Genesis 37:25-27

New American Standard Bible 1995

²⁵ Then they sat down to eat ^[a]a meal. And as they raised their eyes and looked, behold, a caravan of ^(A)Ishmaelites was coming from Gilead, with their camels bearing ^[b](B)aromatic gum and ^[c](C)balm and ^[d]myrrh, ^[e]on their way to bring them down to Egypt. ²⁶ Judah said to his brothers, “What profit is it for us to kill our brother and ^(D)cover up his blood? ^27 (E)Come and let us sell him to the Ishmaelites and not lay our hands on him, for he is our brother, our own flesh.” And his brothers listened to him.
