Genesis 37:2-4
2These are the generationsH8435 of JacobH3290. JosephH3130, being seventeenH7651H6240 yearsH8141 oldH1121, was feedingH7462 the flockH6629 with his brethrenH251; and the ladH5288 was with the sonsH1121 of BilhahH1090, and with the sonsH1121 of ZilpahH2153, his father’sH1 wivesH802: and JosephH3130 broughtH935 unto his fatherH1 their evilH7451 reportH1681.
3Now IsraelH3478 lovedH157 JosephH3130 more than all his childrenH1121, because he was the sonH1121 of his old ageH2208: and he madeH6213 him a coatH3801 of many coloursH6446.1
4And when his brethrenH251 sawH7200 that their fatherH1 lovedH157 him more than all his brethrenH251, they hatedH8130 him, and couldH3201 not speakH1696 peaceablyH7965 unto him.
