Genesis 46:32-34

New American Standard Bible

³² and the men are shepherds, for they have been ^[a]keepers of livestock; and they have brought their flocks and their herds and all that they have.’ ³³ When Pharaoh calls for you and says, ‘^(A)What is your occupation?’ ³⁴ you shall say, ‘Your servants have been ^[b](B)keepers of livestock since our youth even until now, both we and our fathers,’ so that you may live in the land of ^(C)Goshen; for every shepherd is an ^(D)abomination to the Egyptians.”
