AT that time Joseph said unto his brother. Hear I pray you a dream1 that I dreamed. Behold we ware making of sheaves in the field: and see / my sheaf arose and stood upright / and your sheaves stood round about & made an obeisance unto my sheaf. Then said his brethren unto him what shalt thou be our king / or shalt thou raynge over us? And they hated him the more for his dream and for his words. And he dreamed yet another dream and told it his brethren. And he said: behold / I dreamed yet another dream / Me thought the sun and the moon and eleven stars did worship me. And when he had told it his father and his brethren / his father rebuked him and said unto him: what meaneth this dream which thou hast dreamed? shall I come and thy mother and thy brethren and fall before the on the ground? And though his brethren hated him: yet his father kept the thing in mind. And when his brethren were gone to pasture their fathers sheep at Shechem / Israel said to Joseph: do not thy brethren feed the sheep at Shechem? come that I may send y• to them And he said: here am I. And he said: go good son and see whether it be well with thy brethren and with the sheep / and bring me ⟨image 412⟩word again. And he sent him out of the valley of hebron for to goo to Shechem. And a man found him wandering in the field & axed him saying: what seekest thou? And he said / I seek my brethren: tell me I pray thee / where feed they? And the man said: they are departed hence. For I hard them say: let us go to Dothan And when they saw him a far of / and ere he drew nigh them / they contrived to slay him And they said one to another: behold / this dreamer cometh. But now come & let us kill him and cast him into a sand pit / & say some cruel beast hath devoured him / and let us see whereto his dreams will come. When R ben hard that / he would have rid him out of their hands / and said: let us not kill him.
