Genesis 37:6-9

6He saidH559 to them, “PleaseH4994 listenH8085 to thisH2088 dreamH2472 whichH834 I have 1hadH2492; 7for beholdH2009, we were bindingH481 sheavesH485 in the fieldH7704, and loH2009, my sheafH485 roseH6965 up and alsoH1571 stoodH5324 erectH5324; and beholdH2009, your sheavesH485 gatheredH5437 aroundH5437 and 2bowedH7812 downH7812 to my sheafH485.” 8Then his brothersH251 saidH559 to him, “3Are you actuallyH4427 going to reignH4427 overH5921 us? OrH518 are you reallyH4910 going to ruleH4910 over us?” So they hatedH8130 him evenH5750 moreH3254H5750 for his dreamsH2472 and for his wordsH1697.

9Now he 4hadH2492 stillH5750 anotherH312 dreamH2472, and relatedH5608 it to his brothersH251, and saidH559, “LoH2009, I have 5hadH2492 stillH5750 another dreamH2472; and beholdH2009, the sunH8121 and the moonH3394 and elevenH259H6240 starsH3556 were bowingH7812 downH7812 to me.”
