KJV ³ 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.

VULC ³ Israël autem diligebat Joseph super omnes filios suos, eo quod in senectute genuisset eum : fecitque ei tunicam polymitam.

KJV ⁴ 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.

VULC ⁴ Videntes autem fratres ejus quod a patre plus cunctis filiis amaretur, oderant eum, nec poterant ei quidquam pacifice loqui.

KJV ⁵ And Joseph dreamed a dream, and he told it his brethren: and they hated him yet the more.

VULC ⁵ Accidit quoque ut visum somnium referret fratribus suis : quæ causa majoris odii seminarium fuit.

KJV ⁶ And he said unto them, Hear, I pray you, this dream which I have dreamed:

VULC ⁶ Dixitque ad eos : Audite somnium meum quod vidi :

KJV ⁷ For, behold, we were binding sheaves in the field, and, lo, my sheaf arose, and also stood upright; and, behold, your sheaves stood round about, and made obeisance to my sheaf.

VULC ⁷ putabam nos ligare manipulos in agro : et quasi consurgere manipulum meum, et stare, vestrosque manipulos circumstantes adorare manipulum meum.

KJV ⁸ 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.

VULC ⁸ Responderunt fratres ejus : Numquid rex noster eris ? aut subjiciemur ditioni tuæ ? Hæc ergo causa somniorum atque sermonum, invidiæ et odii fomitem ministravit.

KJV ⁹ 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.

VULC ⁹ Aliud quoque vidit somnium, quod narrans fratribus, ait : Vidi per somnium, quasi solem, et lunam, et stellas undecim adorare me.

KJV ¹⁰ 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?

VULC ¹⁰ Quod cum patri suo, et fratribus retulisset, increpavit eum pater suus, et dixit : Quid sibi vult hoc somnium quod vidisti ? num ego et mater tua, et fratres tui adorabimus te super terram ?

KJV ¹¹ And his brethren envied him; but his father observed the saying.

VULC ¹¹ Invidebant ei igitur fratres sui : pater vero rem tacitus considerabat.

KJV ¹² And his brethren went to feed their father's flock in Shechem.

VULC ¹² Cumque fratres illius in pascendis gregibus patris morarentur in Sichem,

KJV ¹³ And Israel said unto Joseph, Do not thy brethren feed the flock in Shechem? come, and I will send thee unto them. And he said to him, Here am I.

VULC ¹³ dixit ad eum Israël : Fratres tui pascunt oves in Sichimis : veni, mittam te ad eos. Quo respondente,

KJV ¹⁴ And he said to him, Go, I pray thee, see whether it be well with thy brethren, and well with the flocks; and bring me word again. So he sent him out of the vale of Hebron, and he came to Shechem.

VULC ¹⁴ Præsto sum, ait ei : Vade, et vide si cuncta prospera sint erga fratres tuos, et pecora : et renuntia mihi quid agatur. Missus de valle Hebron, venit in Sichem :

KJV ¹⁵ And a certain man found him, and, behold, he was wandering in the field: and the man asked him, saying, What seekest thou?

VULC ¹⁵ invenitque eum vir errantem in agro, et interrogavit quid quæreret.

KJV ¹⁶ And he said, I seek my brethren: tell me, I pray thee, where they feed their flocks.

VULC ¹⁶ At ille respondit : Fratres meos quæro : indica mihi ubi pascant greges.

KJV ¹⁷ And the man said, They are departed hence; for I heard them say, Let us go to Dothan. And Joseph went after his brethren, and found them in Dothan.

VULC ¹⁷ Dixitque ei vir : Recesserunt de loco isto : audivi autem eos dicentes : Eamus in Dothain. Perrexit ergo Joseph post fratres suos, et invenit eos in Dothain.

KJV ¹⁸ And when they saw him afar off, even before he came near unto them, they conspired against him to slay him.

VULC ¹⁸ Qui cum vidissent eum procul, antequam accederet ad eos, cogitaverunt illum occidere :

KJV ¹⁹ And they said one to another, Behold, this dreamer cometh.

VULC ¹⁹ et mutuo loquebantur : Ecce somniator venit :
