Genesis 37:22
Douay-Rheims
Do not take away his life, nor shed his blood: but cast him into this pit, that is in the wilderness, and keep your hands harmless: now he said this, being desirous to deliver him out of their hands and to restore him to his father.
Francis Patrick Kenrick
This was a providential occurrence. Juda relented in some degree, and proposed that he should be sold as a slave, that their hands might not be imbued with his blood.
