1Then went forth Dinah, the daughter of Leah, whom she had borne to Jacob,to see the daughters of the land. 2And Shechem, son of Hamor the Hivite, prince of the lend, saw her,so he took her, and lay with her, and humbled her. 3And his soul clave unto Dinah, daughter of Jacob,and he loved the young woman, and spake to the heart of the young woman. 4Then spake Shechem unto Hamor his father, saying,Take me this girl to wife! 5Now, Jacob, had heard that he had defiled Dinah his daughter, but, his sons, happened to be with his cattle in the field,so Jacob kept quiet until they came in. 6Then came forth Hamor, father of Shechem, unto Jacob,to speak with him. 7Now the sons of Jacob came in from the field as soon as they heard, and the men were grieved, and it was vexing to them exceedingly,for, a disgraceful deed, had he done with Israel in lying with Jacobs daughter, seeing that so, it should not be done. 8So then Hamor spake with them sayingAs for Shechem my son, his soul hath be-come attached to your daughter,I pray you give her to him, to wife. 9And exchange ye daughters with us in marriage,your daughters, shall ye give to us, and our daughters, shall ye take to you. 10And with us, stroll ye dwell,and, the land, shall be before you, tarry, and go through it, and get possessions therein. 11Then said Shechem unto her father and unto her brethren, Let me find favour in your eyes,and, whatsoever ye may say unto me, will I give: 12Heap on me, exceedingly, dowry and gift, and I will give, just as ye may say unto me,but give me the young woman, to wife. 13And the sons of Jacob answered Shechem and Hamor his father deceitfully, and spake (because he had defiled Dinah their sister) 14and said unto themWe cannot do this thing, to give our sister to a man that is uncircumcised,for a reproach, it would be to us. 15Only herein, can we consent to you,If ye will become like us, by circumcising to you every male, 16then will we give our daughters to you, and your daughters, will we take to us,and we will dwell with you, and become one people. 17But if ye will not hearken unto us, to be circumcised, then will we take our daughter and be gone. 18And their words looked fair in the eyes of Hamor,and in the eyes of Shechem, Hamors son; 19and the young man deferred not to do the thing, because he had delight in Jacobs daughter,he, moreover being more honourable than all the house of his father. 20So Hamor entered with Shechem his son into the gate of their city,and they spake unto the men of their city, saying: 21As for these men, in peace, they are with uslet them therefore dwell in the land and go through it, for, the land, lo! it is roomy on both hands before them,their daughters, let us take to us for wives, and our daughters, let us give to them. 22Only herein, will the men consent to us, to dwell with us, to become one people,If we circumcise to us every male, even as they are circumcised. 23Their herds and their substance, and all their beasts, shall they, not be, ours? Only, we must consent to them, that they may dwell with us. 24And they hearkened unto Hamor, and unto Shechem his son, even all that were going forth out of the gate of his city,and every male was circumcised, all that were going forth out of the gate of his city. 25And it came to pass on the third day, when they were in pain, that two of the sons of Jacob Simeon and Levi, Dinahs brothers, took each man his sword, and came in upon the city, boldly,and slew every, male; 26Hamor also, and Shechem his son, slew they with the edge of the sword,and took Dinah out of the house of Shechem, and came forth, 27The sons of Jacob, came in upon the slain and plundered the city,because they had defiled their sister: 28their flocks, and their herds and their asses,and that which was in the city, and that which was in the field, they took; 29and all their wealth and all their little ones, and their women, took they captive, and seized as plunder,even all that was in their houses. 30Then said Jacob unto Simeon and unto LeviYe have troubled me by making me odious among them that dwell in the land, among the Canaanites, and among the Perizzites,I, having only men that may be counted, they will gather themselves, together against me and smite me,and I shall be destroyed both I and my house. 31And they said,As with a harlot, was he to deal with our sister.
