And he
said unto them: see that ye fall not out by the way. And they
departed from Egypt and came into the land of Canaan unto Iacob
their father, and told him saying. Ioseph is yet alive and is
governor over all the land of Egypt. And Iacob's heart wavered,
for he believed them not. And they told him all the words of
Ioseph which he had said unto them. But when he saw the chariots
which Ioseph had sent to carry him, then his spirits revived. And
Israel said: I have enough, if Ioseph my son be yet alive: I will
go and see him, yer that I die.
Chapter .xlvi.
Israel took his journey with all that he had, and came unto
Berseba and offered offerings unto the God of his father Isaac.
And God said unto Israel in a vision by night, and called unto
him: Iacob, Iacob. And he answered: here am I. And he said: I am
that mighty God of thy father, fear not to go down into Egypt. For
I will make of thee there a great people. I will go down with thee
into Egypt, and I will also bring thee up again, and Ioseph shall
put his hand upon thine eyes. And Iacob rose up from Berseba. And
the sons of Israel carried Iacob their father, and their children
and their wives in the chariots which Pharao had sent to carry
him.
