And they hated{H8130}{(H8800)} him yet the more{H3254}{(H8686)} for his dreams{H2472}, and for his words{H1697}. 9 And he dreamed{H2492}{(H8799)} yet another{H312} dream{H2472}, and told{H5608}{(H8762)} it his brethren{H251}, and said{H559}{(H8799)}, Behold, I have dreamed{H2492}{(H8804)} a dream{H2472} more; and, behold, the sun{H8121} and the moon{H3394} and the eleven{H6240}{H259} stars{H3556} made obeisance{H7812}{(H8693)} to me. 10 And he told{H5608}{(H8762)} it to his father{H1}, and to his brethren{H251}: and his father{H1} rebuked{H1605}{(H8799)} him, and said{H559}{(H8799)} unto him, What is this dream{H2472} that thou hast dreamed{H2492}{(H8804)}? Shall I and thy mother{H517} and thy brethren{H251} indeed{H935}{(H8800)} come{H935}{(H8799)} to bow down{H7812}{(H8692)} ourselves to thee to the earth{H776}? 11 And his brethren{H251} envied{H7065}{(H8762)} him; but his father{H1} observed{H8104}{(H8804)} the saying{H1697}. 12 And his brethren{H251} went{H3212}{(H8799)} to feed{H7462}{(H8800)} their father's{H1} flock{H6629} in Shechem{H7927}. 13 And Israel{H3478} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto Joseph{H3130}, Do not thy brethren{H251} feed{H7462}{(H8802)} the flock in Shechem{H7927}? come{H3212}{(H8798)}, and I will send thee{H7971}{(H8799)} unto them. And he said{H559}{(H8799)} to him, Here am I. 14 And he said{H559}{(H8799)} to him, Go{H3212}{(H8798)}, I pray thee, see{H7200}{(H8798)} whether it be well{H7965} with thy brethren{H251}, and well{H7965} with the flocks{H6629}; and bring{H7725} me word{H1697} again{H7725}{(H8685)}. So he sent{H7971}{(H8799)} him out of the vale{H6010} of Hebron{H2275}, and he came{H935}{(H8799)} to Shechem{H7927}. 15 And a certain man{H376} found him{H4672}{(H8799)}, and, behold, he was wandering{H8582}{(H8802)} in the field{H7704}: and the man{H376} asked him{H7592}{(H8799)}, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, What seekest{H1245}{(H8762)} thou? 16 And he said{H559}{(H8799)}, I seek{H1245}{(H8764)} my brethren{H251}: tell{H5046}{(H8685)} me, I pray thee, where{H375} they feed{H7462}{(H8802)} their flocks. 17 And the man{H376} said{H559}{(H8799)}, They are departed{H5265}{(H8804)} hence{H2088}; for I heard{H8085}{(H8804)} them say{H559}{(H8802)}, Let us go{H3212}{(H8799)} to Dothan{H1886}. And Joseph{H3130} went{H3212}{(H8799)} after{H310} his brethren{H251}, and found{H4672}{(H8799)} them in Dothan{H1886}. 18 And when they saw{H7200}{(H8799)} him afar off{H7350}, even before he came near{H7126}{(H8799)} unto them, they conspired{H5230}{(H8691)} against him to slay{H4191}{(H8687)} him. 19 And they said{H559}{(H8799)} one{H376} to another{H251}, Behold, this{H1976} dreamer{H1167}{H2472} cometh{H935}{(H8802)}. 20 Come{H3212}{(H8798)} now therefore, and let us slay{H2026}{(H8799)} him, and cast{H7993}{(H8686)} him into some{H259} pit{H953}, and we will say{H559}{(H8804)}, Some evil{H7451} beast{H2416} hath devoured{H398}{(H8804)} him: and we shall see{H7200}{(H8799)} what will become of his dreams{H2472}. 21 And Reuben{H7205} heard{H8085}{(H8799)} it, and he delivered{H5337}{(H8686)} him out of their hands{H3027}; and said{H559}{(H8799)}, Let us not kill{H5221}{(H8686)}{H5315} him. 22 And Reuben{H7205} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto them, Shed{H8210}{(H8799)} no blood{H1818}, but cast{H7993}{(H8685)} him into this pit{H953} that is in the wilderness{H4057}, and lay{H7971}{(H8799)} no hand{H3027} upon him; that he might rid{H5337}{(H8687)} him out of their hands{H3027}, to deliver{H7725} him to his father{H1} again{H7725}{(H8687)}. 23 And it came to pass, when Joseph{H3130} was come{H935}{(H8804)} unto his brethren{H251}, that they stript{H6584}{(H8686)}{H853} Joseph{H3130} out of{H854} his coat{H3801}, his coat{H3801} of many colours{H6446} that was on him; 24 And they took{H3947}{(H8799)} him, and cast{H7993}{(H8686)} him into a pit{H953}: and the pit{H953} was empty{H7386}, there was no water{H4325} in it. 25 And they sat down{H3427}{(H8799)} to eat{H398}{(H8800)} bread{H3899}: and they lifted up{H5375}{(H8799)} their eyes{H5869} and looked{H7200}{(H8799)}, and, behold, a company{H736} of Ishmeelites{H3459} came{H935}{(H8802)} from Gilead{H1568} with their camels{H1581} bearing{H5375}{(H8802)} spicery{H5219} and balm{H6875} and myrrh{H3910}, going{H1980}{(H8802)} to carry it down{H3381}{(H8687)} to Egypt{H4714}. 26 And Judah{H3063} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto his brethren{H251}, What profit{H1215} is it if we slay{H2026}{(H8799)} our brother{H251}, and conceal{H3680}{(H8765)} his blood{H1818}? 27 Come{H3212}{(H8798)}, and let us sell{H4376}{(H8799)} him to the Ishmeelites{H3459}, and let not our hand{H3027} be upon him; for he is our brother{H251} and our flesh{H1320}. And his brethren{H251} were content{H8085}{(H8799)}. 28 Then there passed{H5674}{(H8799)} by Midianites{H4084} merchantmen{H582}{H5503}{(H8802)}; and they drew{H4900}{(H8799)} and lifted up{H5927}{(H8686)} Joseph{H3130} out of the pit{H953}, and sold{H4376}{(H8799)} Joseph{H3130} to the Ishmeelites{H3459} for twenty{H6242} pieces of silver{H3701}: and they brought{H935}{(H8686)} Joseph{H3130} into Egypt{H4714}. 29 And Reuben{H7205} returned{H7725}{(H8799)} unto the pit{H953}; and, behold, Joseph{H3130} was not in the pit{H953}; and he rent{H7167}{(H8799)} his clothes{H899}. 30 And he returned{H7725}{(H8799)} unto his brethren{H251}, and said{H559}{(H8799)}, The child{H3206} is not; and I, whither{H575} shall I go{H935}{(H8802)}? 31 And they took{H3947}{(H8799)} Joseph's{H3130} coat{H3801}, and killed{H7819}{(H8799)} a kid{H8163} of the goats{H5795}, and dipped{H2881}{(H8799)} the coat{H3801} in the blood{H1818}; 32 And they sent{H7971}{(H8762)} the coat{H3801} of many colours{H6446}, and they brought{H935}{(H8686)} it to their father{H1}; and said{H559}{(H8799)}, This have we found{H4672}{(H8804)}: know{H5234}{(H8685)} now whether it be thy son's{H1121} coat{H3801} or no. 33 And he knew it{H5234}{(H8686)}, and said{H559}{(H8799)}, It is my son's{H1121} coat{H3801}; an evil{H7451} beast{H2416} hath devoured{H398}{(H8804)} him; Joseph{H3130} is without doubt{H2963}{(H8800)} rent in pieces{H2963}{(H8776)}. 34 And Jacob{H3290} rent{H7167}{(H8799)} his clothes{H8071}, and put{H7760}{(H8799)} sackcloth{H8242} upon his loins{H4975}, and mourned{H56}{(H8691)} for his son{H1121} many{H7227} days{H3117}. 35 And all his sons{H1121} and all his daughters{H1323} rose up{H6965}{(H8799)} to comfort{H5162}{(H8763)} him; but he refused{H3985}{(H8762)} to be comforted{H5162}{(H8692)}; and he said{H559}{(H8799)}, For I will go down{H3381}{(H8799)} into the grave{H7585} unto my son{H1121} mourning{H57}. Thus his father{H1} wept{H1058}{(H8799)} for him. 36 And the Midianites{H4092} sold{H4376}{(H8804)} him into Egypt{H4714} unto Potiphar{H6318}, an officer{H5631} of Pharaoh's{H6547}, and captain{H8269} of the guard{H2876}.
- Gen 39:1-9 : 1 And Joseph{H3130} was brought down{H3381}{(H8717)} to Egypt{H4714}; and Potiphar{H6318}, an officer{H5631} of Pharaoh{H6547}, captain{H8269} of the guard{H2876}, an Egyptian{H376}{H4713}, bought{H7069}{(H8799)} him of the hands{H3027} of the Ishmeelites{H3459}, which had brought him down{H3381}{(H8689)} thither. 2 And the LORD{H3068} was with Joseph{H3130}, and he was a prosperous{H6743}{(H8688)} man{H376}; and he was in the house{H1004} of his master{H113} the Egyptian{H4713}. 3 And his master{H113} saw{H7200}{(H8799)} that the LORD{H3068} was with him, and that the LORD{H3068} made all that he did{H6213}{(H8802)} to prosper{H6743}{(H8688)} in his hand{H3027}. 4 And Joseph{H3130} found{H4672}{(H8799)} grace{H2580} in his sight{H5869}, and he served{H8334}{(H8762)} him: and he made him overseer{H6485}{(H8686)} over his house{H1004}, and all that he had{H3426} he put{H5414}{(H8804)} into his hand{H3027}. 5 And it came to pass from the time{H227} that he had made him overseer{H6485}{(H8689)} in his house{H1004}, and over all that he had{H3426}, that the LORD{H3068} blessed{H1288}{(H8762)} the Egyptian's{H4713} house{H1004} for Joseph's{H3130} sake{H1558}; and the blessing{H1293} of the LORD{H3068} was upon all that he had{H3426} in the house{H1004}, and in the field{H7704}. 6 And he left{H5800}{(H8799)} all that he had in Joseph's{H3130} hand{H3027}; and he knew{H3045}{(H8804)} not ought{H3972} he had, save{H518} the bread{H3899} which he did eat{H398}{(H8802)}. And Joseph{H3130} was a goodly{H8389} person, and well{H3303} favoured{H4758}. 7 And it came to pass after{H310} these things{H1697}, that his master's{H113} wife{H802} cast{H5375}{(H8799)} her eyes{H5869} upon Joseph{H3130}; and she said{H559}{(H8799)}, Lie{H7901}{(H8798)} with me. 8 But he refused{H3985}{(H8762)}, and said{H559}{(H8799)} unto his master's{H113} wife{H802}, Behold, my master{H113} wotteth{H3045}{(H8804)} not what is with me in the house{H1004}, and he hath committed{H5414}{(H8804)} all that he hath{H3426} to my hand{H3027}; 9 There is none greater{H1419} in this house{H1004} than I; neither{H3808} hath he kept back{H2820}{(H8804)} any thing{H3972} from me but thee, because{H834} thou{H859} art his wife{H802}: how then can I do{H6213}{(H8799)} this great{H1419} wickedness{H7451}, and sin{H2398}{(H8804)} against God{H430}? 10 And it came to pass, as she spake{H1696}{(H8763)} to Joseph{H3130} day{H3117} by day{H3117}, that he hearkened{H8085}{(H8804)} not unto her, to lie{H7901}{(H8800)} by her{H681}, or to be with her. 11 And it came to pass about this time{H3117}, that Joseph went{H935}{(H8799)} into the house{H1004} to do{H6213}{(H8800)} his business{H4399}; and there was none of the men{H376}{H582} of the house{H1004} there within. 12 And she caught{H8610}{(H8799)} him by his garment{H899}, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, Lie{H7901}{(H8798)} with me: and he left{H5800}{(H8799)} his garment{H899} in her hand{H3027}, and fled{H5127}{(H8799)}, and got{H3318}{(H8799)} him out{H2351}. 13 And it came to pass, when she saw{H7200}{(H8800)} that he had left{H5800}{(H8804)} his garment{H899} in her hand{H3027}, and was fled{H5127}{(H8799)} forth{H2351}, 14 That she called{H7121}{(H8799)} unto the men{H582} of her house{H1004}, and spake{H559}{(H8799)} unto them, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, See{H7200}{(H8798)}, he hath brought in{H935}{(H8689)} an Hebrew{H376}{H5680} unto us to mock{H6711}{(H8763)} us; he came in{H935}{(H8804)} unto me to lie{H7901}{(H8800)} with me, and I cried{H7121}{(H8799)} with a loud{H1419} voice{H6963}: 15 And it came to pass, when he heard{H8085}{(H8800)} that I lifted up{H7311}{(H8689)} my voice{H6963} and cried{H7121}{(H8799)}, that he left{H5800}{(H8799)} his garment{H899} with me{H681}, and fled{H5127}{(H8799)}, and got him{H3318}{(H8799)} out{H2351}. 16 And she laid up{H3240}{(H8686)} his garment{H899} by her{H681}, until his lord{H113} came{H935}{(H8800)} home{H1004}. 17 And she spake{H1696}{(H8762)} unto him according to these words{H1697}, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, The Hebrew{H5680} servant{H5650}, which thou hast brought{H935}{(H8689)} unto us, came in{H935}{(H8804)} unto me to mock{H6711}{(H8763)} me: 18 And it came to pass, as I lifted up{H7311}{(H8687)} my voice{H6963} and cried{H7121}{(H8799)}, that he left{H5800}{(H8799)} his garment{H899} with me{H681}, and fled{H5127}{(H8799)} out{H2351}. 19 And it came to pass, when his master{H113} heard{H8085}{(H8800)} the words{H1697} of his wife{H802}, which she spake{H1696}{(H8765)} unto him, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, After this manner{H1697} did{H6213}{(H8804)} thy servant{H5650} to me; that his wrath{H639} was kindled{H2734}{(H8799)}. 20 And Joseph's{H3130} master{H113} took{H3947}{(H8799)} him, and put him{H5414}{(H8799)} into the prison{H1004}{H5470}, a place{H4725} where the king's{H4428} prisoners{H615} were bound{H631}{(H8803)}: and he was there in the prison{H1004}{H5470}. 21 But the LORD{H3068} was with Joseph{H3130}, and shewed{H5186}{(H8799)} him mercy{H2617}, and gave{H5414}{(H8799)} him favour{H2580} in the sight{H5869} of the keeper{H8269} of the prison{H1004}{H5470}. 22 And the keeper{H8269} of the prison{H1004}{H5470} committed{H5414}{(H8799)} to Joseph's{H3130} hand{H3027} all the prisoners{H615} that were in the prison{H1004}{H5470}; and whatsoever they did{H6213}{(H8802)} there, he was the doer{H6213}{(H8802)} of it. 23 The keeper{H8269} of the prison{H1004}{H5470} looked{H7200}{(H8802)} not to any thing{H3972} that was under his hand{H3027}; because the LORD{H3068} was with him, and that which he did{H6213}{(H8802)}, the LORD{H3068} made it to prosper{H6743}{(H8688)}.
- Gen 46:20 : 20 And unto Joseph{H3130} in the land{H776} of Egypt{H4714} were born{H3205}{(H8735)} Manasseh{H4519} and Ephraim{H669}, which Asenath{H621} the daughter{H1323} of Potipherah{H6319} priest{H3548} of On{H204} bare{H3205}{(H8804)} unto him.
- Gen 48:1-9 : 1 And it came to pass after{H310} these things{H1697}, that one told{H559}{(H8799)} Joseph{H3130}, Behold, thy father{H1} is sick{H2470}{(H8802)}: and he took{H3947}{(H8799)} with him his two{H8147} sons{H1121}, Manasseh{H4519} and Ephraim{H669}. 2 And one told{H5046}{(H8686)} Jacob{H3290}, and said{H559}{(H8799)}, Behold, thy son{H1121} Joseph{H3130} cometh{H935}{(H8802)} unto thee: and Israel{H3478} strengthened{H2388}{(H8691)} himself, and sat{H3427}{(H8799)} upon the bed{H4296}. 3 And Jacob{H3290} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto Joseph{H3130}, God{H410} Almighty{H7706} appeared{H7200}{(H8738)} unto me at Luz{H3870} in the land{H776} of Canaan{H3667}, and blessed{H1288}{(H8762)} me, 4 And said{H559}{(H8799)} unto me, Behold, I will make thee fruitful{H6509}{(H8688)}, and multiply{H7235}{(H8689)} thee, and I will make{H5414}{(H8804)} of thee a multitude{H6951} of people{H5971}; and will give{H5414}{(H8804)} this land{H776} to thy seed{H2233} after thee{H310} for an everlasting{H5769} possession{H272}. 5 And now thy two{H8147} sons{H1121}, Ephraim{H669} and Manasseh{H4519}, which were born{H3205}{(H8737)} unto thee in the land{H776} of Egypt{H4714} before{H5704} I came{H935}{(H8800)} unto thee into Egypt{H4714}, are mine; as Reuben{H7205} and Simeon{H8095}, they shall be mine. 6 And thy issue{H4138}, which thou begettest{H3205}{(H8689)} after{H310} them, shall be thine, and shall be called{H7121}{(H8735)} after{H5921} the name{H8034} of their brethren{H251} in their inheritance{H5159}. 7 And as for me, when I came{H935}{(H8800)} from Padan{H6307}, Rachel{H7354} died{H4191}{(H8804)} by me in the land{H776} of Canaan{H3667} in the way{H1870}, when{H5750} yet there was but a little{H3530} way{H776} to come{H935}{(H8800)} unto Ephrath{H672}: and I buried her{H6912}{(H8799)} there in the way{H1870} of Ephrath{H672}; the same is Bethlehem{H1035}. 8 And Israel{H3478} beheld{H7200}{(H8799)} Joseph's{H3130} sons{H1121}, and said{H559}{(H8799)}, Who are these? 9 And Joseph{H3130} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto his father{H1}, They are my sons{H1121}, whom God{H430} hath given{H5414}{(H8804)} me in this place. And he said{H559}{(H8799)}, Bring them{H3947}{(H8798)}, I pray thee, unto me, and I will bless{H1288}{(H8762)} them. 10 Now the eyes{H5869} of Israel{H3478} were dim{H3513}{(H8804)} for age{H2207}, so that he could{H3201}{(H8799)} not see{H7200}{(H8800)}. And he brought them near{H5066}{(H8686)} unto him; and he kissed{H5401}{(H8799)} them, and embraced{H2263}{(H8762)} them. 11 And Israel{H3478} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto Joseph{H3130}, I had not thought{H6419}{(H8765)} to see{H7200}{(H8800)} thy face{H6440}: and, lo, God{H430} hath shewed{H7200}{(H8689)} me also thy seed{H2233}. 12 And Joseph{H3130} brought them out{H3318}{(H8686)} from between{H5973} his knees{H1290}, and he bowed{H7812}{(H8691)} himself with his face{H639} to the earth{H776}. 13 And Joseph{H3130} took{H3947}{(H8799)} them both{H8147}, Ephraim{H669} in his right hand{H3225} toward Israel's{H3478} left hand{H8040}, and Manasseh{H4519} in his left hand{H8040} toward Israel's{H3478} right hand{H3225}, and brought them near{H5066}{(H8686)} unto him. 14 And Israel{H3478} stretched out{H7971}{(H8799)} his right hand{H3225}, and laid{H7896}{(H8799)} it upon Ephraim's{H669} head{H7218}, who was the younger{H6810}, and his left hand{H8040} upon Manasseh's{H4519} head{H7218}, guiding{H7919} his hands{H3027} wittingly{H7919}{(H8765)}; for Manasseh{H4519} was the firstborn{H1060}. 15 And he blessed{H1288}{(H8762)} Joseph{H3130}, and said{H559}{(H8799)}, God{H430}, before{H6440} whom my fathers{H1} Abraham{H85} and Isaac{H3327} did walk{H1980}{(H8694)}, the God{H430} which fed{H7462}{(H8802)} me all my life long{H5750} unto this day{H3117}, 16 The Angel{H4397} which redeemed{H1350}{(H8802)} me from all evil{H7451}, bless{H1288}{(H8762)} the lads{H5288}; and let my name{H8034} be named{H7121}{(H8735)} on them, and the name{H8034} of my fathers{H1} Abraham{H85} and Isaac{H3327}; and let them grow{H1711}{(H8799)} into a multitude{H7230} in the midst{H7130} of the earth{H776}. 17 And when Joseph{H3130} saw{H7200}{(H8799)} that his father{H1} laid{H7896}{(H8799)} his right{H3225} hand{H3027} upon the head{H7218} of Ephraim{H669}, it displeased{H3415}{(H8799)}{H5869} him: and he held up{H8551}{(H8799)} his father's{H1} hand{H3027}, to remove{H5493}{(H8687)} it from Ephraim's{H669} head{H7218} unto Manasseh's{H4519} head{H7218}. 18 And Joseph{H3130} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto his father{H1}, Not so, my father{H1}: for this is the firstborn{H1060}; put{H7760}{(H8798)} thy right hand{H3225} upon his head{H7218}. 19 And his father{H1} refused{H3985}{(H8762)}, and said{H559}{(H8799)}, I know{H3045}{(H8804)} it, my son{H1121}, I know{H3045}{(H8804)} it: he also shall become a people{H5971}, and he also shall be great{H1431}{(H8799)}: but truly{H199} his younger{H6996} brother{H251} shall be greater{H1431}{(H8799)} than he, and his seed{H2233} shall become a multitude{H4393} of nations{H1471}. 20 And he blessed{H1288}{(H8762)} them that day{H3117}, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, In thee shall Israel{H3478} bless{H1288}{(H8762)}, saying{H559}{(H8800)}, God{H430} make{H7760}{(H8799)} thee as Ephraim{H669} and as Manasseh{H4519}: and he set{H7760}{(H8799)} Ephraim{H669} before{H6440} Manasseh{H4519}. 21 And Israel{H3478} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto Joseph{H3130}, Behold, I die{H4191}{(H8801)}: but God{H430} shall be with you, and bring you again{H7725}{(H8689)} unto the land{H776} of your fathers{H1}. 22 Moreover I have given{H5414}{(H8804)} to thee one{H259} portion{H7926} above thy brethren{H251}, which I took{H3947}{(H8804)} out of the hand{H3027} of the Amorite{H567} with my sword{H2719} and with my bow{H7198}.
- Gen 49:22-26 : 22 Joseph{H3130} is a fruitful{H6509}{(H8802)} bough{H1121}, even a fruitful{H6509}{(H8802)} bough{H1121} by a well{H5869}; whose branches{H1323} run{H6805}{(H8804)} over the wall{H7791}: 23 The archers{H1167}{H2671} have sorely grieved him{H4843}{(H8762)}, and shot{H7232}{(H8804)} at him, and hated him{H7852}{(H8799)}: 24 But his bow{H7198} abode{H3427}{(H8799)} in strength{H386}, and the arms{H2220} of his hands{H3027} were made strong{H6339}{(H8799)} by the hands{H3027} of the mighty{H46} God of Jacob{H3290};(from thence is the shepherd{H7462}{(H8802)}, the stone{H68} of Israel{H3478}:) 25 Even by the God{H410} of thy father{H1}, who shall help{H5826}{(H8799)} thee; and by{H854} the Almighty{H7706}, who shall bless{H1288}{(H8762)} thee with blessings{H1293} of heaven{H8064} above{H5920}, blessings{H1293} of the deep{H8415} that lieth{H7257}{(H8802)} under, blessings{H1293} of the breasts{H7699}, and of the womb{H7356}: 26 The blessings{H1293} of thy father{H1} have prevailed{H1396}{(H8804)} above the blessings{H1293} of my progenitors{H2029}{(H8802)} unto the utmost bound{H8379} of the everlasting{H5769} hills{H1389}: they shall be on the head{H7218} of Joseph{H3130}, and on the crown of the head{H6936} of him that was separate{H5139} from his brethren{H251}.
