Genesis 37:4-11

[4] And when his brethren  saw  that their father  loved  him more than all his brethren,  they hated  him, and could  not speak  peaceably  [5] And Joseph  dreamed  a dream,  and he told  it his brethren:  and they hated  him yet the more.  [6] And he said  unto them, Hear,  which I have dreamed:  [7] For, behold, we were binding  sheaves  in the field,  and, lo, my sheaf  arose,  and also stood upright;  and, behold, your sheaves  stood round about,  and made obeisance  to my sheaf.  [8] And his brethren  said  to him, Shalt thou indeed  over us? or shalt thou indeed  over us? And they hated  him yet the more  for his dreams,  and for his words.  [9] And he dreamed  yet another  dream,  and told  it his brethren,  and said,  Behold, I have dreamed  a dream  more; and, behold, the sun  and the moon  and the eleven  stars  made obeisance  to me. [10] And he told  it to his father,  and to his brethren:  and his father  rebuked  him, and said  unto him, What is this dream  that thou hast dreamed?  Shall I and thy mother  and thy brethren  indeed  to bow down  ourselves to thee to the earth?  [11] And his brethren  envied  him; but his father  observed  the saying.
