וַיְכַל יַֽעֲקֹב לְצַוֹּת אֶת-בָּנָיו וַיֶּֽאֱסֹף רַגְלָיו אֶל-הַמִּטָּה וַיִּגְוַע וַיֵּאָסֶף אֶל-עַמָּֽיו׃
And when Jacob had made an end of commanding his sons, he gathered up his feet into the bed, and yielded up the ghost, and was gathered unto his people.
וַיָּמָת יוֹסֵף וְכָל-אֶחָיו וְכֹל הַדּוֹר הַהֽוּא׃
And Joseph died, and all his brethren, and all that generation.
וַיֹּאמֶר אָֽנֹכִי הָאֵל אֱלֹהֵי אָבִיךָ אַל-תִּירָא מֵֽרְדָה מִצְרַיְמָה כִּֽי-לְגוֹי גָּדוֹל אֲשִֽׂימְךָ שָֽׁם׃
And he said, I am God, the God of thy father: fear not to go down into Egypt; for I will there make of thee a great nation:
וָֽאֶתֵּן לְיִצְחָק אֶֽת-יַעֲקֹב וְאֶת-עֵשָׂו וָֽאֶתֵּן לְעֵשָׂו אֶת-הַר שֵׂעִיר לָרֶשֶׁת אוֹתוֹ וְיַֽעֲקֹב וּבָנָיו יָֽרְדוּ מִצְרָֽיִם׃
And I gave unto Isaac Jacob and Esau: and I gave unto Esau mount Seir, to possess it; but Jacob and his children went down into Egypt.
וְעָנִיתָ וְאָֽמַרְתָּ לִפְנֵי׀ יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ אֲרַמִּי אֹבֵד אָבִי וַיֵּרֶד מִצְרַיְמָה וַיָּגָר שָׁם בִּמְתֵי מְעָט וַֽיְהִי-שָׁם לְגוֹי גָּדוֹל עָצוּם וָרָֽב׃
And thou shalt speak and say before the LORD thy God, A Syrian ready to perish was my father, and he went down into Egypt, and sojourned there with a few, and became there a nation, great, mighty, and populous:
וַיֵּֽרְדוּ אֲבֹתֵינוּ מִצְרַיְמָה וַנֵּשֶׁב בְּמִצְרַיִם יָמִים רַבִּים וַיָּרֵעוּ לָנוּ מִצְרַיִם וְלַֽאֲבֹתֵֽינוּ׃
How our fathers went down into Egypt, and we have dwelt in Egypt a long time; and the Egyptians vexed us, and our fathers:
Πίστει Ἰακὼβ ἀποθνῄσκων ἕκαστον τῶν υἱῶν Ἰωσὴφ εὐλόγησεν καὶ προσεκύνησεν ἐπὶ τὸ ἄκρον τῆς ῥάβδου αὐτοῦ
By faith Jacob, when he was a dying, blessed both the sons of Joseph; and worshipped, leaning upon the top of his staff.
בְּשִׁבְעִים נֶפֶשׁ יָֽרְדוּ אֲבֹתֶיךָ מִצְרָיְמָה וְעַתָּה שָֽׂמְךָ יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ כְּכֽוֹכְבֵי הַשָּׁמַיִם לָרֹֽב׃
Thy fathers went down into Egypt with threescore and ten persons; and now the LORD thy God hath made thee as the stars of heaven for multitude.
