Genesis 37:18 Context
16And he said, I seeke my brethren: tell me, I pray thee, where they feede their flockes. 17And the man said, They are departed hence: for I heard them say, Let vs goe to Dothan. And Ioseph went after his brethren, and found them in Dothan. 18And when they saw him a farre off, euen before he came neere vnto them, they conspired against him, to slay him. 19And they said one to another, Behold, this dreamer commeth. 20Come now therefore, and let vs slay him, and cast him into some pit, and we will say, Some euill beast hath deuoured him: and we shall see what will become of his dreames.
