³¹ Then they took Joseph's coat, and put on it some of the blood from a young goat which they had put to death,

²³ So when Joseph came to his brothers, they took off his long coat which he had on;

³ Now the love which Israel had for Joseph was greater than his love for all his other children, because he got him when he was an old man: and he had a long coat made for him.

¹³ He who keeps his sins secret will not do well; but one who is open about them, and gives them up, will get mercy.
