Joseph H3130, when seventeen H7651 H6240 years H8141 of age H1121, was pasturing H7462 the flock H6629 with his brothers H251 while he was still a youth H5288, along with the sons H1121 of Bilhah H1090 and the sons H1121 of Zilpah H2153, his father’s H1 wives H802. And Joseph H3130 brought H935 back an evil H1681 H7451 report H1681 about them to their father H1.
Then he [fn]had H2492 still H5750 another H312 dream H2472 and recounted H5608 it to his brothers H251 and said H559, “Behold H2009, I have [fn]had H2492 still H5750 another dream H2472; and behold H2009, the sun H8121 and the moon H3394 and eleven H259 H6240 stars H3556 were bowing H2331 down H2331 to me.”
And they sat H3427 down H3427 to eat H398 [fn]a meal H3899. Then they lifted H5375 up H5375 their eyes H5869 and saw H7200, and behold H2009, a caravan H736 of Ishmaelites H3459 was coming H935 from Gilead H1568, with their camels H1581 bearing H5375 [fn]aromatic H5219 gum H5219 and [fn]balm H6875 and [fn]myrrh H3910, going H1980 to bring H3381 them down H3381 to Egypt H4714.
