Genesis 37:1-4
1Now JacobH3290 livedH3427 in 1the landH776 2whereH4033 his fatherH1 had sojournedH4033, in the landH776 of CanaanH3667. 2TheseH428 are the records of the generationsH8435 of JacobH3290.
JosephH3130, when 3seventeenH7651H6240 yearsH8141 of ageH1121, was pasturingH7462 the flockH6629 with his brothersH251 while he was still a youthH5288, along with 4the sonsH1121 of BilhahH1090 and the sonsH1121 of ZilpahH2153, his father’sH1 wivesH802. And JosephH3130 broughtH935 back a 5badH1681H7451 reportH1681 about them to their fatherH1. 3Now IsraelH3478 lovedH157 JosephH3130 moreH4480 thanH4480 allH3605 his sonsH1121, becauseH3588 he was 6the sonH1121 of his oldH2208 ageH2208; and he madeH6213 him a 78varicoloredH6446 tunicH3801. 4His brothersH251 sawH7200 that their fatherH1 lovedH157 him moreH4480 thanH4480 allH3605 his brothersH251; and so they 9hatedH8130 him and couldH3201 not speakH1696 to him 10on friendlyH7965 termsH7965.
