Genesis 37:4–11

⁴and his brethren see that their father hath loved him more than any of his brethren, and they hate him, and have not been able to speak to him peaceably.

⁵And Joseph dreameth a dream, and declareth to his brethren, and they add still more to hate him. ⁶And he saith unto them, ‘Hear ye, I pray you, this dream which I have dreamed: ⁷that, lo, we are binding bundles in the midst of the field, and lo, my bundle hath arisen, and hath also stood up, and lo, your bundles are round about, and bow themselves to my bundle.’ ⁸And his brethren say to him, ‘Dost thou certainly reign over us? dost thou certainly rule over us?’ and they add still more to hate him, for his dreams, and for his words. ⁹And he dreameth yet another dream, and recounteth it to his brethren, and saith, ‘Lo, I have dreamed a dream again, and lo, the sun and the moon, and eleven stars, are bowing themselves to me.’ ¹⁰And he recounteth unto his father, and unto his brethren; and his father pusheth against him, and saith to him, ‘What is this dream which thou hast dreamt? do we certainly come—I, and thy mother, and thy brethren—to bow ourselves to thee, to the earth?’ ¹¹and his brethren are zealous against him, and his father hath watched the matter.
