Jacob Mourns Joseph

31 And they took Joseph’s coat, and killed a kid of the goats, and dipped the coat in the blood;

31:

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.

32:

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.

33:

34 And Jacob rent his clothes, and put sackcloth upon his loins, and mourned for his son many days.

34:

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.

35:

36 And the Midianites sold him into Egypt unto Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh’s, [and] captain of the guard.

36:
