Genesis 46:1-7

God Assures Jacob at Beersheba

Genesis 46:1-7
1
Israel traveled with all that he had, and came to Beersheba, and offered sacrifices to the God of his father, Isaac.
2
God spoke to Israel in the visions of the night, and said, “Jacob, Jacob!” He said, “Here I am.”
3
He said, “I am God, the God of your father. Don’t be afraid to go down into Egypt, for there I will make of you a great nation.
4
I will go down with you into Egypt. I will also surely bring you up again. Joseph will close your eyes.”
5
Jacob rose up from Beersheba, and the sons of Israel carried Jacob, their father, their little ones, and their wives, in the wagons which Pharaoh had sent to carry him.
6
They took their livestock, and their goods, which they had gotten in the land of Canaan, and came into Egypt—Jacob, and all his seed with him,
7
his sons, and his sons’ sons with him, his daughters, and his sons’ daughters, and he brought all his seed with him into Egypt.
