And Jacob lived in the land of his father's travels, in the land of Canaan.

These are the generations of Jacob: Joseph, a son of seventeen years, was feeding the flock with his brothers, with Bilhah's sons and with Zilpah's sons, his father's wives. And he was a youth. And Joseph brought an evil report of them to their father.

And Israel loved Joseph more than all his sons, because he was a son of old age to him. And he made a robe reaching to the soles of his feet.

And his brothers saw that their father loved him more than all his brothers, and they hated him. And they were not able to speak to him for peace.
