2. That night God spoke to Israel in a vision: “Jacob, Jacob! ” He said.And Jacob replied, “Here I am.”

3. God said, “I am God, the God of your father. Do not be afraid to go down to Egypt, for I will make you into a great nation there.

4. I will go down with you to Egypt, and I will also bring you back. Joseph will put his hands on your eyes.”

5. Jacob left Beer-sheba. The sons of Israel took their father Jacob in the wagons Pharaoh had sent to carry him, along with their children and their wives.
