And she called his name Joseph. And she said, May Jehovah add another son to me.

And when Rachel had borne Joseph, it happened that Jacob said to Laban, Send me away so that I may go into my own place and to my country.

And he put the slave women and their children first, and Leah and her children afterward, and Rachel and Joseph last.

And Leah also, and her children, came near and bowed themselves. And afterward Joseph and Rachel came near and bowed.

The sons of Rachel: Joseph and Benjamin.

These are the generations of Jacob: Joseph, a son of seventeen years, came tending the flock with his brothers. And he was a youth with the sons of Bilhah, and with the sons of Zilpah, his father's wives. And Joseph brought to his father an evil report of them.

And Israel loved Joseph more than all his sons, because he was the son of his old age. And he made him a tunic reaching to the soles of his feet.

And Joseph dreamed a dream and told it to his brothers. And they hated him still more.

And Israel said to Joseph, Do not your brothers feed the flock in Shechem? Come, and I will send you to them. And he said to him, Here I am.

And the man said, They are gone from here, for I heard them say, Let us go to Dothan. And Joseph went after his brothers, and found them in Dothan.

And it happened when Joseph had come to his brothers, they stripped Joseph out of his tunic, the tunic reaching to the soles of his feet that was on him.

And men, Midianites traders, came by. And they drew up Joseph and took him out of the pit, and sold Joseph to the Ishmaelites for twenty pieces of silver. And they brought Joseph into Egypt.

And Reuben returned to the pit. And behold! Joseph was not in the pit! And he tore his clothes.

And they took Joseph's tunic, and killed a kid of the goats, and dipped the tunic in the blood.

And he knew it, and said, It is my son's tunic. An evil beast has eaten him. Joseph is without doubt torn in pieces.

And Joseph was brought down to Egypt. And Potiphar, a eunuch of Pharaoh, the chief of the executioners, an Egyptian man, bought him from the Ishmaelites who had brought him down there.

And Jehovah was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man. And he was in the house of his master the Egyptian.

And Joseph found grace in his sight, and he served him. And he made him overseer over his house, and he put into his hand all he had.

And it happened from the time he had made him overseer in his house, and over all he had, that Jehovah blessed the Egyptian's house for Joseph's sake. And the blessing of Jehovah was upon all that he had, in the house and in the field.

And he left all that he had in Joseph's hand. And he did not know anything that he had, except the bread which he ate. And Joseph was beautiful in form and beautiful in appearance.

And after these things it happened that his master's wife cast her eyes upon Joseph. And she said, Lie with me.

And it happened as she spoke to Joseph day by day, that he did not listen to her to lie with her, or to be with her.

And Joseph's master took him and put him in the prison, a place where the king's prisoners were bound. And he was there in the prison.

But Jehovah was with Joseph, and showed him mercy, and gave him favor in the sight of the keeper of the prison.

And the keeper of the prison gave all the prisoners in the prison into Joseph's hand. And whatever they did there, he was the doer of it.

And he put them under guard in the house of the chief of the executioners, into the prison, the place where Joseph was bound.

And the chief of the executioners charged Joseph with them, and he served them. And they continued for a time under guard.

And Joseph came in to them in the morning, and looked upon them, and behold, they were sad.

And they said to him, We have dreamed a dream, and there is no interpreter of it. And Joseph said to them, Do not interpretations belong to God? Now tell it to me.

And the chief cupbearer told his dream to Joseph, and said to him, In my dream, behold, a vine was before me.

And Joseph said to him, This is the interpretation of it. The three branches are three days.

When the chief baker saw the interpretation was good, he said to Joseph, I also saw in my dream, and three baskets of white bread were on my head.

And Joseph answered and said, This is the interpretation of it. The three baskets are three days.

But he hanged the chief baker, even as Joseph had interpreted to them.

Yet the chief cupbearer did not remember Joseph, but forgot him.

Then Pharaoh sent and called Joseph. And they hurried him out of the dungeon. And he shaved and changed his clothing, and came in to Pharaoh.

And Pharaoh said to Joseph, I have dreamed a dream, and none can interpret it. And I have heard it about you, saying, you can understand a dream to interpret it.

And Joseph answered Pharaoh, saying, Not I. God shall answer the welfare of Pharaoh.

And Pharaoh said to Joseph, In my dream, behold! I stood upon the bank of the river.

And Joseph said to Pharaoh, The dream of Pharaoh is one. God has shown Pharaoh what He is about to do.

And Pharaoh said to Joseph, Since God has shown you all this, no one is as discreet and wise as you.

And Pharaoh said to Joseph, See, I have set you over all the land of Egypt.

And Pharaoh took off his ring from his hand, and put it upon Joseph's hand. And he dressed him with fine linen robes, and put a gold chain around his neck.

And Pharaoh said to Joseph, I am Pharaoh, and without a word from you, no man shall lift up his hand or foot in all the land of Egypt.

And Pharaoh called Joseph's name Zaphnath-paaneah. And he gave him Asenath, the daughter of Potipherah, priest of On, for his wife. And Joseph went out over the land of Egypt.

And Joseph was thirty years old when he stood before Pharaoh king of Egypt. And Joseph went out from before Pharaoh, and went throughout all the land of Egypt.

And Joseph gathered grain like the sand of the sea, very much, until he quit numbering it; for it was without number.

And two sons were born to Joseph before the years of famine came, whom Asenath the daughter of Potipherah priest of On bore to him.

And Joseph called the name of the first-born Manasseh, saying, For God has made me forget all my toil and all my father's house.

And the seven years of famine began to come, according as Joseph had said. And the famine was in all lands, but in all the land of Egypt there was bread.

And when all the land of Egypt was famished, the people cried to Pharaoh for bread. And Pharaoh said to all the Egyptians, Go to Joseph. What he says to you, do.

And the famine was over all the face of the earth. And Joseph opened all the storehouses, and sold to the Egyptians. And the famine was severe on the land of Egypt.

And all the earth came into Egypt to buy, to Joseph, because the famine was severe in all the earth.

And Joseph's ten brothers went down to buy grain in Egypt.

But Benjamin, Joseph's brother, Jacob did not send with his brothers. For he said, Lest perhaps mischief happen to him.

And Joseph was the potentate over the land. He was the one selling to all the people of the earth. And Joseph's brothers came and bowed down themselves before him, their faces to the earth.

And Joseph saw his brothers, and he knew them, but remained a stranger to them, and spoke roughly to them. And he said to them, Where do you come from? And they said, From the land of Canaan to buy food.

And Joseph knew his brothers, but they did not know him.

And Joseph remembered the dreams which he dreamed of them, and said to them, You are spies! You have come to see the nakedness of the land.

And Joseph said to them, That is what I spoke to you, saying, You are spies!

And Joseph said to them the third day, Do this and live. I fear God.

And they did not know that Joseph understood, for the interpreter was between them.

Then Joseph commanded their sacks to be filled with grain, and returned their silver, each into his sack, and to give them provision for the way. And so he did to them.

And Jacob their father said to them, You have bereaved me. Joseph is not, and Simeon is not, and you will take Benjamin. All these things are against me.

And the men took that present, and they took double silver in their hand, and Benjamin. And they rose up and went down to Egypt, and stood before Joseph.

And when Joseph saw Benjamin with them, he said to the ruler of his house, Bring the men into the house, and kill an animal and make ready. For the men shall dine with me at noon.

And the man did as Joseph said. And the man brought the men into Joseph's house.

And the men were afraid, because they were brought into Joseph's house. And they said, Because of the silver that was returned in our sacks at the first time we are brought in, to throw himself on us, and fall upon us, and take us for bondmen, and our asses.

And they came near to the man over Joseph's house, and they talked with him at the door of the house,

And the man brought the men into Joseph's house, and gave them water, and they washed their feet. And he gave fodder to their asses.

And they made ready the presents for the coming of Joseph at noon. For they heard that they should eat bread there.

And when Joseph came home, they brought him the present in their hand into the house, and bowed themselves to him to the earth.

And Joseph made haste, for his bowels yearned toward his brother. And he sought a place to weep. And he entered into his room and wept there.

And put my cup, the silver cup, in the mouth of the sack of the youngest, and his grain silver. And he did according to the word that Joseph had spoken.

They had gone out of the city, not having gone far. And Joseph said to his steward, Rise up, follow after the men and overtake them, and say to them, Why have you rewarded evil for good?

And Judah and his brothers came to Joseph's house, for he was still there. And they fell before him to the earth.

And Joseph said to them, What deed is this that you have done? Do you not know that one like me can certainly divine?

Then Joseph could not control himself before all those who stood by him. And he cried, Cause every man to go out from me! And no man stood before him while Joseph made himself known to his brothers.

And Joseph said to his brothers, I am Joseph. Is my father still alive? And his brothers could not answer him, for they were troubled at his presence.

And Joseph said to his brothers, Please come near me. And they came near. And he said, I am Joseph your brother, whom you sold into Egypt.

Hurry and go up to my father and say to him, So says your son Joseph, God has made me lord of all Egypt. Come down to me, do not wait.

And the report was heard in Pharaoh's house, saying, Joseph's brothers have come. And it was good in the eyes of Pharaoh, and of his servants.

And Pharaoh said to Joseph, Say to your brothers, Do this: load your beasts and go into the land of Canaan,

And the sons of Israel did so. And Joseph gave them wagons according to the command of Pharaoh, and gave them provision for the way.

And they told him, saying, Joseph is still alive, and he is governor over all the land of Egypt. And Jacob's heart fainted, for he did not believe them.

And they told him all the words of Joseph, which he had said to them. And when he saw the wagons which Joseph had sent to carry him, the spirit of Jacob their father revived.

And Israel said, It is enough. Joseph my son is still alive. I will go and see him before I die.

I will go down with you into Egypt, and I will also surely bring you up again. And Joseph shall put his hand on your eyes.

The sons of Rachel, Jacob's wife, were Joseph and Benjamin.

And to Joseph in the land of Egypt were born Manasseh and Ephraim, whom Asenath the daughter of Potipherah the priest of On bore him.

And the sons of Joseph, who were born to him in Egypt, were two souls. All the souls of the house of Jacob, who came into Egypt, were seventy.

And he sent Judah before him to Joseph, to direct his face to Goshen.

And Joseph made his chariot ready, and went up to meet Israel his father, to Goshen, and presented himself to him. And he fell on his neck, and wept on his neck a good while.

And Israel said to Joseph, Now let me die, since I have seen your face, because you are still alive.

And Joseph said to his brothers and to his father's house, I will go up and show Pharaoh, and say to him, My brothers and my father's house, who were in the land of Canaan, have come to me.

Then Joseph came and told Pharaoh, and said, My father and my brothers, and their flocks, and their herds, and all that they have, have come out of the land of Canaan.

And Pharaoh spoke to Joseph, saying, Your father and your brothers have come to you.

And Joseph brought in Jacob his father, and set him before Pharaoh. And Jacob blessed Pharaoh.

And Joseph placed his father and his brothers, and gave them a possession in the land of Egypt, in the best of the land, in the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh commanded.

And Joseph nourished his father and his brothers, and all his father's household, with bread, for the mouth of the little ones.
