Genesis 37:5-8

5Joseph had a dream, and when he told it to his brothers, they hated him all the more.

6He said to them, “Listen to this dream I had:

7We were binding sheaves of grain out in the field when suddenly my sheaf rose and stood upright, while your sheaves gathered around mine and bowed down to it.”

8His brothers said to him, “Do you intend to reign over us? Will you actually rule us?” And they hated him all the more because of his dream and what he had said.
