Genesis 37:26-28

New International Version

²⁶ Judah^(A) said to his brothers, “What will we gain if we kill our brother and cover up his blood?^{(B) 27} Come, let’s sell him to the Ishmaelites and not lay our hands on him; after all, he is our brother,^(C) our own flesh and blood.^(D)” His brothers agreed.

²⁸ So when the Midianite^(E) merchants came by, his brothers pulled Joseph up out of the cistern^(F) and sold^(G) him for twenty shekels^[a] of silver^(H) to the Ishmaelites,^(I) who took him to Egypt.^(J)
