Sleepy Scriptures One-Year Bible | Week 5: Part 3 | Genesis 33–40 (KJV) | The Story of Joseph Begins
Welcome to another tranquil episode of the Sleepy Scriptures One-Year Bible, where the King James Version is read softly with gentle background music to help you find peace, reflection, and rest in God’s Word.
Tonight, we continue our journey through Genesis chapters 33 through 40, where themes of forgiveness, faithfulness, and divine purpose unfold. We witness Jacob’s heartfelt reunion with Esau, a moment of grace after years of separation and fear. We follow Joseph, the favored son of Jacob, as his dreams spark jealousy among his brothers, setting in motion one of the most remarkable stories of providence in Scripture.
Even when betrayed, sold into slavery, and falsely accused, Joseph remains steadfast, proving that God’s plan often works through hardship and waiting. As you listen, allow these timeless passages to remind you that God’s purposes prevail—even when unseen—and His presence is with you in every chapter of your life.
Highlighted Verses:
- Genesis 33:4 — “And Esau ran to meet him, and embraced him… and they wept.”
- Genesis 35:3 — “And let us arise, and go up to Bethel… who answered me in the day of my distress.”
- Genesis 37:5 — “And Joseph dreamed a dream, and he told it his brethren: and they hated him yet the more.”
- Genesis 39:2 — “And the Lord was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man.”
- Genesis 39:21 — “But the Lord was with Joseph, and shewed him mercy.”
Breathe deeply, rest your mind, and let the story of God’s faithfulness soothe your spirit as you drift into peaceful sleep.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
