And they came to the land of Goshen.H7971H3063H6440H3130H3384H6440H1657H935H776H1657 29So Joseph made ready his chariot and went up to Goshen to meet his father Israel; and he presented himself to him, and fell on his neck and wept on his neck a good while.H3130H631H4818H5927H7125H3478H1H1657H7200H5307H6677H1058H6677H5750 30And Israel said to Joseph, "Now let me die, since I have seen your face, because you are still alive."H3478H559H3130H6471H4191H310H7200H6440H5750H2416 31Then Joseph said to his brothers and to his father's household, "I will go up and tell Pharaoh, and say to him, 'My brothers and those of my father's house, who were in the land of Canaan, have come to me.H3130H559H251H1H1004H5927H5046H6547H559H251H1H1004H776H3667H935 32'And the men are shepherds, for their occupation has been to feed livestock; and they have brought their flocks, their herds, and all that they have.'H582H7462H6629H4735H935H6629H1241 33"So it shall be, when Pharaoh calls you and says, 'What is your occupation?'H6547H7121H559H4639 34"that you shall say, 'Your servants' occupation has been with livestock from our youth even till now, both we and also our fathers,' that you may dwell in the land of Goshen; for every shepherd is an abomination to the Egyptians."H559H5650H582H4735H5271H1H3427H776H1657H7462H6629H8441H4714
