46:2  He heard him, by a vision in the night, calling him, and saying to him: Jacob, Jacob. And he answered him: Lo, here I am.

46:3  God said to him: I am the most mighty God of thy father; fear not, go down into Egypt, for I will make a great nation of thee there.

46:4  I will go down with thee thither, and will bring thee back again from thence: Joseph also shall put his hands upon thy eyes.

46:28  And he sent Juda before him to Joseph, to tell him; and that he should meet him in Gessen.

46:29  And when he was come thither, Joseph made ready his chariot, and went up to meet his father in the same place: and seeing him, he fell upon his neck, and embracing him, wept.

46:30  And the father said to Joseph: Now shall I die with joy, because I have seen thy face, and leave thee alive.

46:31  And Joseph said to his brethren, and to all his father's house: I will go up, and will tell Pharao, and will say to him: My brethren, and my father's house, that were in the land of Chanaan, are come to me:

46:32  And the men are shepherds, and their occupation is to feed cattle; their flocks, and herds, and all they have, they have brought with them.

46:33  And when he shall call you, and shall say: What is your occupation?

46:34  You shall answer: We, thy servants, are shepherds, from our infancy until now, both we and our fathers. And this you shall say, that you may dwell in the land of Gessen, because the Egyptians have all shepherds in abomination.
