Genesis 37:22-24

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²² Do not take away his life, nor shed his blood: but cast him into this pit, that is in the wilderness, and keep your hands harmless: now he said this, being desirous to deliver him out of their hands and to restore him to his father.

²³ And as soon as he came to his brethren, they forthwith stript him of his outside coat, that was of divers colours:

²⁴ And cast him into an old pit, where there was no water.
