9. But then he dreamed another dream and told it to his brothers, saying, “I have just dreamed another dream. Suddenly, there was the sun and the moon and the eleven stars bowing down to me!”
10. He told it to his father as well as his brothers. Then his father rebuked him and said to him, “What’s this dream you dreamed? Will we really come—your mother and I with your brothers—to bow down to the ground to you?”
11. So his brothers were jealous of him, but his father kept the speech in mind.
12. Then his brothers went to graze their father’s flocks at Shechem.
13. Israel said to Joseph, “Aren’t your brothers grazing the flocks in Shechem? Come, let me send you to them.” “Here I am,” he said to him.
14. Then he said to him, “Go now, and check on the welfare of your brothers and the welfare of the flocks and bring word back to me.” So he sent him from the valley of Hebron and he went to Shechem.
15. A man found him there, wandering in the field, and the man asked him, “What are you looking for?”
16. “I’m looking for my brothers,” he said. “Please tell me where they’re grazing.”
