In context

²¹When Reuben heard this, he tried to rescue Joseph from their hands. “Let us not take his life,” he said.

²²“Do not shed his blood. Throw him into this pit in the wilderness, but do not lay a hand on him.” Reuben said this so that he could rescue Joseph from their hands and return him to his father.

²³So when Joseph came to his brothers, they stripped him of his robe—the robe of many colors he was wearing—

²⁴And they took him and threw him into the pit. Now the pit was empty, with no water in it.

²⁵And as they sat down to eat a meal, they looked up and saw a caravan of Ishmaelites coming from Gilead. Their camels were carrying spices, balm, and myrrh on their way down to Egypt.
