Genesis 37:32-34

New International Reader's Version

³² They took the robe back to their father. They said, “We found this. Take a look at it. See if it’s your son’s robe.”

³³ Jacob recognized it. He said, “It’s my son’s robe! A wild animal has eaten him up. Joseph must have been torn to pieces.”

³⁴ Jacob tore his clothes. He put on the rough clothing people wear when they’re sad. Then he mourned for his son many days.
