Genesis 37:12 in Context — Genesis 37

10 E contou-o a seu pai e a seus irmãos: e seu pai lhe repreendeu, e disse-lhe: Que sonho é este que sonhaste? Viremos eu e tua mãe, e teus irmãos, a nos inclinarmos a ti em terra?

11 E seus irmãos lhe tinham inveja, mas seu pai guardava isso em mente.

12 E foram seus irmãos a apascentar as ovelhas de seu pai em Siquém.

13 E disse Israel a José: Teus irmãos apascentam as ovelhas em Siquém: vem, e te enviarei a eles. E ele respondeu: Eis-me aqui.

14 E ele lhe disse: Vai agora, olha como estão teus irmãos e como estão as ovelhas, e traze-me a resposta. E enviou-o do vale de Hebrom, e chegou a Siquém.
