你要在永恆主你的上帝面前應聲地說：「我的祖宗原是個飄泊流亡的亞蘭人；他下到埃及，寄居在那裏，人數稀少；在那裏竟成了一國，又大又強盛，人數又多。

你要在耶和华你神面前说：‘我祖原是一个将亡的亚兰人，下到埃及寄居。他人口稀少，在那里却成了又大又强、人数很多的国民。

你要在耶和华—你上帝面前告白说：‘我的祖先原是一个流亡的亚兰人，带着稀少的人丁下到埃及寄居。在那里，他却成了又大又强、人数众多的国。

你们要在你们的上帝耶和华面前宣告，‘我们的祖先原是到处流浪的亚兰人。他到埃及寄居时，家中人丁稀少，后来成为人口众多的强大民族。

然后你要在耶和华你的神面前说：‘我的祖先原是个飘泊流亡的亚兰人；他下到埃及，在那里寄居；他人数稀少，在那里却成了又大又强、人数又多的国。

你要在耶和華－你神面前說：『我祖原是一個將亡的亞蘭人，下到埃及寄居。他人口稀少，在那裏卻成了又大又強、人數很多的國民。

你們要在你們的上帝耶和華面前宣告，『我們的祖先原是到處流浪的亞蘭人。他到埃及寄居時，家中人丁稀少，後來成為人口眾多的強大民族。

爾在爾上帝耶和華前必曰、我祖亞蘭人、乃瀕死者、往旅埃及、人數無多、而成大族、強盛繁衍、

爾在上帝耶和華前必告曰、吾祖亞蘭人、遊牧無定、攜人無多、以往埃及於彼昌大、繁衍其族。

爾在主爾之天主前、當敬告曰、我祖亞蘭人飄流無定、飄流無定或作窘迫將亡攜人無多以往伊及、乃旅於彼、在彼成為大族、強盛蕃衍、

Then you shall declare before the Lord your God:“ My father was a wandering Aramean, and he went down into Egypt with a few people and lived there and became a great nation, powerful and numerous.

Then you will speak while the Lord is listening. You will say,“ My father Jacob was a wanderer from the land of Aram. He went down into Egypt with a few people. He lived there and became the father of a great nation. It had huge numbers of people.

“ And you shall make response before the Lord your God,‘ A wandering Aramean was my father. And he went down into Egypt and sojourned there, few in number, and there he became a nation, great, mighty, and populous.

“ You must then say in the presence of the Lord your God,‘ My ancestor Jacob was a wandering Aramean who went to live as a foreigner in Egypt. His family arrived few in number, but in Egypt they became a large and mighty nation.

You are to respond by saying in the presence of the LORD your God: My father was a wandering Aramean. He went down to Egypt with a few people and resided there as an alien. There he became a great, powerful, and populous nation.

And you shall respond and say before the Lord your God,‘ My father was a wandering Aramean, and he went down to Egypt and resided there, few in number; but there he became a great, mighty, and populous nation.

And you shall answer and say before the Lord your God:‘ My father was a Syrian, about to perish, and he went down to Egypt and dwelt there, few in number; and there he became a nation, great, mighty, and populous.

And thou shalt answer and say before Jehovah thy God, A Syrian ready to perish was my father; and he went down into Egypt, and sojourned there, few in number; and he became there a nation, great, mighty, and populous.

You are to respond by saying in the presence of the Lord your God: My father was a wandering Aramean. He went down to Egypt with a few people and lived there. There he became a great, powerful, and populous nation.

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:

Then you must affirm before the LORD YOUR GOD,“ A wandering Aramean was my ancestor, and he went down to Egypt and lived there as a foreigner with a household few in number, but there he became a great, powerful, and numerous people.

You shall answer and say before Yahweh your God,“ My father was a Syrian ready to perish. He went down into Egypt, and lived there, few in number. There he became a great, mighty, and populous nation.

但是饑荒在那地很嚴重。他們把從埃及帶來的穀子都喫完了，他們的父親就對他們說：『你們再去給我們買些糧食來。』

還有約瑟的兒子兩個人，就是他在埃及所生的。屬雅各家到埃及去的，一共七十個人。

你的祖宗下埃及、不過七十人；現在呢、永恆主你的上帝使你像天上的星那麼多了。

我要在那裏供養你，因為還有五年的饑荒，免得你和你的眷屬、以及你一切所有的都敗落。」

上帝差了我在你們以先來，是要給你們留餘種在地上，又要使你們的性命存活，來成就偉大之解救。

手裏又要加倍地帶銀子，並將退回在你們布袋口裏的銀子仍帶在手裏；那或者是錯了。

從前雅各逃到亞蘭地，以色列為要得妻而服事人，為要得妻而給人放羊。）

雅各便下埃及去，他自己和我們的祖宗都死在那裏；

永恆主傾心於你們，揀選你們，並不是因為你們比任何別族之民多（你們在萬族之民中原是最少的）；

『追求救助、尋求永恆主的啊，聽我吧！你們要瞻仰那磐石、你們所被鑿而出的；瞻仰那採石坑、你們所被挖出的。要瞻仰你們的祖先亞伯拉罕、和那生你們、的撒拉；因為亞伯拉罕獨自一人時、我呼召了他，賜福與他，使他人數增多。

凡雅各親生的人共有七十人。約瑟是已經在埃及的。

以色列人生殖，孳生眾多，極其強盛：那地滿是他們的人。

以撒娶利伯加為妻的時候、正四十歲。利伯加是巴旦亞蘭的亞蘭人彼土利的女兒，是亞蘭人拉班的妹妹。

以色列和他一切所有的就起行，來到別是巴，便獻祭給他父親以撒的上帝。在夜裏異象中，上帝對以色列說：『雅各，雅各。』雅各說：『我在這裏呢。』上帝說：『我是上帝，你父親的上帝；你不要怕下埃及去，因為我必使你在那裏成為大國。我本身要和你一同下埃及；我本身也一定要帶你上來。約瑟必按手在你眼上，使你安然長眠。』雅各就從別是巴起行，以色列的兒子們讓他們的父親雅各、和他們那些幼小的跟妻子都坐上法老所送來要載雅各的車輛。他們也帶着他們的牲畜、和他們在迦南地所積蓄的財物，來到埃及：雅各和他所有的後裔都和他一同來。雅各把兒子和孫子、女兒和孫女，以及他所有的後裔都帶到埃及去。

但是越發苦害他們，他們倒越發繁多，越發突破限量而發達；埃及人就因以色列人的緣故而鬧恐慌。

夜間，上帝到亞蘭人拉班夢中來找他，對他說：『你要小心，不可和雅各說好說歹。』

日間炎熱銷磨我，夜裏寒霜侵襲我，合眼睡覺都顧不得：這對我都是常事。

於是以色列也進了埃及，雅各就在含地寄居。永恆主使他的人民很能生殖，使他們比敵人強盛。

雅各也竊奪了亞蘭人拉班的心機：他沒告訴他就逃走了。

你可要往我本地、我親族那裏，為我兒子以撒娶妻。』

以撒打發雅各走了，雅各就往巴旦亞蘭去，到亞蘭人彼土利的兒子拉班那裏：拉班是雅各、以掃的母親利伯加的哥哥。

以掃因了他父親給雅各祝的福，就懷恨雅各，以掃心裏說：『為我父親居喪的日子近了；那時我一定要殺我兄弟雅各。』

以色列就住在埃及國，歌珊地；他們在那裏置了產業，生殖非常多。
