Genesis 37:20-28

20And nowH6258 come and let us killH2026 him, and castH7993 him into oneH259 of the pitsH953, and we will sayH559, An evilH7451 beast has devouredH398 him; and we will seeH7200 what becomesH1961 of his dreamsH2472.

21And ReubenH7205 heardH8085 [it], and deliveredH5337 him out of their handH3027, and saidH559, Let us not take his lifeH5315.

22And ReubenH7205 saidH559 to them, ShedH8210 no bloodH1818: castH7993 him into this pitH953 which is in the wildernessH4057; but lay no handH3027 upon him — in order that he might deliverH5337 him out of their handH3027, to bringH7725 him to his fatherH1 again.

23And it cameH935 to pass when JosephH3130 cameH935 to his brethren, that they strippedH6584 JosephH3130 of his vest, the vest of many colours, which he had on;

24and they tookH3947 him and castH7993 him into the pitH953; now the pitH953 was emptyH7386 — there was no waterH4325 in it.

25And they satH3427 downH3381 to eatH398 breadH3899; and they liftedH5375 up their eyesH5869 and lookedH7200, and behold, a caravan of IshmaelitesH3459 cameH935 from GileadH1568; and their camelsH1581 boreH5375 tragacanth, and balsam, and ladanum — goingH1980 to carryH5375 [it] downH3381 to EgyptH4714.

26And JudahH3063 saidH559 to his brethren, What profitH1215 is it that we killH2026 our brotherH251 and secrete his bloodH1818?

27Come and let us sellH4376 him to the IshmaelitesH3459; but let not our handH3027 beH1961 upon him; for he is our brotherH251, our fleshH1320. And his brethren hearkened [to him].

28And Midianitish menH376, merchants, passedH5674 by; and they drewH4900 and lifted up JosephH3130 out of the pitH953, and soldH4376 JosephH3130 to the IshmaelitesH3459 for twentyH6242 silver-pieces; and they broughtH935 JosephH3130 to EgyptH4714.
