Gene AFV2020 46:3  And He said, "I am God, the God of your fathers. Do not fear to go down into Egypt, for I will make of you a great nation.
Gene AFV2020 46:4  I will go down with you into Egypt, and I will also surely bring you up again. And Joseph himself shall put his hand to close your eyes."

Gene AFV2020 46:28  And he sent Judah before him to Joseph to get directions to Goshen. And they came into the land of Goshen.
Gene AFV2020 46:29  And Joseph made his chariot ready, and went up to Goshen to meet Israel his father, and presented himself to him. And he fell on his neck, and wept on his neck a good while.
Gene AFV2020 46:30  And Israel said to Joseph, "Now let me die, since I have seen your face because you are still alive."
Gene AFV2020 46:31  And Joseph said to his brothers and to his father's house, "I will go up and show Pharaoh, and say to him, 'My brothers and my father's house, who were in the land of Canaan, have come to me.
Gene AFV2020 46:32  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.'
Gene AFV2020 46:33  And it shall be when Pharaoh shall call you and shall say, 'What is your occupation?'
Gene AFV2020 46:34  Then you shall answer, 'Your servants have been keepers of livestock from our youth even until now, both we and our fathers,'—so that you may live in the land of Goshen, for every shepherd is an abomination to the Egyptians."
