28 And when the Midianite merchantmen passed by, they took and lifted up Joseph out of the cistern and sold Joseph to the Ishmeelites for twenty pieces of silver. And they brought Joseph into Egypt.
29 And Reuben returned unto the cistern; and, behold, Joseph was not inside, and he rent his clothes.
30 And he returned unto his brethren and said, The young man is not; and I, where shall I go?
31 ¶ Then they took Joseph’s coat and killed a kid of the goats and dipped the coat in the blood;
32 and they sent the coat of many colours, and they brought it to their father and said, We have found this, recognize now whether it is thy son’s coat or not.
33 And he knew it and said, It is my son’s coat; an evil beast has devoured him; Joseph is without doubt rent in pieces.
34 Then Jacob rent his clothes and put sackcloth upon his loins and mourned for his son many days.
35 And all his sons and all his daughters rose up to comfort him, but he refused to be comforted, and he said, For I will go down into the grave unto my son mourning. Thus his father wept for him.
