1 And Jacob dwelt in the land wherein his father was a stranger, in the land of Canaan.
2 These arethe generations of Jacob. Joseph, beingseventeen years old, was feeding the flock
with his brethren; and the lad waswith the sons of Bilhah, and with the sons of Zilpah, his
father's wives: and Joseph brought unto his father their evil report.
3 Now Israel loved Joseph more than all his children, because he wasthe son of his old age: and
he made him a coat of manycolours.
4 And when his brethren saw that their father loved him more than all his brethren, they hated
him, and could not speak peaceably unto him.
5 And Joseph dreamed a dream, and he told ithis brethren: and they hated him yet the more.
6 And he said unto them, Hear, I pray you, this dream which I have dreamed:
7 For, behold, we werebinding sheaves in the field, and, lo, my sheaf arose, and also stood

upright; and, behold, your sheaves stood round about, and made obeisance to my sheaf.
8 And his brethren said to him, Shalt thou indeed reign over us? or shalt thou indeed have
dominion over us? And they hated him yet the more for his dreams, and for his words.
9 And he dreamed yet another dream, and told it his brethren, and said, Behold, I have dreamed a
dream more; and, behold, the sun and the moon and the eleven stars made obeisance to me.
10 And he told itto his father, and to his brethren: and his father rebuked him, and said unto
him, What isthis dream that thou hast dreamed? Shall I and thy mother and thy brethren indeed
come to bow down ourselves to thee to the earth?
11 And his brethren envied him; but his father observed the saying.
12 And his brethren went to feed their father's flock in Shechem.
13 And Israel said unto Joseph, Do not thy brethren feed the flockin Shechem? come, and I will
send thee unto them. And he said to him, Here am I.
14 And he said to him, Go, I pray thee, see whether it be well with thy brethren, and well with
the flocks; and bring me word again. So he sent him out of the vale of Hebron, and he came to
Shechem.
15 And a certain man found him, and, behold, he waswandering in the field: and the man asked
him, saying, What seekest thou?
16 And he said, I seek my brethren: tell me, I pray thee, where they feed their flocks.
17 And the man said, They are departed hence; for I heard them say, Let us go to Dothan. And
Joseph went after his brethren, and found them in Dothan.
18 And when they saw him afar off, even before he came near unto them, they conspired against
him to slay him.
19 And they said one to another, Behold, this dreamer cometh.
20 Come now therefore, and let us slay him, and cast him into some pit, and we will say, Some
evil beast hath devoured him: and we shall see what will become of his dreams.
21 And Reuben heard it, and he delivered him out of their hands; and said, Let us not kill him.
22 And Reuben said unto them, Shed no blood, butcast him into this pit that isin the
wilderness, and lay no hand upon him; that he might rid him out of their hands, to deliver him to
his father again.
23 And it came to pass, when Joseph was come unto his brethren, that they stript Joseph out of
his coat, hiscoat of manycolours that wason him;
24 And they took him, and cast him into a pit: and the pit wasempty, there wasno water in it.
25 And they sat down to eat bread: and they lifted up their eyes and looked, and, behold, a
company of Ishmeelites came from Gilead with their camels bearing spicery and balm and
myrrh, going to carry itdown to Egypt.
26 And Judah said unto his brethren, What profit is itif we slay our brother, and conceal his
blood?
27 Come, and let us sell him to the Ishmeelites, and let not our hand be upon him; for he isour
brother andour flesh. And his brethren were content.
28 Then there passed by Midianites merchantmen; and they drew and lifted up Joseph out of the
pit, and sold Joseph to the Ishmeelites for twenty piecesof silver: and they brought Joseph into
Egypt.
29 And Reuben returned unto the pit; and, behold, Joseph wasnot in the pit; and he rent his
clothes.
30 And he returned unto his brethren, and said, The child isnot; and I, whither shall I go?
31 And they took Joseph's coat, and killed a kid of the goats, and dipped the coat in the blood;
32 And they sent the coat of manycolours, and they brought itto their father; and said, This
have we found: know now whether it bethy son's coat or no.
33 And he knew it, and said, It ismy son's coat; an evil beast hath devoured him; Joseph is
