Joseph - King of Dreams Page #2

Synopsis: When Joseph receives a beautiful coat from his parents, his eleven brothers hate him even more, and are driven to sell him to desert merchants, who take him to Egypt. There he is made the servant of a wealthy Egyptian who misunderstands him, and has him thrown into prison. He shows his God-given gift by interpreting the dreams of two other prisoners. Eventually, the Pharaoh begins to be plagued by dreams, and sends for Joseph, who interprets them and saves Egypt in the process. He is made second in command to Pharaoh, and has most of Egypt's grain stored. Eventually his brothers arrive in Egypt to buy food because of famine, and he must forgive them. Then the dreams that had angered his brothers, were in reality prophecies that had come from God.

- What?

Are you making fun of me too?

- (Bleating)

- (Laughs)

- (Bleats)

- Hey! Hey, come back!

- (Growling)

- Huh?

- (Growling)

- (Gasps)

Get away! Get away!

(Bleating)

(Wolves barking)

- Gotcha!

- (Wolves snarling)

(Whimpers)

Back! Back!

- Get away!

- (Growling)

(Sighs)

Joseph, are you hurt?

Father! (Panting)

Your brothers, where are they?

I asked you a question!

They're...they're, uh...

They...they went swimming.

- Swimming?

- (Panting)

- What happened?

- This is how you take charge?

I expect you to watch out for Joseph,

but you abandoned my son!

- My son!

- Aren't we your sons too?

- The ram!

- (Bleats)

- (Jingles)

- (Brother) It's Joseph's dream!

Wolves kill sheep.

It happens all the time.

No! I understand.

God sent you a vision of the future.

Joseph didn't really

see the future, did he?

Let's get back to work.

(Insects chirping)

(Grunts)

(Squawking)

Why do we wash before work?

We don't want the sheep smelling you!

(Laughing) Look who finally woke up.

- Look what the sun brought up.

- Nice of you to join us.

Good morning, Joseph.

Mom, last night I had another dream.

- Oh, another dream!

- Ooh!

- I wasn't talking to you.

- Please, why don't you share it?

Who'd the wolf get this time?

You can laugh, but it was about you.

Oh, please, you must tell us

our future, great Joseph!

- Leave me alone!

- Come on, tell us.

We're dying to hear about it.

We were carrying sheaves of wheat.

I was among you,

but then all of a sudden I was above

you and your wheat bowed to me...

- I wonder what that means.

- Nothing, that's what.

Hey, you asked to hear the dream.

What happened next?

The sky was dark

and all around me were stars

- They were bowing to me too.

- Ooh! Let's all bow down to Joseph!

We can't ignore these dreams.

After all, his last one came true.

Are you saying that Joseph belongs

above all of us, even Judah?

I'm not saying that,

but there could be a message here.

Judah's led the herd for years,

brought in the wheat...

He comes first before any of us -

especially Joseph.

Judah, it's not up to me.

God may be telling us

something of our future.

- Then my work doesn't matter.

- Watch your tongue.

Jacob, Judah, please!

- I've had enough of this.

- Let's go.

(Sighs) Look at

what your dreams have done.

Don't get mad at me.

I didn't ask for them.

- Or this either, brother!

- Half-brother!

Joseph! Boys!

Apologise to each other!

Let me talk to Joseph.

(Jacob) He's just a boy.

You're too harsh on him.

You're always defending him!

(Jacob) His dreams come from God.

Joseph, you need to be

more understanding of your brothers.

Life is harder for them

than it will be for you.
