Genesis 37:23-25

23So it came about, when Joseph 1reached his brothers, that they stripped Joseph of his 2tunic, the varicolored tunic that was on him; 24and they took him and threw him into the pit. Now the pit was empty, without any water in it.

25Then they sat down to eat 3a meal. And as they raised their eyes and looked, behold, a caravan of 4Ishmaelites was coming from Gilead, with their camels bearing 56aromatic gum and 78balm and 9myrrh, 10on their way to bring them down to Egypt.
