Genesis 37:29-36
-
29 And Reuben returned unto the pit; and, behold, Joseph was not in the pit; and he rent his clothes.
-
30 And he returned unto his brethren, and said, The child is not; and I, whither shall I go?
-
31 And they took Joseph's coat, and killed a kid of the goats, and dipped the coat in the blood;
-
32 And they sent the coat of many colours, and they brought it to their father; and said, This have we found: know now whether it be thy son's coat or no.
-
33 And he knew it, and said, It is my son's coat; an evil beast hath devoured him; Joseph is without doubt rent in pieces.
-
34 And Jacob rent his clothes, and put sackcloth upon his loins, and mourned for his son many days.
-
35 And all his sons and all his daughters rose up to comfort him; but he refused to be comforted; and he said, For I will go down into the grave unto my son mourning. Thus his father wept for him.
