23So it cameH1961 about, whenH3512 JosephH3130 1reachedH935 his brothersH251, that they strippedH6584 JosephH3130 of his 2tunicH3801, the varicoloredH6446 tunicH3801 that was on him; 24and they tookH3947 him and threwH7993 him into the pitH953. Now the pitH953 was emptyH7386, withoutH369 any waterH4325 in it.

25Then they satH3427 downH3427 to eatH398 3a mealH3899. And as they raisedH5375 their eyesH5869 and lookedH7200, beholdH2009, a caravanH736 of 4IshmaelitesH3459 was comingH935 from GileadH1568, with their camelsH1581 bearingH5375 56aromaticH5219 gumH5219 and 78balmH6875 and 9myrrhH3910, 10on their wayH1980 to bringH3381 them downH3381 to EgyptH4714.
