28Now he sentH7971 JudahH3063 beforeH6440 him to JosephH3130, to pointH3384 out the way beforeH6440 him to 5GoshenH1657; and they cameH935 into the landH776 of GoshenH1657. 29JosephH3130 6preparedH631 his chariotH4818 and wentH5927 up to GoshenH1657 to meetH7122 his fatherH1 IsraelH3478; as soon as he appearedH7200 7beforeH413 him, he fellH5307 on his neckH6677 and 8weptH1058 on his neckH6677 a longH5750 timeH5750. 30Then IsraelH3478 saidH559 to JosephH3130, “NowH6471 let me dieH4191, sinceH310 I have seenH7200 your faceH6440, that you are stillH5750 aliveH2416.” 31JosephH3130 saidH559 to his brothersH251 and to his father’sH1 householdH1004, “9I will goH5927 up and tellH5046 PharaohH6547, and will sayH559 to him, ‘My brothersH251 and my father’sH1 householdH1004, whoH834 were in the landH776 of CanaanH3667, have comeH935 to me; 32and the menH376 are shepherdsH7462, for they have beenH1961 10keepersH376 of livestockH4735; and they have broughtH935 their flocksH6629 and their herdsH1241 and allH3605 that they have.’ 33WhenH3588 PharaohH6547 callsH7121 you and saysH559, ‘11WhatH4100 is your occupationH4639?’ 34you shall sayH559, ‘Your servantsH5650 have beenH1961 1213keepersH376 of livestockH4735 from our youthH5271 even untilH5704 nowH6258, bothH1571 we and our fathersH1,’ that you may 14liveH3427 in the landH776 of 15GoshenH1657; for everyH3605 shepherdH7462 is 1617loathsomeH8441 to the EgyptiansH4714.”
