Jacob and Joseph Reunited

Genesis 46

²⁸ He had sent Judah ahead of him to Joseph to show the way before him in Goshen, and they came _i into the land of Goshen. ²⁹ Then Joseph prepared his chariot and went up to meet Israel his father in Goshen. He presented himself to him and _j fell on his neck and wept on his neck a good while. ³⁰ Israel said to Joseph, _k "Now let me die, since I have seen your face and know that you are still alive." ³¹ Joseph said to his brothers and to his father's household, _l "I will go up and tell Pharaoh and will say to him, 'My brothers and my father's household, who were in the land of Canaan, have come to me. ³² _m And the men are shepherds, for they have been keepers of livestock, and they have brought their flocks and their herds and all that they have.' ³³ When Pharaoh calls you and says, _m 'What is your occupation?' ³⁴ you shall say, _m 'Your servants have been keepers of livestock _n from our youth even until now, both we and our fathers,' in order that you may dwell _o in the land of Goshen, for every shepherd is _p an abomination to the Egyptians."
