Jacob, Joseph & Egypt

These are sons of Dishan: Uz and Aran.

These are chiefs of the Horite: chief Lotan, chief Shobal, chief Zibeon, chief Anah,

chief Dishon, chief Ezer, chief Dishan: these are chiefs of the Horite in reference to their chiefs in the land of Seir.

And these are the kings who have reigned in the land of Edom before the reigning of a king over the sons of Israel.

And Bela son of Beor reigneth in Edom, and the name of his city is Dinhabah;

and Bela dieth, and reign in his stead doth Jobab son of Zerah from Bozrah;

and Jobab dieth, and reign in his stead doth Husham from the land of the Temanite.

And Husham dieth, and reign in his stead doth Hadad son of Bedad (who smiteth Midian in the field of Moab), and the name of his city is Avith;

and Hadad dieth, and reign in his stead doth Samlah of Masrekah;

and Samlah dieth, and reign in his stead doth Saul from Rehoboth of the River;

and Saul dieth, and reign in his stead doth Baal-hanan son of Achbor;

and Baal-hanan son of Achbor dieth, and reign in his stead doth Hadar, and the name of his city is Pau; and his wife's name is Mehetabel daughter of Matred, daughter of Me-zahab.

And these are the names of the chiefs of Esau, according to their families, according to their places, by their names: chief Timnah, chief Alvah, chief Jetheth,

chief Aholibamah, chief Elah, chief Pinon,

chief Kenaz, chief Teman, chief Mibzar,

chief Magdiel, chief Iram: these are chiefs of Edom, in reference to their dwellings, in the land of their possession; he is Esau father of Edom.

And Jacob dwelleth in the land of his father's sojournings--in the land of Canaan.

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.

And Israel hath loved Joseph more than any of his sons, for he is a son of his old age, and hath made for him a long coat;

and his brethren see that their father hath loved him more than any of his brethren, and they hate him, and have not been able to speak to him peaceably.

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

And he saith unto them, `Hear ye, I pray you, this dream which I have dreamed:

that, lo, we are binding bundles in the midst of the field, and lo, my bundle hath arisen, and hath also stood up, and lo, your bundles are round about, and bow themselves to my bundle.'

And his brethren say to him, `Dost thou certainly reign over us? dost thou certainly rule over us?' and they add still more to hate him, for his dreams, and for his words.

And he dreameth yet another dream, and recounteth it to his brethren, and saith, `Lo, I have dreamed a dream again, and lo, the sun and the moon, and eleven stars, are bowing themselves to me.'
