- 1. And Dinah the daughter of Leah, which she bare unto Jacob, went out to see the daughters of the land.
- 2. And when Shechem the son of Hamor the Hivite, prince of the country, saw her, he took her, and lay with her, and defiled her.
- 3. And his soul clave unto Dinah the daughter of Jacob, and he loved the damsel, and spake kindly unto the damsel.
- 4. And Shechem spake unto his father Hamor, saying, Get me this damsel to wife.
- 5. And Jacob heard that he had defiled Dinah his daughter: now his sons were with his cattle in the field: and Jacob held his peace until they were come.
- 6. And Hamor the father of Shechem went out unto Jacob to commune with him.
- 7. And the sons of Jacob came out of the field when they heard it: and the men were grieved, and they were very wroth, because he had wrought folly in Israel in lying with Jacob
- 8. And Hamor communed with them, saying, The soul of my son Shechem longeth for your daughter: I pray you give her him to wife.
- 9. And make ye marriages with us, and give your daughters unto us, and take our daughters unto you.
- 10. And ye shall dwell with us: and the land shall be before you; dwell and trade ye therein, and get you possessions therein.
- 11. And Shechem said unto her father and unto her brethren, Let me find grace in your eyes, and what ye shall say unto me I will give.
- 12. Ask me never so much dowry and gift, and I will give according as ye shall say unto me: but give me the damsel to wife.
- 13. And the sons of Jacob answered Shechem and Hamor his father deceitfully, and said, because he had defiled Dinah their sister:
- 14. And they said unto them, We cannot do this thing, to give our sister to one that is uncircumcised; for that were a reproach unto us:
- 15. But in this will we consent unto you: If ye will be as we be, that every male of you be circumcised;
- 16. Then will we give our daughters unto you, and we will take your daughters to us, and we will dwell with you, and we will become one people.
- 17. But if ye will not hearken unto us, to be circumcised; then will we take our daughter, and we will be gone.
- 18. And their words pleased Hamor, and Shechem Hamor
- 19. And the young man deferred not to do the thing, because he had delight in Jacob
- 20. And Hamor and Shechem his son came unto the gate of their city, and communed with the men of their city, saying,
- 21. These men are peaceable with us; therefore let them dwell in the land, and trade therein; for the land, behold, it is large enough for them; let us take their daughters to us for wives, and let us give them our daughters.
- 22. Only herein will the men consent unto us for to dwell with us, to be one people, if every male among us be circumcised, as they are circumcised.
- 23. Shall not their cattle and their substance and every beast of theirs be ours? only let us consent unto them, and they will dwell with us.
- 24. And unto Hamor and unto Shechem his son hearkened all that went out of the gate of his city; and every male was circumcised, all that went out of the gate of his city.
- 25. And it came to pass on the third day, when they were sore, that two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, Dinah
- 26. And they slew Hamor and Shechem his son with the edge of the sword, and took Dinah out of Shechem
- 27. The sons of Jacob came upon the slain, and spoiled the city, because they had defiled their sister.
- 28. They took their sheep, and their oxen, and their asses, and that which was in the city, and that which was in the field,
- 29. And all their wealth, and all their little ones, and their wives took they captive, and spoiled even all that was in the house.
- 30. And Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, Ye have troubled me to make me to stink among the inhabitants of the land, among the Canaanites and the Perizzites: and I being few in number, they shall gather themselves together against me, and slay me; and I shall be destroyed, I and my house.
- 31. And they said, Should he deal with our sister as with an harlot?
