Genesis 37:28


Genesis 37:27 Genesis 37:28 (KJV) Genesis 37:29
Come, and let us sell him to the Ishmeelites, and let not our hand be upon him; for he [is] our brother [and] our flesh. And his brethren were content.
Then there passed by Midianites merchantmen; and they drew and lifted up Joseph out of the pit, and sold Joseph to the Ishmeelites for twenty [pieces] of silver: and they brought Joseph into Egypt.
And Reuben returned unto the pit; and, behold, Joseph [was] not in the pit; and he rent his clothes.
