   28: And he sent Judah before him unto Joseph, to show the way before him unto Goshen; and they came into the land of Goshen.
   29: And Joseph made ready his chariot, and went up to meet Israel his father, to Goshen; and he presented himself unto him, and fell on his neck, and wept on his neck a good while.
   30: And Israel said unto Joseph, Now let me die, since I have seen thy face, that thou art yet alive.
   31: And Joseph said unto his brethren, and unto his father's house, I will go up, and tell Pharaoh, and will say unto him, My brethren, and my father's house, who were in the land of Canaan, are come unto me;
   32: and the men are shepherds, for they have been keepers of cattle; and they have brought their flocks, and their herds, and all that they have.
   33: And it shall come to pass, when Pharaoh shall call you, and shall say, What is your occupation?
   34: that ye shall say, Thy servants have been keepers of cattle from our youth even until now, both we, and our fathers: that ye may dwell in the land of Goshen; for every shepherd is an abomination unto the Egyptians.
