Monthly Scripture Reading Genesis 37 |
| And Jacob dwelt in the land wherein his father was a stranger, in the land of Canaan. |
| These are the generations of Jacob. Joseph, being seventeen years old, was feeding the flock with his brethren; and the lad was with the sons of Bilhah, and with the sons of Zilpah, his father’s wives: and Joseph brought unto his father their evil report. |
| Now Israel loved Joseph more than all his children, because he was the son of his old age: and he made him a coat of many colors. |
| And when his brethren saw that their father loved him more than all his brethren, they hated him, and could not speak peaceably unto him. |
| And Joseph dreamed a dream, and he told it his brethren: and they hated him yet the more. |
| And he said unto them, Hear, I pray you, this dream which I have dreamed: |
| For, behold, we were binding sheaves in the field, and, lo, my sheaf arose, and also stood upright; and, behold, your sheaves stood round about, and made obeisance to my sheaf. |
