Genesis 37:20-28
20ComeH3212 now therefore, and let us slayH2026 him, and castH7993 him into someH259 pitH953, and we will sayH559, Some evilH7451 beastH2416 hath devouredH398 him: and we shall seeH7200 what will become of his dreamsH2472. 21And ReubenH7205 heardH8085 it, and he deliveredH5337 him from their handsH3027; and saidH559, Let us not killH5221H5315 him. 22And ReubenH7205 saidH559 to them, ShedH8210 no bloodH1818, castH7993 him into this pitH953 that is in the wildernessH4057, and layH7971 no handH3027 upon him; that he might deliverH5337 him from their handsH3027, to bring him backH7725 to his fatherH1.
23And it came to pass, when JosephH3130 had comeH935 to his brethrenH251, that they strippedH6584H853 JosephH3130 ofH854 his coatH3801, his coatH3801 of many coloursH6446 that was on him;1 24And they tookH3947 him, and castH7993 him into a pitH953: and the pitH953 was emptyH7386, there was no waterH4325 in it. 25And they sat downH3427 to eatH398 breadH3899: and they lifted upH5375 their eyesH5869 and lookedH7200, and, behold, a companyH736 of IshmaelitesH3459 cameH935 from GileadH1568 with their camelsH1581 bearingH5375 spiceryH5219 and balmH6875 and myrrhH3910, goingH1980 to carry them downH3381 to EgyptH4714. 26And JudahH3063 saidH559 to his brethrenH251, What profitH1215 is it if we slayH2026 our brotherH251, and concealH3680 his bloodH1818? 27ComeH3212, and let us sellH4376 him to the IshmaelitesH3459, and let not our handH3027 be upon him; for he is our brotherH251 our fleshH1320. And his brethrenH251 were contentH8085.2 28Then there passedH5674 by MidianitesH4084 merchantsH582H5503; and they drewH4900 and liftedH5927 JosephH3130 out of the pitH953, and soldH4376 JosephH3130 to the IshmaelitesH3459 for twentyH6242 pieces of silverH3701: and they broughtH935 JosephH3130 into EgyptH4714.
