Israel

and Isaac expireth, and dieth, and is gathered unto his people, aged and satisfied with days; and bury him do Esau and Jacob his sons.

And Esau taketh his wives, and his sons, and his daughters, and all the persons of his house, and his cattle, and all his beasts, and all his substance which he hath acquired in the land of Canaan, and goeth into the country from the face of Jacob his brother;

And these are the kings who have reigned in the land of Edom before the reigning of a king over the sons of Israel.

And Jacob dwelleth in the land of his father's sojournings--in the land of Canaan.

These are births of Jacob: Joseph, a son of seventeen years, hath been enjoying himself with his brethren among the flock, (and he is a youth,) with the sons of Bilhah, and with the sons of Zilpah, his father's wives, and Joseph bringeth in an account of their evil unto their father.

And Israel hath loved Joseph more than any of his sons, for he is a son of his old age, and hath made for him a long coat;

and Israel saith unto Joseph, `Are not thy brethren feeding in Shechem? come, and I send thee unto them;' and he saith to him, `Here am I;'

And Jacob rendeth his raiment, and putteth sackcloth on his loins, and becometh a mourner for his son many days,

And Jacob seeth that there is corn in Egypt, and Jacob saith to his sons, `Why do you look at each other?'

and Benjamin, Joseph's brother, Jacob hath not sent with his brethren, for he said, `Lest mischief meet him.'

And the sons of Israel come to buy in the midst of those coming, for the famine hath been in the land of Canaan,

And they come in unto Jacob their father, to the land of Canaan, and they declare to him all the things meeting them, saying,

and Jacob their father saith unto them, `Me ye have bereaved; Joseph is not, and Simeon is not, and Benjamin ye take--against me have been all these.'

And Israel saith, `Why did ye evil to me, by declaring to the man that ye had yet a brother?'

And Judah saith unto Israel his father, `Send the youth with me, and we arise, and go, and live, and do not die, both we, and thou, and our infants.

And Israel their father saith unto them, `If so, now, this do: take of the praised thing of the land in your vessels, and take down to the man a present, a little balm, and a little honey, spices and myrrh, nuts and almonds;

And the sons of Israel do so, and Joseph giveth waggons to them by the command of Pharaoh, and he giveth to them provision for the way;

And they go up out of Egypt, and come in to the land of Canaan, unto Jacob their father,

and they declare to him, saying, `Joseph is yet alive,' and that he is ruler over all the land of Egypt; and his heart ceaseth, for he hath not given credence to them.

And they speak unto him all the words of Joseph, which he hath spoken unto them, and he seeth the waggons which Joseph hath sent to bear him away, and live doth the spirit of Jacob their father;

and Israel saith, `Enough! Joseph my son is yet alive; I go and see him before I die.'

And Israel journeyeth, and all that he hath, and cometh in to Beer-Sheba, and sacrificeth sacrifices to the God of his father Isaac;

and God speaketh to Israel in visions of the night, and saith, `Jacob, Jacob;' and he saith, `Here am I.'

And Jacob riseth from Beer-Sheba, and the sons of Israel bear away Jacob their father, And their infants, and their wives, in the waggons which Pharaoh hath sent to bear him,

and they take their cattle, and their goods which they have acquired in the land of Canaan, and come into Egypt--Jacob, and all his seed with him,
