Génesis 37

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