Senesi 46

1So Israel took his journey with all that he had and came to Beersheba, and offered sacrifices to the God of his father Isaac.

1PEA fononga 'a 'Isileli mo e me'a kotoa pē na'a ne ma'u, pea ha'u ia ki Peasipa, pea ne 'atu 'i ai 'ae ngaahi feilaulau ki he 'Otua 'o 'ene tamai ko 'Aisake.

2And God spoke to Israel in visions of the night and said, “Jacob, Jacob.” And he said, “Here am I.”

2Pea na'e folofola 'ae 'Otua kia 'Isileli 'i he ngaahi me'a hā mai 'oe pō, 'o ne pehē, “Sēkope, Sēkope;” pea pehē 'e ia, “Ko au eni.”

3Then he said, “I am God, the God of your father. Do not be afraid to go down to Egypt, for there I will make you into a great nation.

3Pea pehē 'e ia, “Ko e 'Otua au, ko e 'Otua 'o ho'o tamai: 'Oua na'a ke manavahē ke 'alu hifo ki 'Isipite, he te u ngaohi 'aki koe 'i ai 'ae pule'anga lahi.

4I myself will go down with you to Egypt, and I will also bring you up again, and Joseph’s hand shall close your eyes.”

4Pea te u 'alu mo koe ki 'Isipite; pea ko e mo'oni te u toe 'omi koe mei ai; pea 'e 'ai 'e Siosefa hono nima ki ho mata.”

5Then Jacob set out from Beersheba. The sons of Israel carried Jacob their father, their little ones, and their wives, in the wagons that Pharaoh had sent to carry him.

5Pea na'e tu'u hake 'a Sēkope mei Peasipa: pea ko e ngaahi foha 'o 'Isileli na'a nau 'omi 'a 'enau tamai ko Sēkope, mo 'enau fānau, mo honau ngaahi 'unoho 'i he ngaahi saliote na'e fekau 'e Felo ke fetuku 'aki 'akinautolu.

6They also took their livestock and their goods, which they had gained in the land of Canaan, and came into Egypt, Jacob and all his offspring with him,

6Pea na'a nau 'ave 'enau fanga manu mo 'enau koloa, na'a nau ma'u 'i he fonua ko Kēnani, 'o nau ha'u ki 'Isipite, 'a Sēkope, mo hono hako kotoa pē mo ia:

28He had sent Judah ahead of him to Joseph to show the way before him in Goshen, and they came into the land of Goshen.

30Israel said to Joseph, “Now let me die, since I have seen your face and know that you are still alive.”

30Pea pehē 'e 'Isileli kia Siosefa, “Ko eni tuku ke u mate, he koe'uhi kuo u mamata ki ho mata, pea 'oku ke kei mo'ui.”

31Joseph said to his brothers and to his father’s household, “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.

32And 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.’
