²¹ But ^(A)Reuben heard this and delivered him out of their hands and said, “Let us not strike down his life.” ²² Reuben further said to them, “Shed no blood. Cast him into this pit that is in the wilderness, but do not put forth your hands against him”—that he might deliver him out of their hands to return him to his father.
