And
Reuben returned unto the
pit; and, behold, Joseph was not in
the pit; and he rent his
clothes.
And
he returned unto his brethren, and said, The child is not; and
I,
whither shall I go?
**
For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my
throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the
congregation, in the sides of the north:
I will ascend above the heights
of the clouds; I will
be like the most
High.
Yet thou shalt be brought down to
hell, to the sides of the pit.
***
And they took him, and cast him
into a pit: and the pit was empty, there
was no water in
it.
***
He shall pour the
water out of his buckets, and his seed
shall be in many waters,
and
his king shall be higher than Agag, and
his kingdom shall be exalted.
God
brought him forth out of Egypt;
he
hath as it were the strength of an uni-corn: he
shall eat
up the
nations his enemies, and shall break their bones,
and
pierce them through with
his arrows.
He couched,
he lay
down as a lion, and as a great lion:
who shall stir him up? Blessed is he that
blesseth
thee,
and cursed is he that curseth
thee.
***
My
skin is black upon me,
and my bones are burned with heat. My
harp also is turned to mourning, and my
organ into the voice of them that weep.
when they come in unto the tabernacle
of the congregation, or when they come near
unto the
altar to minister in the
holy place;
that they bear not inequity, and
die:
it shall be a statute for ever
unto him
