Joseph

my

brother

recognised

me

,

he

said

unto

me

,

What

did

they

tell

my

father

in

that

they

sold

me

?

And

I

said

unto

him

,

They

dabbled

thy

coat

with

blood

and

sent

it

,

and

said

,

Look

if

this

is

the

coat

of

thy

son

.

And

he

said

to

me

brother

;

for

when

the

Ishmaelites

took

me

,

one

of

them

stripped

off

my

coat

,

and

gave

me

a

girdle

,

and

scourged

me

,

and

bade

me

run

.

And

as

he

went

away

to

hide

my

garment

,

a

lion

met

him

,

and

slew

him

;

and

so

his

fellows

were

afraid

,

and

sold

me

to

their

companions

.
