Two sons X

Thy brother is come

And he called one of the servants, and asked what these things meant.

*****

And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night:

he made the stars also.

**

And the Lord God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had formed.

**

And the man said, The workman whom thou gavest to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I did eat.

And the eyes of them both were opened,

and they knew that they were naked;

and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons.

And Adam knew his wife again; and she bare a son, and called his name Seth: For God, said she, hath appointed me - another seed instead of Abel, whom Cain slew.

And Joseph dreamed - a dream, and he told - it his brethren: and they hated him yet the more.

And Abram said, Behold, to me  - thou hast given no seed: and, lo, one born in my house is mine heir.

And, behold, the word of the Lord came unto him, saying, This shall not be thine heir; but he that shall come forth out of thine own bowels shall be thine heir.

And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them:

and he said unto him,

So shall thy seed be.

and, behold, your sheaves stood round about, and made obeisance to my sheaf.

And his brethren said to him, Shalt thou indeed reign over us? or shalt thou indeed have dominion over us?

And they hated him yet the more for his dreams, and for his words.

***

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.
