Genesis 37:27-29

Evangelical Heritage Version

²⁷ Come on, let’s sell him to the Ishmaelites and not lay a hand on him, since he is our brother, our own flesh.” His brothers listened to him. ²⁸ As the Midianites, who were merchants, were passing by, the brothers pulled Joseph up out of the cistern and sold Joseph to the Ishmaelites for twenty pieces^[a] of silver. They brought Joseph to Egypt.

²⁹ When Reuben returned to the cistern, he saw that Joseph was not in the cistern, so he tore his clothing.
