Genesis 46:34

28 Now he had sent Judah before him to Goshen, to get word from Joseph; and so they came to the land of Goshen.

29 And Joseph got his carriage ready and went to Goshen for the meeting with his father; and when he came before him, he put his arms round his neck, weeping.

30 And Israel said to Joseph, Now that I have seen you living again, I am ready for death.

31 And Joseph said to his brothers and to his father's people, I will go and give the news to Pharaoh, and say to him, My brothers and my father's people, from the land of Canaan, have come to me;

32 And these men are keepers of sheep and owners of cattle, and have with them their flocks and their herds and all they have.

33 Now when Pharaoh sends for you and says, What is your business?

34 You are to say, Your servants have been keepers of cattle from our early days up to now, like our fathers; in this way you will be able to have the land of Goshen for yourselves; because keepers of sheep are unclean in the eyes of the Egyptians.
