Joseph Dreams of Greatness

1 Now Jacob dwelt in the land awhere his father was a stranger, in the land of Canaan.  
2 This is the history of Jacob. Joseph, being seventeen years old, was feeding the flock with his brothers. And the lad was with the sons of Bilhah and the sons of Zilpah, his father’s wives; and Joseph brought a abad report of them to his father.  
3 Now Israel loved Joseph more than all his children, because he was athe son of his old age. Also he bmade him a tunic of many colors.  
4 But when his brothers saw that their father loved him more than all his brothers, they ahated him and could not speak peaceably to him.  
5 Now Joseph had a dream, and he told it to his brothers; and they hated him even more.
