These [are] births of Jacob: Joseph, a son of seventeen years, hath been enjoying himself with his brethren among the flock, (and he [is] a youth,) with the sons of Bilhah, and with the sons of Zilpah, his father's wives, and Joseph bringeth in an account of their evil unto their father.


Јаков и Јосиф

And Joseph dreameth a dream, and declareth to his brethren, and they add still more to hate him.
