29Now when Reuben came back to the hole, Joseph was not there; and giving signs of grief,
30He went back to his brothers, and said, The child is gone; what am I to do?
31Then they took Joseph's coat, and put on it some of the blood from a young goat which they had put to death,
32And they took the coat to their father, and said, We came across this; is it your son's coat or not?
33And he saw that it was, and said, It is my son's coat; an evil beast has put him to death; without doubt Joseph has come to a cruel end.
34Then Jacob, giving signs of grief, put on haircloth, and went on weeping for his son day after day.
35And all his sons and all his daughters came to give him comfort, but he would not be comforted, saying with weeping, I will go down to the underworld to my son. So great was his father's sorrow for him.
