[1] Jacob lived in the land of his father’s travels, in the land of Canaan. [2] This is the history of the generations of Jacob. Joseph, being seventeen years old, was feeding the flock with his brothers. He was a boy with the sons of Bilhah and Zilpah, his father’s wives. Joseph brought an evil report of them to their father. [3] Now Israel loved Joseph more than all his children, because he was the son of his old age, and he made him a tunic of many colors. [4] His brothers saw that their father loved him more than all his brothers, and they hated him, and couldn’t speak peaceably to him. [5] Joseph dreamed a dream, and he told it to his brothers, and they hated him all the more. [6] He said to them, “Please hear this dream which I have dreamed: [7] for behold, we were binding sheaves in the field, and behold, my sheaf arose and also stood upright; and behold, your sheaves came around, and bowed down to my sheaf.” [8] His brothers asked him, “Will you indeed reign over us? Will you indeed have dominion over us?” They hated him all the more for his dreams and for his words. [9] He dreamed yet another dream, and told it to his brothers, and said, “Behold, I have dreamed yet another dream: and behold, the sun and the moon and eleven stars bowed down to me.” [10] 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? Will I and your mother and your brothers indeed come to bow ourselves down to the earth before you?” [11] His brothers envied him, but his father kept this saying in mind. [12] His brothers went to feed their father’s flock in Shechem. [13] Israel said to Joseph, “Aren’t your brothers feeding the flock in Shechem? Come, and I will send you to them.” He said to him, “Here I am.” [14] He said to him, “Go now, see whether it is well with your brothers, and well with the flock; and bring me word again.” So he sent him out of the valley of Hebron, and he came to Shechem. [15] A certain man found him, and behold, he was wandering in the field. The man asked him, “What are you looking for?” [16] He said, “I am looking for my brothers. Tell me, please, where they are feeding the flock.” [17] The man said, “They have left here, for I heard them say, ‘Let’s go to Dothan.’”Joseph went after his brothers, and found them in Dothan. [18] They saw him afar off, and before he came near to them, they conspired against him to kill him. [19] They said to one another, “Behold, this dreamer comes. [20] Come now therefore, and let’s kill him, and cast him into one of the pits, and we will say, ‘An evil animal has devoured him.’ We will see what will become of his dreams.” [21] Reuben heard it, and delivered him out of their hand, and said, “Let’s not take his life.” [22] Reuben said to them, “Shed no blood. Throw him into this pit that is in the wilderness, but lay no hand on him”—that he might deliver him out of their hand, to restore him to his father. [23] When Joseph came to his brothers, they stripped Joseph of his tunic, the tunic of many colors that was on him; [24] and they took him, and threw him into the pit. The pit was empty. There was no water in it. [25] They sat down to eat bread, and they lifted up their eyes and looked, and saw a caravan of Ishmaelites coming from Gilead, with their camels bearing spices and balm and myrrh, going to carry it down to Egypt. [26] Judah said to his brothers, “What profit is it if we kill our brother and conceal his blood? [27] Come, and let’s sell him to the Ishmaelites, and not let our hand be on him; for he is our brother, our flesh.” His brothers listened to him. [28] Midianites who were merchants passed by, and they drew and lifted up Joseph out of the pit, and sold Joseph to the Ishmaelites for twenty pieces of silver. The merchants brought Joseph into Egypt. [29] Reuben returned to the pit, and saw that Joseph wasn’t in the pit; and he tore his clothes. [30] He returned to his brothers, and said, “The child is no more; and I, where will I go?” [31] They took Joseph’s tunic, and killed a male goat, and dipped the tunic in the blood. [32] They took the tunic of many colors, and they brought it to their father, and said, “We have found this. Examine it, now, and see if it is your son’s tunic or not.” [33] He recognized it, and said, “It is my son’s tunic. An evil animal has devoured him. Joseph is without doubt torn in pieces.” [34] Jacob tore his clothes, and put sackcloth on his waist, and mourned for his son many days. [35] All his sons and all his daughters rose up to comfort him, but he refused to be comforted. He said, “For I will go down to Sheolⓘ to my son, mourning.” His father wept for him. [36] The Midianites sold him into Egypt to Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh’s, the captain of the guard.

Joseph

[1] And Jacob H3290 dwelt H3427 in the land H776 wherein H4033 his father H1 was a stranger, H4033 in the land H776 of Canaan. H3667 [2] These H428 are the generations H8435 of Jacob. H3290 Joseph, H3130 being seventeen H7651 H6240 years H8141 old, H1121 was H1961 feeding H7462 the flock H6629 with H854 his brethren; H251 and H1931 the lad H5288 was with H854 the sons H1121 of Bilhah, H1090 and with H854 the sons H1121 of Zilpah, H2153 his father’s H1 wives: H802 and Joseph H3130 brought H935 unto H413 his father H1 H853 their H1681 evil H7451 report. H1681 [3] Now Israel H3478 loved H157 H853 Joseph H3130 more than all H3605 his children, H1121 because H3588 he H1931 was the son H1121 of H2208 his old age: H2208 and he made H6213 him a coat H3801 of many colours. H6446 [4] And when his brethren H251 saw H7200 that H3588 their father H1 loved H157 him H853 more than all H3605 his brethren, H251 they hated H8130 him, H853 and could H3201 not H3808 speak H1696 peaceably H7965 unto him. H1696 [5] And Joseph H3130 dreamed H2492 a dream, H2472 and he told H5046 it his brethren: H251 and they hated H8130 him H853 yet H5750 the more. H3254 [6] And he said H559 unto them, H413 Hear, H8085 I pray you, H4994 this H2088 dream H2472 which H834 I have dreamed: H2492 [7] for, behold, H2009 we H587 were binding H481 sheaves H485 in H8432 the field, H7704 and, lo, H2009 my sheaf H485 arose, H6965 and also H1571 stood upright; H5324 and, behold, H2009 your sheaves H485 stood round about, H5437 and made obeisance H7812 to my sheaf. H485 [8] And his brethren H251 said H559 to him, Shalt thou indeed H4427 reign H4427 over us? H5921 or H518 shalt thou indeed H4910 have dominion H4910 over us? And they hated H8130 him H853 yet H5750 the more H3254 for H5921 his dreams, H2472 and for H5921 his words. H1697 [9] And he dreamed H2492 yet H5750 another H312 dream, H2472 and told H5608 it H853 his brethren, H251 and said, H559 Behold, H2009 I have dreamed H2492 a dream H2472 more; H5750 and, behold, H2009 the sun H8121 and the moon H3394 and the eleven H259 H6240 stars H3556 made obeisance H7812 to me. [10] And he told H5608 it to H413 his father, H1 and to H413 his brethren: H251 and his father H1 rebuked H1605 him, and said H559 unto him, What H4100 is this H2088 dream H2472 that H834 thou hast dreamed? H2492 Shall H935 I H589 and thy mother H517 and thy brethren H251 indeed H935 come H935 to bow down ourselves H7812 to thee to the earth? H776 [11] And his brethren H251 envied H7065 him; but his father H1 observed H8104 H853 the saying. H1697 [12] And his brethren H251 went H3212 to feed H7462 H853 their father’s H1 flock H6629 in Shechem. H7927 [13] And Israel H3478 said H559 unto H413 Joseph, H3130 Do not H3808 thy brethren H251 feed H7462 the flock in Shechem? H7927 come, H3212 and I will send thee H7971 unto them. H413 And he said H559 to him, Here H2009 am I. [14] And he said H559 to him, Go, H3212 I pray thee, H4994 see H7200 H853 whether it be well H7965 with thy brethren, H251§ and H853 well H7965 with the flocks; H6629 and bring me H7725 word H1697 again. H7725 So he sent him H7971 out of the vale H6010 of Hebron, H2275 and he came H935 to Shechem. H7927 [15] And a certain man H376 found him, H4672 and, behold, H2009 he was wandering H8582 in the field: H7704 and the man H376 asked him, H7592 saying, H559 What H4100 seekest H1245 thou? [16] And he said, H559 I H595 seek H1245 H853 my brethren: H251 tell H5046 me, I pray thee, H4994 where H375 they H1992 feed H7462 their flocks. [17] And the man H376 said, H559 They are departed H5265 hence; H2088 for H3588 I heard H8085 them say, H559 Let us go H3212 to Dothan. H1886 And Joseph H3130 went H3212 after H310 his brethren, H251 and found them H4672 in Dothan. H1886 [18] And when they saw H7200 him H853 afar off, H7350 even before H2962 he came near H7126 unto them, H413 they conspired H5230 against him H853 to slay him. H4191 [19] And they said H559 one H376 to H413 another, H251 Behold, H2009 this H1976 dreamer H1167§ H2472 cometh. H935 [20] Come H3212 now therefore, H6258 and let us slay him, H2026 and cast him H7993 into some H259 pit, H953 and we will say, H559 Some evil H7451 beast H2416 hath devoured him: H398 and we shall see H7200 what H4100 will become H1961 of his dreams. H2472 [21] And Reuben H7205 heard H8085 it, and he delivered him H5337 out of their hands; H3027 and said, H559 Let us H5221 not H3808 kill him. H5221 H5315 [22] And Reuben H7205 said H559 unto them, H413 Shed H8210 no H408 blood, H1818 but cast H7993 him H853 into H413 this H2088 pit H953 that H834 is in the wilderness, H4057 and lay H7971 no H408 hand H3027 upon him; that H4616 he might rid H5337 him H853 out of their hands, H3027 to deliver him H7725 to H413 his father H1 again. H7725 [23] And it came to pass, H1961 when H834 Joseph H3130 was come H935 unto H413 his brethren, H251 that they stript H6584 H853 Joseph H3130 out of H853 his coat, H3801 H853 his coat H3801 of many colours H6446 that H834 was on him; H5921 [24] and they took him, H3947 and cast H7993 him H853 into a pit: H953 and the pit H953 was empty, H7386 there was no H369 water H4325 in it. [25] And they sat down H3427 to eat H398 bread: H3899 and they lifted up H5375 their eyes H5869 and looked, H7200 and, behold, H2009 a company H736 of Ishmeelites H3459 came H935 from Gilead H1568 with their camels H1581 bearing H5375 spicery H5219 and balm H6875 and myrrh, H3910 going H1980 to carry it down H3381 to Egypt. H4714 [26] And Judah H3063 said H559 unto H413 his brethren, H251 What H4100 profit H1215 is it if H3588 we slay H2026 H853 our brother, H251 and conceal H3680 H853 his blood? H1818 [27] Come, H3212 and let us sell him H4376 to the Ishmeelites, H3459 and let H1961 not H408 our hand H3027 be H1961 upon him; for H3588 he H1931 is our brother H251 and our flesh. H1320 And his brethren H251 were content. H8085§ [28] Then there passed by H5674 H582 Midianites H4084 merchantmen; H5503 and they drew H4900 and lifted up H5927 H853 Joseph H3130 out of H4480 the pit, H953 and sold H4376 H853 Joseph H3130 to the Ishmeelites H3459 for twenty H6242 pieces of silver: H3701 and they brought H935 H853 Joseph H3130 into Egypt. H4714 [29] And Reuben H7205 returned H7725 unto H413 the pit; H953 and, behold, H2009 Joseph H3130 was not H369 in the pit; H953 and he rent H7167 H853 his clothes. H899 [30] And he returned H7725 unto H413 his brethren, H251 and said, H559 The child H3206 is not; H369 and I, H589 whither H575 shall H935 I H589 go? H935 [31] And they took H3947 H853 Joseph’s H3130 coat, H3801 and killed H7819 a kid H8163 of the goats, H5795 and dipped H2881 H853 the coat H3801 in the blood; H1818 [32] and they sent H7971 H853 the coat H3801 of many colours, H6446 and they brought H935 it to H413 their father; H1 and said, H559 This H2063 have we found: H4672 know H5234 now H4994 whether it H1931 be thy son’s H1121 coat H3801 or H518 no. H3808 [33] And he knew it, H5234 and said, H559 It is my son’s H1121 coat; H3801 an evil H7451 beast H2416 hath devoured him; H398 Joseph H3130 is without doubt H2963 rent in pieces. H2963 [34] And Jacob H3290 rent H7167 his clothes, H8071 and put H7760 sackcloth H8242 upon his loins, H4975 and mourned H56 for H5921 his son H1121 many H7227 days. H3117 [35] And all H3605 his sons H1121 and all H3605 his daughters H1323 rose up H6965 to comfort him; H5162 but he refused H3985 to be comforted; H5162 and he said, H559 For H3588 I will go down H3381 into the grave H7585 unto H413 my son H1121 mourning. H57 Thus his father H1 wept H1058 for him. H853 [36] And the Midianites H4092 sold H4376 him H853 into H413 Egypt H4714 unto Potiphar, H6318 an officer H5631§ of Pharaoh’s, H6547 and captain H8269 of the guard. H2876§
