1 And Jacob H3290 dwelt H3427 W-VQY3MS in the land H776 B-GFS wherein his father H1 CMS-3MS was a stranger H4033 , in the land H776 B-GFS of Canaan H3667 LMS .
2 These H428 PMP are the generations H8435 of Jacob H3290 . Joseph H3130 , being seventeen H7651 years H8141 NFS old H1121 , was H1961 VQQ3MS feeding H7462 VQPMS the flock H6629 BD-NMS with H854 PREP his brethren H251 NMP-3MS ; and the lad H5288 was with H854 PREP the sons H1121 of Bilhah H1090 , and with H854 W-PART the sons H1121 of Zilpah H2153 , his father H1 CMS-3MS \'s wives H802 GFP : and Joseph H3130 brought H935 W-VHY3MS unto H413 PREP his father H1 their evil H7451 AFS report H1681 .
3 Now Israel H3478 loved H157 Joseph H3130 more than all H3605 M-CMS his children H1121 CMP-3MS , because H3588 CONJ he H1931 PPRO-3MS was the son H1121 CMS of his old age H2208 : and he made H6213 W-VQQ3MS him a coat H3801 of many colors H6446 .
4 And when his brethren H251 NMP-3MS saw H7200 W-VQY3MP that H3588 CONJ their father H1 CMS-3MP loved H157 him more than all H3605 M-CMS his brethren H251 NMP-3MS , they hated H8130 him , and could H3201 not H3808 W-NPAR speak H1696 peaceably H7965 unto him .
5 And Joseph H3130 dreamed H2492 a dream H2472 , and he told H5046 W-VHY3MS it his brethren H251 : and they hated H8130 him yet H5750 ADV the more H3254 .
6 And he said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP-3MP them , Hear H8085 VQI2MP , I pray you H4994 IJEC , this H2088 D-PMS dream H2472 which H834 RPRO I have dreamed H2492 :
7 For , behold H2009 IJEC , we H587 PPRO-1MP were binding H481 sheaves H485 in H8432 B-NMS the field H7704 D-NMS , and , lo H2009 IJEC , my sheaf H485 arose H6965 , and also H1571 W-CONJ stood upright H5324 ; and , behold H2009 IJEC , your sheaves H485 stood round about H5437 , and made obeisance H7812 to my sheaf H485 .
8 And his brethren H251 NMP-3MS said H559 W-VQY3MP to him , Shalt thou indeed reign H4427 over H5921 PREP us ? or H518 PART shalt thou indeed have dominion H4910 over us ? And they hated H8130 him yet H5750 ADV the more H3254 for H5921 PREP his dreams H2472 , and for H5921 PREP his words H1697 .
9 And he dreamed H2492 yet H5750 ADV another H312 AMS dream H2472 , and told H5608 it his brethren H251 , and said H559 W-VQY3MS , Behold H2009 IJEC , I have dreamed H2492 a dream H2472 more H5750 ADV ; and , behold H2009 IJEC , the sun H8121 D-NMS and the moon H3394 and the eleven H259 stars H3556 made obeisance H7812 to me .
10 And he told H5608 it to H413 PREP his father H1 CMS-3MS , and to H413 PREP his brethren H251 NMP-3MS : and his father H1 CMS-3MS rebuked H1605 him , and said H559 W-VQY3MS unto him , What H4100 IGAT is this H2088 D-PMS dream H2472 that H834 RPRO thou hast dreamed H2492 ? Shall I H589 PPRO-1MS and thy mother H517 and thy brethren H251 indeed come H935 to bow down ourselves H7812 to thee to the earth H776 NFS-3FS ?
11 And his brethren H251 NMP-3MS envied H7065 him ; but his father H1 observed H8104 the saying H1697 .
12 And his brethren H251 NMP-3MS went H1980 W-VQY3MP to feed H7462 their father H1 CMS-3MP \'s flock H6629 NMS in Shechem H7927 .
13 And Israel H3478 said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP Joseph H3130 , Do not H3808 D-NPAR thy brethren H251 CMP-2MS feed H7462 the flock in Shechem H7927 ? come H1980 VQI2MS-3FS , and I will send H7971 thee unto H413 PREP them . And he said H559 W-VQY3MS to him , Here H2009 am I .
14 And he said H559 W-VQY3MS to him , Go H1980 L-PPRO-2MS , I pray thee H4994 IJEC , see H7200 VQI2MS whether it be well H7965 with thy brethren H251 CMP-2MS , and well H7965 with the flocks H6629 ; and bring H7725 me word H1697 VQPMS again . So he sent H7971 him out of the vale H6010 of Hebron H2275 , and he came H935 W-VQY3MS to Shechem H7927 .
15 And a certain man H376 found H4672 him , and , behold H2009 IJEC , he was wandering H8582 in the field H7704 B-NMS : and the man H376 asked H7592 him , saying H559 L-VQFC , What H4100 IPRO seekest H1245 thou ?
16 And he said H559 W-VQY3MS , I H595 PPRO-1MS seek H1245 my brethren H251 NMP-1MS : tell H5046 me , I pray thee H4994 IJEC , where H375 IGAT they H1992 PPRO-3MP feed H7462 their flocks .
17 And the man H376 D-NMS said H559 W-VQY3MS , They are departed H5265 hence H2088 M-DPRO ; for H3588 CONJ I heard H8085 VQQ1MS them say H559 W-VQY3MS , Let us go H1980 to Dothan H1886 . And Joseph H3130 went H1980 W-VQY3MS after H310 ADV his brethren H251 NMP-3MS , and found H4672 them in Dothan H1886 .
18 And when they saw H7200 W-VQY3MP him afar off H7350 , even before H2962 he came near H7126 unto H413 PREP-3MP them , they conspired H5230 against him to slay H4191 him .
19 And they said H559 W-VQY3MP one H376 NMS to H413 PREP another H251 CMS-3MS , Behold H2009 IJEC , this H1976 dreamer H1167 CMS cometh H935 .
20 Come H1980 VQI2MP now H6258 W-ADV therefore , and let us slay H2026 him , and cast H7993 him into some H259 pit H953 , and we will say H559 , Some evil H7451 AFS beast H2416 AFS hath devoured H398 him : and we shall see H7200 what H4100 IPRO will become H1961 of his dreams H2472 .
21 And Reuben H7205 heard H8085 it , and he delivered H5337 him out of their hands H3027 ; and said H559 W-VQY3MS , Let us not H3808 NADV kill H5221 him .
22 And Reuben H7205 said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP them , Shed H8210 no H408 NPAR blood H1818 NMS , but cast H7993 him into H413 PREP this H2088 D-PMS pit H953 that H834 RPRO is in the wilderness H4057 , and lay H7971 no H408 NPAR hand H3027 upon him ; that H4616 L-CONJ he might rid H5337 him out of their hands H3027 , to deliver H7725 him to H413 PREP his father H1 again .
23 And it came to pass H1961 W-VPY3MS , when H834 RPRO Joseph H3130 was come H935 VQPMS unto H413 PREP his brethren H251 NMP-3MS , that they stripped H6584 Joseph H3130 out of his coat H3801 , his coat H3801 of many colors H6446 that H834 RPRO was on H5921 him ;
24 And they took H3947 him , and cast H7993 him into a pit H953 : and the pit H953 was empty H7386 , there was no H369 NPAR water H4325 NMP in it .
25 And they sat down H3427 W-VQY3MP to eat H398 bread H3899 NMS : and they lifted up H5375 W-VQY3MP their eyes H5869 and looked H7200 W-VQY3MP , and , behold H2009 IJEC , a company H736 of Ishmaelites H3459 came H935 VQQ3FS 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 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP his brethren H251 NMP-3MS , What H4100 IPRO profit H1215 NMS is it if H3588 CONJ we slay H2026 our brother H251 , and conceal H3680 his blood H1818 ?
27 Come H1980 VQI2MP , and let us sell H4376 him to the Ishmaelites H3459 , and let not H408 NPAR our hand H3027 be H1961 VQI3FS upon him ; for H3588 CONJ he H1931 PPRO-3MS is our brother H251 and our flesh H1320 . And his brethren H251 were content H8085 W-VQY3MP .
28 Then there passed by H5674 Midianites H4084 merchantmen H5503 ; and they drew H4900 and lifted up H5927 Joseph H3130 out of H4480 PREP the pit H953 , and sold H4376 Joseph H3130 to the Ishmaelites H3459 for twenty H6242 pieces of silver H3701 NMS : and they brought H935 Joseph H3130 into Egypt H4714 .
29 And Reuben H7205 returned H7725 unto H413 PREP the pit H953 ; and , behold H2009 IJEC , Joseph H3130 was not H369 NPAR in the pit H953 ; and he rent H7167 W-VQY3MS his clothes H899 .
30 And he returned H7725 unto H413 PREP his brethren H251 NMP-3MS , and said H559 W-VQY3MS , The child H3206 is not H369 ; and I H589 W-PPRO-1MS , whither H575 ADV shall I H589 W-PPRO-1MS go H935 ?
31 And they took H3947 W-VQY3MP Joseph H3130 \'s coat H3801 , and killed H7819 a kid H8163 of the goats H5795 , and dipped H2881 the coat H3801 in the blood H1818 ;
32 And they sent H7971 the coat H3801 of many colors H6446 , and they brought H935 it to H413 PREP their father H1 CMS-3MP ; and said H559 W-VQY3MP , This H2063 DPRO have we found H4672 VQQ1MP : know H5234 now H4994 IJEC whether it H1931 PPRO-3FS be thy son H1121 \'s coat H3801 or H518 PART no H3808 ADV .
33 And he knew H5234 it , and said H559 W-VQY3MS , It is my son H1121 NMS-1MS \'s coat H3801 ; an evil H7451 AFS beast H2416 AFS hath devoured H398 him ; Joseph H3130 is without doubt rent in pieces H2963 .
34 And Jacob H3290 rent H7167 W-VQY3MS his clothes H8071 , and put H7760 W-VQY3MS sackcloth H8242 NMS upon his loins H4975 , and mourned H56 for H5921 PREP his son H1121 CMS-3MS many H7227 AMP days H3117 NMP .
35 And all H3605 CMS his sons H1121 NMS-1MS and all H3605 W-CMS his daughters H1323 rose up H6965 to comfort H5162 him ; but he refused H3985 to be comforted H5162 ; and he said H559 W-VQY3MS , For H3588 CONJ I will go down H3381 into the grave H7585 unto H413 PREP my son H1121 NMS-1MS mourning H57 . Thus his father H1 wept H1058 for him .
36 And the Midianites H4092 sold H4376 him into H413 PREP Egypt H4714 unto Potiphar H6318 , an officer H5631 of Pharaoh H6547 EMS \'s , and captain H8269 of the guard H2876 .
