Genesis 46:31-34

31Then Joseph spoke to his brothers and to his father's people. He said, ‘I will go and say to Pharaoh, “My brothers and all my father's people have arrived here from Canaan.

32The men are shepherds. They take care of their animals. They have brought with them their sheep, goats and cows, and everything that they have.”

33Pharaoh will call you to meet him. He will ask you, “What is your job?”

34Then you should answer, “We have always taken care of cows and sheep since we were young men. Our ancestors have always done this work.” Egyptians do not want to live near people who take care of sheep. So Pharaoh will let you stay in the region called Goshen.’
