Consider again how you translated “flocks and herds” in the book of Genesis. See [12:16](../12/16.md); [13:5](../13/05.md); [20:14](../20/14.md); [21:27](../21/27.md); [24:35](../24/35.md); [26:14](../26/14.md); [32:8](../32/08.md); [33:13](../33/13.md); [34:28](../34/28.md); [45:10](../45/10.md); [46:32](../46/32.md); [47:1](../47/01.md), [17](../47/17.md); [50:8](../50/08.md). Also see how you translated herd in Genesis [18:7–8](../18/07.md), and how you translated flock in Genesis [4:2](../04/02.md), 4; [21:28](../21/28.md); [27:9](../27/09.md); [29:2–3](../29/02.md), [6–10](../29/06.md); [30:31](../30/31.md), [32](../30/32.md), [36](../30/36.md), [38–43](../30/38.md); [31:4](../31/04.md), 8, [10](../31/10.md), [12](../31/12.md), [19](../31/19.md), [38](../31/38.md), [41](../31/41.md), [43](../31/43.md); [32:6](../32/06.md); [37:2](../37/02.md), [12](../37/12.md), [14](../37/14.md); [38:12](../38/12.md), [13](../38/13.md), [17](../38/17.md); [46:34](../46/34.md); [47:1](../47/01.md), [17](../47/17.md). It may be necessary to translate these terms in different ways, depending on the context. Alternate translation: [and their sheep and cattle]

left

The children and animals were probably left with servants who took care of them during the funeral. For some languages it may be better to change the order of the phrases in this sentence and say, “They left behind only their children and their livestock in Goshen Province.” Alternate translation: [they left behind] or [were left behind with servants]

Consider again how you translated “the land/region of Goshen” in the book of Genesis. See [45:10](../45/10.md); [46:28–29](../46/28.md), [34](../46/34.md); [47:1](../47/01.md), 4, 6, [27](../47/27.md); [50:8](../50/08.md). Alternate translation: [in the region of Goshen]
