1And Iacob dwelt in the land wherein his father was a stranger, in the land of Canaan. 2These are the generations of Iacob: Ioseph being seuenteene yeeres old, was feeding the flocke with his brethren, and the lad was with the sonnes of Bilhah, and with the sonnes of Zilpah, his fathers wiues: and Ioseph brought vnto his father their euill report. 3Now Israel loued Ioseph more then all his children, because he was the sonne of his old age: and he made him a coat of many colours. 4And when his brethren saw that their father loued him more then all his brethren, they hated him, and could not speake peaceably vnto him. 5¶ And Ioseph dreamed a dreame, and he told it his brethren, and they hated him yet the more.
