Genesis
Chapter
34
2
And when Shechem, the son of Hamor (the Hivite),
3
And his {Shechem's} soul clave unto Dinah the daughter of Jacob,
4
And Shechem spoke unto his father Hamor, saying, 5 And Jacob {Israel} heard that he had defiled Dinah his daughter. Now his sons were with his cattle in the field. And Jacob {Israel} held his peace until they were come.
6
And Hamor, the father of Shechem,
7
And the sons of Jacob {Israel}
And
the men were grieved,
8-10
And Hamor communed with them, saying, Please/'I pray you' . . . give her him to wife. 9
And
make you marriages with us, And you shall dwell in prosperity {yashab} with us. And the land shall be before you.
Dwell
in prosperity and you trade therein,
11
And Shechem said unto her father and unto her brethren,
Ask
me ever so much dowry and gift, But give me the damsel to wife."
13-17
And the sons of Jacob {Israel}
But
if you desire we consent unto you,
But
if you will not listen unto us . . . 18 And their words pleased Hamor, and Shechem Hamor's son.
19
And the young man hesitated not to do the thing . . . And he was more honorable than all the house of his father.
20-23
And Hamor and Shechem, his son,
Therefore
let them dwell in prosperity in the land, For the land, behold, it is large enough for them.
Let
us take their daughters to us for wives,
Only
herein will the men consent unto us
Shall
not their cattle and their substance Only let us consent unto them, and they will dwell with us."
24
And unto Hamor and unto Shechem, his son,
And
every male was circumcised . . .
25
And it came to pass on the third day,
26
And they slew Hamor and Shechem, his son,
27
The sons of Jacob {Israel} came upon the slain,
28
They took their sheep, and their oxen, and their asses,
30
And Jacob {Israel} said to Simeon and Levi,
And
I, being few in number, And I shall be destroyed . . . I and my house.
