Genesis 46:32-34
1599 Geneva Bible
32 And the men are [a]sheepherders, and because they are sheepherders, they have brought their sheep and their cattle, and all that they have.
33 And if Pharaoh call you, and ask you, What is your trade?
34 That ye shall say, Thy servants are men occupied about cattle, from our childhood even unto this time, both we and our fathers: that ye may dwell in the land of Goshen: for every sheep keeper is an [b]abomination unto the Egyptians.
