1 And Yisra’ĕl took his journey from Ḥaran from his house on the new moon of the third month, and he went on the way of Be’ĕrsheḇa, and he offered an offering to the Elohim of his father Yitsḥaq on the seventh of this month.
2 And Ya’aqoḇ remembered the dream that he had seen at Bĕyth Ĕl, and he feared to go down into Mitsrayim.
3 And while he was thinking of sending word to Yosĕph to come to him, and that he would not go down, he remained there seven days, if it came to be he should see a vision as to whether he should remain or go down.
4 And he celebrated the harvest Festival of the First-Fruits with old grain, for in all the land of Kena’an there was not a handful of seed, for scarcity of food was over all the beasts and cattle and birds, and also over man.
5 And on the sixteenth 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 appeared to him, and said to him, “Ya’aqoḇ, Ya’aqoḇ.” And he said, “Here I am.” And He said to him, “I am the Elohim of your fathers, the Elohim of Aḇraham and Yitsḥaq. Do not fear to go down into Mitsrayim, for there I shall make you a great nation.
6 “I shall go down with you, and I shall bring you up, and in this land you shall be buried, and Yosĕph shall put his hands upon your eyes. Do not fear; go down into Mitsrayim.”
7 And his sons rose up, and his sons’ sons, and they placed their father and their possessions upon wagons.
8 And Yisra’ĕl rose up from Be’ĕrsheḇa on the sixteenth of this third month, and he went to the land of Mitsrayim.
9 And Yisra’ĕl sent Yahuḏah before him to his son Yosĕph to search out the Land of Goshen, for Yosĕph had told his brothers that they should come and dwell there that they might be near him.
10 And this was the choicest in the land of Mitsrayim, and near to him, for all and also for the cattle.
