21 When Reuben heard this, he rescued Joseph from their hands, saying, |Let's not take his life!| 22 Reuben continued, |Don't shed blood! Throw him into this cistern that is here in the wilderness, but don't lay a hand on him.| (Reuben said this so he could rescue Joseph from them and take him back to his father.)
