1 以色列带着他所有的一切起程， 到了别是巴， 就向他父亲以撒的 神献祭。 2 神在夜间的异象中对以色列说： "雅各， 雅各。"雅各说： "我在这里。" 3 神说： "我是 神， 就是你父亲的 神； 你不要怕下埃及去， 因为我必使你在那里成为大国。 4 我要亲自与你一同下到埃及去， 也必把你带上来。约瑟要亲手合上你的眼给你送终。" 5 雅各就从别是巴起程。以色列的众子， 用法老为雅各送来的车辆， 接载他们的父亲雅各， 以及他们的孩子和妻子。 6 他们又带着牲畜， 和他们在迦南地所得的财物， 来到埃及。这样， 雅各和他所有的子孙， 都一同来了。 7 雅各把他的众儿子、孙子、女儿、孙女和他所有的后裔， 都一同带到埃及去了。 8 来到埃及的以色列人， 就是雅各和他的子孙， 名单记在下面： 雅各的长子是流本。 9 流本的儿子是哈诺、法路、希斯仑和迦米。 10 西缅的儿子是耶母利、雅悯、阿辖、雅斤、琐辖和迦南女子所生的扫罗。 11 利未的儿子是革顺、哥辖和米拉利。 12 犹大的儿子是珥、俄南、示拉、法勒斯和谢拉， 但是珥和俄南都在迦南地死了。法勒斯的儿子是希斯伦和哈母勒。 13 以萨迦的儿子是陀拉、普瓦、哟伯和伸仑。 14 西布伦的儿子是西烈、以伦和雅利。 15 以上这些人是利亚在巴旦．亚兰给雅各生的儿子， 另外还有女儿底拿。这些子孙一共三十三人。 16 迦得的儿子是洗非芸、哈基、书尼、以斯本、以利、亚罗底和亚列利。 17 亚设的儿子是音拿、亦施瓦、亦施韦和比利亚， 还有他们的姊妹西拉。比利亚的儿子是希别和玛结。 18 以上这些人是拉班给女儿利亚作婢女的悉帕给雅各生的子孙， 一共十六人。 19 雅各的妻子拉结， 生了约瑟和便雅悯。 20 约瑟在埃及地生了玛拿西和以法莲， 就是安城的祭司波提非拉的女儿亚西纳给约瑟生的。 21 便雅悯的儿子是比拉、比结、亚实别、基拉、乃幔、以希、罗实、母平、户平和亚勒。 22 以上这些人是拉结给雅各生的子孙， 一共十四人。 23 但的儿子是户伸。 24 拿弗他利的儿子是雅薛、沽尼、耶色和示冷。 25 以上这些人是拉班给女儿拉结作婢女的辟拉给雅各生的子孙， 一共七人。 26 所有从雅各所生、与雅各一同来到埃及的人， 除了他的儿妇之外， 一共六十六人。 27 另外还有约瑟在埃及所生的两个儿子。雅各家来到埃及的所有成员， 一共七十人。 28 雅各派犹大先到约瑟那里去， 请约瑟指教他去歌珊的路。于是他们来到歌珊地。 29 约瑟预备了车， 上去歌珊迎接他的父亲以色列。约瑟一看见他， 就伏在他的颈项上， 在他的颈项上哭了很久。 30 以色列对约瑟说： "这一次我看见了你的面， 知道你还在， 我死了也甘心。" 31 约瑟对他的兄弟们和他的父家说： "我要上去告诉法老， 对他说： ‘我在迦南地的兄弟们和我的父家， 都到我这里来了。 32 这些人都是牧羊人， 以牧养牲畜为生。他们把自己的牛羊和一切所有的， 都带来了。’ 33 法老召见你们的时候， 如果问你们： ‘你们是作什么的？’ 34 你们就要回答： ‘仆人们从幼年直到现在， 都是以牧养牲畜为生。我们和我们的祖先都是一样。’这样， 你们就可以住在歌珊地， 因为埃及人厌恶所有牧羊的人。"
