21 And Reuben will hear, and will take him away out of their hands; and he will say, We will not strike the soul. 22 And Reuben will say to them, Ye shall not pour out blood; cast him into this pit which is in the desert, and ye shall not stretch forth the hand upon him; in order to take him away out of their hands to bring him back to his father. 23 And it shall be as Joseph came to his brethren, and they will strip off his tunic, the tunic reaching to the soles of the feet which was upon him. 24 And they will take him and will throw him into the pit; and the pit empty; water not in it.
