Do not be afraid to go down to Egypt, for there I will emake you into a great nation. 4I myself will go down with you to Egypt, and I will also fbring you up again, and gJoseph’s hand shall close your eyes.” 5Then Jacob set out from Beersheba.

He presented himself to him and aefell on his neck and wept on his neck a good while. 30Israel said to Joseph, af“Now let me die, since I have seen your face and know that you are still alive.” 31Joseph said to his brothers and to his father’s household, ag“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 ahAnd 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.’ 33When Pharaoh calls you and says, ai‘What is your occupation?’ 34you shall say, aj‘Your servants have been keepers of livestock akfrom our youth even until now, both we and our fathers,’ in order that you may dwell alin the land of Goshen, for every shepherd is aman abomination to the Egyptians.”
