Genesis 46:33

Jacob Arrives in Egypt

32The men are shepherds; they raise livestock, and they have brought their flocks and herds and all that they own.’33When Pharaoh summons you and asks, ‘What is your occupation?’34you 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.”
