and wept for a long time.(T)
30 Then Israel said to Joseph, “I’m ready to die now because I have seen your face and you are still alive!”
31 Joseph said to his brothers and to his father’s family, “I will go up and inform Pharaoh, telling him, ‘My brothers and my father’s family, who were in the land of Canaan, have come to me.(U) 32 The men are shepherds; they also raise livestock. They have brought their flocks and herds and all that they have.’ 33 When Pharaoh addresses you and asks, ‘What is your occupation?’ 34 you are to say, ‘Your servants, both we and our ancestors, have raised livestock[j] from our youth until now.’ Then you will be allowed to settle in the land of Goshen, since all shepherds are detestable to Egyptians.”(V)

雅各下埃及
46 以色列带着他所有的一切起程，到了别是巴，就向他父亲以撒的 神献祭。 2 神在夜间的异象中对以色列说：“雅各，雅各。”雅各说：“我在这里。” 3 神说：“我是 神，就是你父亲的 神；你不要怕下埃及去，因为我必使你在那里成为大国。 4 我要亲自与你一同下到埃及去，也必把你带上来。约瑟要亲手合上你的眼给你送终。” 5 雅各就从别是巴起程。以色列的众子，用法老为雅各送来的车辆，接载他们的父亲雅各，以及他们的孩子和妻子。 6 他们又带着牲畜，和他们在迦南地所得的财物，来到埃及。这样，雅各和他所有的子孙，都一同来了。 7 雅各把他的众儿子、孙子、女儿、孙女和他所有的后裔，都一同带到埃及去了。
雅各的子孙
8 来到埃及的以色列人，就是雅各和他的子孙，名单记在下面：雅各的长子是流本。 9 流本的儿子是哈诺、法路、希斯仑和迦米。 10 西缅的儿子是耶母利、雅悯、阿辖、雅斤、琐辖和迦南女子所生的扫罗。 11 利未的儿子是革顺、哥辖和米拉利。 12 犹大的儿子是珥、俄南、示拉、法勒斯和谢拉，但是珥和俄南都在迦南地死了。法勒斯的儿子是希斯伦和哈母勒。 13 以萨迦的儿子是陀拉、普瓦、雅述（按照《按照马拉文本》，“雅述”作“哟伯”；现参照《撒玛利亚五经》和《七十士译本》翻译；参民26:24及代上7:1）和伸仑。 14 西布伦的儿子是西烈、以伦和雅利。 15 以上这些人是利亚在巴旦．亚兰给雅各生的儿子，另外还有女儿底拿。这些子孙一共三十三人。 16 迦得的儿子是洗非芸、哈基、书尼、以斯本、以利、亚罗底和亚列利。 17 亚设的儿子是音拿、亦施瓦、亦施韦和比利亚，还有他们的姊妹西拉。比利亚的儿子是希别和玛结。 18 以上这些人是拉班给女儿利亚作婢女的悉帕给雅各生的子孙，一共十六人。 19 雅各的妻子拉结，生了约瑟和便雅悯。 20 约瑟在埃及地生了玛拿西和以法莲，就是安城的祭司波提非拉的女儿亚西纳给约瑟生的。 21 便雅悯的儿子是比拉、比结、亚实别、基拉、乃幔、以希、罗实、母平、户平和亚勒。 22 以上这些人是拉结给雅各生的子孙，一共十四人。 23 但的儿子是户伸。 24 拿弗他利的儿子是雅薛、沽尼、耶色和示冷。 25 以上这些人是拉班给女儿拉结作婢女的辟拉给雅各生的子孙，一共七人。 26 所有从雅各所生、与雅各一同来到埃及的人，除了他的儿妇之外，一共六十六人。 27 另外还有约瑟在埃及所生的两个儿子。雅各家来到埃及的所有成员，一共七十人。
约瑟到歌珊迎接父亲
28 雅各派犹大先到约瑟那里去，请约瑟指教他去歌珊的路。于是他们来到歌珊地。 29 约瑟预备了车，上去歌珊迎接他的父亲以色列。约瑟一看见他，就伏在他的颈项上，在他的颈项上哭了很久。 30 以色列对约瑟说：“这一次我看见了你的面，知道你还在，我死了也甘心。” 31 约瑟对他的兄弟们和他的父家说：“我要上去告诉法老，对他说：‘我在迦南地的兄弟们和我的父家，都到我这里来了。 32 这些人都是牧羊人，以牧养牲畜为生。他们把自己的牛羊和一切所有的，都带来了。’ 33 法老召见你们的时候，如果问你们：‘你们是作甚么的？’ 34 你们就要回答：‘仆人们从幼年直到现在，都是以牧养牲畜为生。我们和我们的祖先都是一样。’这样，你们就可以住在歌珊地，因为埃及人厌恶所有牧羊的人。”
