betwixt drove and drove.

his servants in separate herds and told them, “Go on
ahead of me, and keep some distance between the herds.”

appease him with the present that goeth before me, and afterward I will see
his face;

appease Esau with the gift that is going before me. After that I can face him, and perhaps he will accept me.”

graciously given your servant.”

his servant: and I will lead on softly, according as the cattle that goeth before me and the children be able to
endure, until I come unto my lord unto
Seir.
Please let my lord go
ahead of

clave unto Dinah the daughter of Jacob, and he loved the
damsel, and spake kindly unto the
damsel.

girl and spoke to her tenderly.

his father Hamor, saying, Get me this
damsel to wife.

girl as a wife.”

defiled Dinah
his daughter: now
his sons were with

his peace until they were come.

defiled his daughter Dinah, but since
his sons were with
his livestock in the field, he remained silent about it until they returned.

Shechem longeth for your daughter: I pray you give her him to wife.

Shechem longs for your daughter. Please give her to him as
his wife.
And the sons of Jacob answered
Shechem and Hamor
his father
deceitfully, and said, because he had
defiled Dinah their sister:
And their words pleased Hamor, and
Shechem Hamor’s son.
Their offer seemed good to Hamor and
his son
Shechem.
And the young man
deferred not to do the thing, because he had delight in Jacob’s daughter: and he was more honourable than all the house of
his father.
The young man, who was the most respected of all
his father’s household, did not
hesitate to
fulfill this request, because he was delighted with Jacob’s daughter.
And Hamor and
Shechem his son came unto the gate of their city, and communed with the men of their city, saying,
So Hamor and
his son
Shechem went to the gate of their city and addressed the men of their city:
And unto Hamor and unto
Shechem his son
hearkened all that went out of the gate of
his city; and every male was
circumcised, all that went out of the gate of
his city.
And it came to pass on the third day, when they were
sore, that two of the sons of Jacob,
Simeon and Levi, Dinah’s brethren, took each man
his sword, and came upon the city boldly, and
slew all the males.
Three days later, while they were still in pain, two of Jacob’s sons (Dinah’s brothers
Simeon and Levi) took their swords, went into the
unsuspecting city, and slaughtered every male.

Purify yourselves and change your garments.
And he built there an altar, and called the place El-beth-el: because there God appeared unto him, when he fled from the face of his brother.

his brother.

And God said to him, “Though your name is Jacob, you will no longer be called Jacob. Instead, your name will be Israel.” So God named him Israel.

his brother Jacob.

Esau took
his wives and sons and daughters and all the people of
his household, along with
his livestock, all
his other animals, and all the property he had acquired in
Canaan, and he moved to a land far away from
his brother Jacob.
And these are the children of Zibeon; both Ajah, and Anah: this was that Anah that found the mules in the wilderness, as he fed the
asses of Zibeon
his father.
These are the sons of Zibeon: Aiah and Anah. (This is the Anah who found the hot springs in the wilderness as he was pasturing the

his father had resided, 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.
This is the account of Jacob. When Joseph was seventeen years old, he was tending the flock with
his brothers, the sons of
his father’s wives
Bilhah and Zilpah, and he brought their father a bad report about them.
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 colours.
Now Israel loved Joseph more than
his other sons, because Joseph had been born to him in
his old age; so he made him a
robe 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.
When Joseph’s brothers saw that their father loved him more than any of them, they
hated him and could not speak a kind word to him.
And Joseph dreamed a dream, and he told it
his brethren: and they
hated him yet the more.
Then Joseph had a dream, and when he told it to
his brothers, they
hated him even more.
And
his brethren said to him, Shalt thou indeed reign over us? or shalt thou indeed have dominion over us? And they
hated him yet the more for
his dreams, and for
his words.
“Do you intend to reign over us?”
his brothers asked. “Will you actually rule us?” So they
hated him even more because of
his dream and
his statements.
And he dreamed yet another dream, and told it
his brethren, and said, Behold, I have dreamed a dream more; and, behold, the sun and the moon and the eleven stars made
obeisance to me.
Then Joseph had another dream and told it to his brothers. “Look,” he said, “I had another dream, and this time the sun and moon and eleven stars were bowing down to me.”
And he told it to
his father, and to
his brethren: and
his father
rebuked him, and said unto him, What is this dream that thou hast dreamed? Shall I and thy mother and thy brethren indeed come to bow down ourselves to thee to the earth?
He told
his father and brothers, but
his father
rebuked him and said, “What is this dream that you have had? Will your mother and brothers and I actually come and bow down to the ground before you?”
And
his brethren
envied him; but
his father observed the saying.
And
his brothers were
jealous of him, but
his father kept in mind what he had said.
