¹⁸ Then his brothers also went and ^(A)fell down before his face, and they said, “Behold, we are your servants.”

^7 (A)There we were, binding sheaves in the field. Then behold, my sheaf arose and also stood upright; and indeed your sheaves stood all around and bowed down to my sheaf.”

⁸ And his brothers said to him, “Shall you indeed reign over us? Or shall you indeed have dominion over us?” So they hated him even more for his dreams and for his words.

⁹ Then he dreamed still another dream and told it to his brothers, and said, “Look, I have dreamed another dream. And this time, ^(B)the sun, the moon, and the eleven stars bowed down to me.”

¹⁰ So he told it to his father and his brothers; and his father rebuked him and said to him, “What is this dream that you have dreamed? Shall your mother and I and ^(C)your brothers indeed come to bow down to the earth before you?” ¹¹ And ^(D)his brothers envied him, but his father ^(E)kept the matter in mind.

³ Then Joseph said to his brothers, ^(A)“I am Joseph; does my father still live?” But his brothers could not answer him, for they were dismayed in his presence.

¹⁴ So Judah and his brothers came to Joseph’s house, and he was still there; and they ^(A)fell before him on the ground.

⁶ Now Joseph was governor ^(A)over the land; and it was he who sold to all the people of the land. And Joseph’s brothers came and ^(B)bowed down before him with their faces to the earth.
