Genesis 37 Joseph is sold by his brothers

Genesis 37
Joseph is sold by his brothers
1 And Jacob dwelt in the land of his father's travels, in the land of Canaan.
2 These are the generations of Jacob, Joseph, being seventeen years old, he was feeding the flock with his brothers, and he was this young man with the children of Bilha, and with the sons of Zilpah wives of his father; and Joseph brought a bad name to their father.
3 Now Israel loved Joseph more than all his children, because he was the son of his old age; and it made him a coat of many colors.
4 Sell for his brothers that their father loved him more than all his brethren, they hated him, and could not speak peaceably unto him.
5 also dreamed a dream Joseph, who told his brothers; so the more bored.
6 And he said unto them, Hear, I pray you, this dream which I have dreamed:
7 Behold, we were binding sheaves in the field, and behold, my sheaf arose, and also stood upright; and behold, your sheaves stood round about, and made obeisance to my sheaf.
8 Then told his brothers, Yu as indeed reign over us? You indeed have dominion over us? so the more bored him for his dreams and for his words.
9 And he dreamed yet another dream, and told it to his brothers, and said, Behold, I have dreamed a dream, and behold, the sun and the moon, and eleven stars bowed down to me.
10 And he told it to his father and his brothers, scolded his father, and said unto him, What is this dream you dreamed? Perhaps we will come, I and thy mother and thy brethren, to bow down ourselves to thee to the earth?
11 And his brethren envied him: but his father observed this business in his heart.
12 And his brothers went to feed their father's flock in Shechem.
13 He said therefore to Joseph Israel: Do not feed your brothers in Shechem? Come and send thee to them. And he said, Here I am.
14 And he said unto him, Now go and see how are your brothers, and well with the flocks, and bring me word again. So he sent him from the valley of Hebron, and Joseph came to Shechem.
15 And found him a man, because he went astray by the field, and asked the man, saying, What you looking for?
16 And he said, I seek my brethren; tell me, I pray thee, where they feed.
17 And he said that man, They are here; for I heard them say, Let us go to Dothan. Joseph since followed his brothers and found them in Dothan.
18 And they saw him afar off, and before he came near unto them, they conspired against him to slay him.
19 And they said one to another, Behold, there comes the dreamer!
20 Come now, and let us slay him, and cast him into some pit, and we will say: An evil beast has devoured him; and we shall see what will become of his dreams.
21 And Reuben heard it, and delivered him out of their hands, and said, Let us not take his life.
22 And Reuben said to them, Shed no blood; cast him into this pit that is in the wilderness, and lay no hand in it; to deliver him from their hands, and to make it to his father.
23 And it came to pass, when Joseph to his brothers, Joseph took his coat, his coat of many colors that was on him.
24 And they took him, and cast him into a pit; and the pit was empty, there was no water in it.
25 Then they sat down to eat bread: and they lifted up their eyes and looked, and behold, a company of Ishmaelites coming from Gilead, and their camels bearing spices, and balm, and myrrh, and were going to take it to Egypt.
26 Then Judah said to his brothers, What profit is it that we slay our brother and conceal his blood?
27 Come, and we sell him to the Ishmaelites, and let not our hand on him, because he is our brother, our flesh. And his brethren.
Passing 28 as the Midianites merchants took and lifted up Joseph out of the pit, and sold him for twenty pieces of silver to the Ishmaelites, who brought Joseph into Egypt.
29 Making as Reuben will pit, behold, Joseph was not in the pit; then she tore her clothes,
30 And again his brothers, and said, The boy is not; and I, whither shall I go?
31 Then they took Joseph's coat, and killed a goat, and dipped the coat in the blood.
32 And they sent the coat of many colors, and they did take it to his father, and said, We have found this coat; You know now whether it will be or not the coat of his son.
33 And he knew it, and said, It is my son's coat; an evil beast hath devoured; Joseph was certainly shattered.
34 And Jacob rent his clothes, and put sackcloth upon his loins, and mourned for his son many days.
35 And they raised all his children and all his daughters to comfort; but he refused to be comforted, and said, Indeed with weeping I will go down to my son to the grave. So cried his father.
36 And the Midianites sold him into Egypt to Potiphar, a eunuch of Pharaoh, captain of the guard.
