Genesis 37:9–13 · Berean Standard Bible

9 Then Joseph had another dream and told it to his brothers. “Look,” he said, “I had another dream, and this time the sun and moon and eleven stars were bowing down to me.”

10 He told his father and brothers, but his father rebuked him and said, “What is this dream that you have had? Will your mother and brothers and I actually come and bow down to the ground before you?”

11 And his brothers were jealous of him, but his father kept in mind what he had said.

12 Some time later, Joseph’s brothers had gone to pasture their father’s flocks near Shechem.

13 Israel said to him, “Are not your brothers pasturing the flocks at Shechem? Get ready; I am sending you to them.” “I am ready,” Joseph replied.
