Genesis 37:7 in Context — Genesis 37
5 Joseph eut un songe, et il le raconta à ses frères, qui le haïrent encore davantage.
6 Il leur dit: Écoutez donc ce songe que j’ai eu!
7 Nous étions à lier des gerbes au milieu des champs; et voici, ma gerbe se leva et se tint debout, et vos gerbes l’entourèrent et se prosternèrent devant elle.
8 Ses frères lui dirent: Est-ce que tu régneras sur nous? Est-ce que tu nous gouverneras? Et ils le haïrent encore davantage, à cause de ses songes et à cause de ses paroles.
9 Il eut encore un autre songe, et il le raconta à ses frères. Il dit: J’ai eu encore un songe! Et voici, le soleil, la lune et onze étoiles se prosternaient devant moi.
