Joseph’s Dreams

1 Jacob lived in 1the land of his father’s sojournings, in the land of Canaan.
2 These are the generations of Jacob. Joseph, being seventeen years old, was pasturing the flock with his brothers. He was a boy with the sons of Bilhah and Zilpah, his father’s wives. And Joseph brought 2a bad report of them to their father.
3 Now Israel loved Joseph more than any other of his sons, because he was 3the son of his old age. And he made him 4a robe of many colors. a
4 But when his brothers saw that their father loved him more than all his brothers, they hated him and could not speak peacefully to him.
5 Now Joseph had a dream, and when he told it to his brothers they hated him even more.
6 He said to them, “Hear this dream that I have dreamed:
7 Behold, we were binding sheaves in the field, and behold, 5my sheaf arose and stood upright. And behold, your sheaves gathered around it and 6bowed down to my sheaf. ”
8 His brothers said to him, “Are you indeed to reign over us? Or are you indeed to rule over us? ” So they hated him even more for his dreams and for his words.
9 Then he dreamed another dream and told it to his brothers and said, “Behold, I have dreamed another dream. Behold, the sun, the moon, and eleven stars were bowing down to me. ”
10 But when he told it to his father and to his brothers, his father rebuked him and said to him, “What is this dream that you have dreamed? Shall I and 7your mother and your brothers indeed come 8to bow ourselves to the ground before you? ”
11 And 9his brothers were jealous of him, 10but his father kept the saying in mind.
