Genesis 37:4, 18, 24, 28

His brothers saw that their father loved Joseph more than all of his brothers; so they hated him and could not [find it within themselves to] speak to him on friendly terms.

And when they saw him from a distance, even before he came close to them, they plotted to kill him.

then they took him and threw him into the pit. Now the pit was empty; there was no water in it.

Then as the Midianite [and Ishmaelite] traders were passing by, the brothers pulled Joseph up and lifted him out of the pit, and they sold him to the Ishmaelites for twenty shekels of silver. And so they took Joseph [as a captive] into Egypt.
