Del

Now it fell out also that he told his brethren a dream, that he had dreamed: which occasioned them to hate him the more.

Now Israel loved Joseph above all his sons, because he had him in his old age: and he made him a coat of divers colours.

And his brethren seeing that he was loved by his father, more than all his sons, hated him, and could not speak peaceably to him.

He dreamed also another dream, which he told his brethren, saying: I saw in a dream, as it were the sun, and the moon, and eleven stars worshipping me.

His brethren therefore envied him: but his father considered the thing with himself.

And he said to them: Hear my dream which I dreamed. I thought we were binding sheaves in the field: and my sheaf arose as it were, end stood, and your sheaves standing about, bowed down before my sheaf.

Come, let us kill him, and cast him into some old pit; and we will say: Some evil beast hath devoured him: and then it shall appear what his dreams avail him

And when the Madianite merchants passed by, they drew him out of the pit, and sold him to the Ismaelites, for twenty pieces of silver: and they led him into Egypt.

And said one to another: Behold, the dreamer cometh.

And when they saw him afar off, before he came nigh them, they thought to kill him.

Do not take away his life, nor shed his blood: but cast him into this pit, that is in the wilderness, and keep your hands harmless. Now he said this, being desirous to deliver him out of their hands and to restore him to his father.
