Εἶπεν δὲ αὐτοῖς Ῥουβήν· Μὴ ἐκχέητε αἷμα· ἐμβάλλετε αὐτὸν εἰς τὸν λάκκον τοῦτον τὸν ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ, χεῖρα δὲ μὴ ἐπενέγκητε αὐτῷ· ὅπως ἐξέληται αὐτὸν ἐκ τῶν χειρῶν αὐτῶν καὶ ἀποδῷ αὐτὸν τῷ πατρὶ αὐτοῦ.
Then Rhouben said to them, “Do not shed blood; throw him into this pit in the wilderness, but do not lay your hands upon him”; so that he might rescue him out of their hands and restore him to his father.
