“Here comes that dreamer!” they said to one another.
In a dream he saw a stairway standing on the earth. Its top reached to heaven. The angels of God were going up and coming down on it.
His brothers were jealous of him. But his father kept the dreams in mind.
But they saw him a long way off. Before he reached them, they made plans to kill him.
“Come. Let’s kill him. Let’s throw him into one of these empty wells. Let’s say that a wild animal ate him up. Then we’ll see whether his dreams will come true.”
Joseph had a dream. When he told it to his brothers, they hated him even more.
Mean people shot arrows at him. They shot at him because they were angry.
