GOD’S WORD Translation (GW)
Version
Genesis 46:2-5

God spoke to Israel in a vision that night and said, “Jacob, Jacob!”

“Here I am,” he answered.

“I am God, the God of your father,” he said. “Don’t be afraid to go to Egypt, because I will make you a great nation there. I will go with you to Egypt, and I will make sure you come back again. Joseph will close your eyes ⌞when you die⌟.”

So Jacob left Beersheba. Israel’s sons put their father Jacob, their children, and their wives in the wagons Pharaoh had sent to bring him back.
