Genesis 37:1-4

The Generations of Jacob

Now Jacob lived in ^athe land ¹where his father had sojourned, in the land of Canaan. 2 These are the generations of Jacob.
Joseph, when ^aseventeen years of age, was pasturing the flock with his brothers while he was still a youth, along with ^bthe sons of Bilhah and the sons of Zilpah, his father’s wives. And Joseph brought back an ^cevil report about them to their father. 3 Now Israel loved Joseph more than all his sons because he was ^athe son of his old age; and he made him a ¹^bvaricolored tunic. 4 And his brothers saw that their father loved him more than all his brothers, and so they ^ahated him and could not speak to him in peace.
