Genesis 46:1-7

Jacob Moves to Egypt

1 So Israel set out with all that he had, and came to aBeersheba, and offered sacrifices to the bGod of his father Isaac. 2And cGod spoke to Israel
Lit in the visions
in visions of the night and said, “ eJacob, Jacob.” And he said, “Here I am.”
3Then He said, “ fI am God, the God of your father; do not be afraid to go down to Egypt, for I will gmake you into a great nation there. 4 hI will go down with you to Egypt, and iI will also assuredly bring you up again; and jJoseph will
Lit put his hand on
close your eyes.”

5 Then Jacob left Beersheba, and the sons of Israel carried their father Jacob and their little ones and their wives in the lwagons which Pharaoh had sent to carry him. 6They also took their livestock and their possessions, which they had acquired in the land of Canaan, and mcame to Egypt, Jacob and all his
Lit seed
descendants with him:
7his sons and his grandsons with him, his daughters and his granddaughters, and all his
Lit seed
descendants he brought with him to Egypt.
