Genesis 46

³⁰ Then Israel said to Joseph, “Finally I can die, now that I have seen your face and know that you are still alive!”

³¹ Joseph said to his brothers and to his father’s household, “I will go up and inform Pharaoh: ‘My brothers and my father’s household from the land of Canaan have come to me.

³² The men are shepherds; they raise livestock, and they have brought their flocks and herds and all that they own.’

³³ When Pharaoh summons you and asks, ‘What is your occupation?’

³⁴ you are to say, ‘Your servants have raised livestock ever since our youth—both we and our fathers.’ Then you will be allowed to settle in the land of Goshen, since all shepherds are detestable to the Egyptians.”
