Genesis 37:31-36 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

31. Then they took his tunic, and they dipped it in the blood of a young goat, which they had killed,

32. sending those who carried it to their father, and they said: "We found this. See whether it is the tunic of your son or not."

33. And when the father acknowledged it, he said: "It is the tunic of my son. An evil wild beast has eaten him; a beast has devoured Joseph."

34. And tearing his garments, he was clothed in haircloth, mourning his son for a long time.

35. Then, when all of his sons gathered together to ease their father's sorrow, he was not willing to accept consolation, but he said: "I will descend in mourning to my son in the underworld." And while he persevered in weeping,

36. the Midianites in Egypt sold Joseph to Potiphar, a eunuch of Pharaoh, instructor of the soldiers.
