Amplified 2015 Translator's Notes:
Literal renderings, alternate translations or explanations.

In both vv 5 and 8 "hated him even more" is properly translated, but there is an interesting play on words. The literal Hebrew says, "they added to hate"--the Hebrew word for "added" is the same for the word for Joseph--"they 'Josephed' their hate for him."
