See how you translated “bowed down” in verse 7. Alternate translation: “were bowing down to the ground”

to=me
Bowing down to someone was a way of showing respect and honor to that person. If that is not clear in your culture, you could make that information explicit in your translation or in a footnote. If it is understood, you can leave it implied (as the Hebrew text does). Alternate translation: “to me to show respect.” or “in front of me to honor me.”
37:9 The sun, moon, and eleven stars: Astrological symbols often represent rulers. The dream predicted Joseph’s elevation to a position of authority over the whole clan of Israel.
