Genesis 37:3-23

3And IsraelH3478 lovedH157 JosephH3130 more than all his sonsH1121, because he was sonH1121 of his old age; and he madeH6213 him a vest of many colours.

4And his brethren sawH7200 that their fatherH1 lovedH157 him more than all his brethren, and they hatedH8130 him, and could not greet him with friendliness.

5And JosephH3130 dreamedH2492 a dreamH2472, and toldH5046 [it] to his brethren, and they hatedH8130 him yetH5750 the more.

6And he saidH559 to them, HearH8085, I pray you, this dreamH2492, which I have dreamt:

7Behold, we were binding sheavesH485 in the fieldsH7704, and lo, my sheafH485 roseH6965 up, and remained standingH5324; and behold, your sheavesH485 came roundH5437 about and bowedH7812 downH7812 to my sheafH485.

8And his brethren saidH559 to him, Wilt thou indeed be a kingH4427 over us? wilt thou indeed ruleH4910 over us? And they hatedH8130 him yetH5750 the more for his dreamsH2472 and for his wordsH1697.

9And he dreamedH2492 yetH5750 another dreamH2472, and told it to his brethren, and saidH559, Behold, I have dreamt another dreamH2472, and behold, the sunH8121 and the moonH3394 and eleven starsH3556 bowedH7812 downH7812 to me.

10And he told [it] to his fatherH1 and to his brethren. And his fatherH1 rebukedH1605 him, and saidH559 to him, What is this dreamH2472 which thou hast dreamt? Shall we indeed comeH935, I and thy motherH517 and thy brethren, to bowH7812 downH7812 ourselves to thee to the earthH776?

11And his brethren envied him; but his fatherH1 keptH8104 the saying.

12And his brethren went to feedH7462 their father's flockH6629 at ShechemH7927.

13And IsraelH3478 saidH559 to JosephH3130, Do not thy brethren feedH7462 [the flock] at ShechemH7927? Come, that I may sendH7971 thee to them. And he saidH559 to him, HereH2009 am I.

14And he saidH559 to him, GoH935, I pray thee, seeH7200 after the welfareH7965 of thy brethren, and after the welfareH7965 of the flockH6629; and bringH935 me wordH1697 again. And he sentH7971 him out of the vale of HebronH2275; and he cameH935 towards ShechemH7927.

15And a manH376 foundH4672 him, and behold, he was wanderingH8582 in the countryH7704; and the manH376 askedH7592 him, sayingH559, What seekest thou?

16And he saidH559, I am seekingH1245 my brethren: tellH5046 me, I pray thee, whereH375 they feedH7462 [their flocks].

17And the manH376 saidH559, They have removed from this; for I heardH8085 them sayH559, Let us go to DothanH1886. And JosephH3130 went after his brethren, and foundH4672 them at DothanH1886.

18And when they sawH7200 him from afarH7350, and before he came near to them, they conspired against him to putH4191 him to deathH4191.

19And they saidH559 oneH376 to another, Behold, there comesH935 that dreamer!

20And nowH6258 come and let us killH2026 him, and castH7993 him into oneH259 of the pitsH953, and we will sayH559, An evilH7451 beast has devouredH398 him; and we will seeH7200 what becomesH1961 of his dreamsH2472.

21And ReubenH7205 heardH8085 [it], and deliveredH5337 him out of their handH3027, and saidH559, Let us not take his lifeH5315.

22And ReubenH7205 saidH559 to them, ShedH8210 no bloodH1818: castH7993 him into this pitH953 which is in the wildernessH4057; but lay no handH3027 upon him — in order that he might deliverH5337 him out of their handH3027, to bringH7725 him to his fatherH1 again.

23And it cameH935 to pass when JosephH3130 cameH935 to his brethren, that they strippedH6584 JosephH3130 of his vest, the vest of many colours, which he had on;
