1. Mosebok 37,23

Joseph

21 Men Ruben hørte dette og prøvde å redde ham fra deres hender. "La oss ikke ta hans liv," sa han.

22 "Ikke utøs blod. Kast ham i denne brønnen her i ørkenen, men legg ikke hånd på ham." Ruben sa dette for å redde ham fra dem og bringe ham tilbake til sin far.

Da Josef nådde sine brødre, rev de av ham kjortelen, kjortelen med mange farger han hadde på seg.

24 De tok ham og kastet ham i brønnen. Brønnen var tom, uten vann.

25 Mens de satte seg ned for å spise et måltid, så de opp og så en karavane av ismaelitter komme fra Gilead, med sine kameler bærende krydder, balsam og myrra, på vei til Egypt.
