Genesis 37:1-4

1And JacobH3290 dweltH3427 in the landH776 of his father’sH1 sojourningsH4033, in the landH776 of CanaanH3667. 2These are the generationsH8435 of JacobH3290. JosephH3130, being seventeen yearsH8141 old, wasH1961 feeding the flockH6629 with his brethren; and he wasH1961 a ladH5288 with the sonsH1121 of BilhahH1090, and with the sonsH1121 of ZilpahH2153, his father’sH1 wivesH802: and JosephH3130 broughtH935 the evilH7451 reportH1681 of them unto their fatherH1. 3Now IsraelH3478 lovedH157 JosephH3130 more than all his children, because he was the sonH1121 of his old age: and he madeH6213 him a coat of many colors. 4And his brethren sawH7200 that their fatherH1 lovedH157 him more than all his brethren; and they hatedH8130 him, and could not speakH1696 peaceably unto him.
