1 E saiu Diná, filha de Lia, que esta dera a Jacó, para ver as filhas da terra.
2 E Siquém, filho de Hamor, heveu, príncipe daquela terra, viu-a, e tomou-a, e deitou-se com ela, e humilhou-a.
3 E apegou-se a sua alma com Diná, filha de Jacó, e amou a moça e falou afetuosamente à moça.
4 Falou também Siquém a Hamor, seu pai, dizendo: Toma-me esta moça por mulher.
5 Quando Jacó ouviu que Diná, sua filha, fora violada, estavam os seus filhos no campo com o gado; e calou-se Jacó até que viessem.
6 E saiu Hamor, pai de Siquém, a Jacó, para falar com ele.
7 E vieram os filhos de Jacó do campo, ouvindo isso, e entristeceram-se os homens, e iraram-se muito, porquanto Siquém cometera uma insensatez em Israel, deitando-se com a filha de Jacó; o que não se devia fazer assim.
8 Então falou Hamor com eles, dizendo: A alma de Siquém, meu filho, está enamorada da vossa filha; dai-lha, peço-vos, por mulher;
9 E aparentai-vos conosco, dai-nos as vossas filhas, e tomai as nossas filhas para vós;
10 E habitareis conosco; e a terra estará diante de vós; habitai e negociai nela, e tomai possessão nela.
11 E disse Siquém ao pai dela, e aos irmãos dela: Ache eu graça em vossos olhos, e darei o que me disserdes;
12 Aumentai muito sobre mim o dote e a dádiva e darei o que me disserdes; dai-me somente a moça por mulher.
13 Então responderam os filhos de Jacó a Siquém e a Hamor, seu pai, enganosamente, e falaram, porquanto havia violado a Diná, sua irmã.
14 E disseram-lhe: Não podemos fazer isso, dar a nossa irmã a um homem não circuncidado; porque isso seria uma vergonha para nós;
15 Nisso, porém, consentiremos a vós: se fordes como nós; que se circuncide todo o homem entre vós;
16 Então dar-vos-emos as nossas filhas, e tomaremos nós as vossas filhas, e habitaremos convosco, e seremos um povo;
17 Mas se não nos ouvirdes, e não vos circuncidardes, tomaremos a nossa filha e ir-nos-emos.
18 E suas palavras foram boas aos olhos de Hamor, e aos olhos de Siquém, filho de Hamor.
19 E não tardou o jovem em fazer isto; porque a filha de Jacó lhe contentava; e ele era o mais honrado de toda a casa de seu pai.
20 Veio, pois, Hamor e Siquém, seu filho, à porta da sua cidade, e falaram aos homens da sua cidade, dizendo:
21 Estes homens são pacíficos conosco; portanto habitarão nesta terra, e negociarão nela; eis que a terra é larga de espaço para eles; tomaremos nós as suas filhas por mulheres, e lhes daremos as nossas filhas.
22 Nisto, porém, consentirão aqueles homens, em habitar conosco, para que sejamos um povo, se todo o homem entre nós se circuncidar, como eles são circuncidados.
23 E seu gado, as suas possessões, e todos os seus animais não serão nossos? Consintamos somente com eles e habitarão conosco.
24 E deram ouvidos a Hamor e a Siquém, seu filho, todos os que saíam da porta da cidade; e foi circuncidado todo o homem, de todos os que saíam pela porta da sua cidade.
25 E aconteceu que, ao terceiro dia, quando estavam com a mais violenta dor, os dois filhos de Jacó, Simeão e Levi, irmãos de Diná, tomaram cada um a sua espada, e entraram afoitamente na cidade, e mataram todos os homens.
26 Mataram também ao fio da espada a Hamor, e a seu filho Siquém; e tomaram a Diná da casa de Siquém, e saíram.
27 Vieram os filhos de Jacó aos mortos e saquearam a cidade; porquanto violaram a sua irmã.
28 As suas ovelhas, e as suas vacas, e os seus jumentos, e o que havia na cidade e no campo, tomaram.
29 E todos os seus bens, e todos os seus meninos, e as suas mulheres, levaram presos, e saquearam tudo o que havia em casa.
30 Então disse Jacó a Simeão e a Levi: Tendes-me turbado, fazendo-me cheirar mal entre os moradores desta terra, entre os cananeus e perizeus; tendo eu pouco povo em número, eles ajuntar-se-ão, e serei destruído, eu e minha casa.
31 E eles disseram: Devia ele tratar a nossa irmã como a uma prostituta?
1 And Dinah the daughter of Leah, which she bore to 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 joined to Dinah the daughter of Jacob, and he loved the damsel, and spoke kindly to the damsel.
4 And Shechem spoke to 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 to 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 worked folly in Israel in lying with Jacob' daughter: which thing ought not to be done.
8 And Hamor communed with them, saying, The soul of my son Shechem longs for your daughter: I pray you give her him to wife.
9 And make you marriages with us, and give your daughters to us, and take our daughters to you.
10 And you shall dwell with us: and the land shall be before you; dwell and trade you therein, and get you possessions therein.
11 And Shechem said to her father and to her brothers, Let me find grace in your eyes, and what you shall say to me I will give.
12 Ask me never so much dowry and gift, and I will give according as you shall say to 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 to them, We cannot do this thing, to give our sister to one that is uncircumcised; for that were a reproach to us:
15 But in this will we consent to you: If you will be as we be, that every male of you be circumcised;
16 Then will we give our daughters to you, and we will take your daughters to us, and we will dwell with you, and we will become one people.
17 But if you will not listen to us, to be circumcised; then will we take our daughter, and we will be gone.
18 And their words pleased Hamor, and Shechem Hamor' son.
19 And the young man deferred not to do the thing, because he had delight in Jacob' daughter: and he was more honorable than all the house of his father.
20 And Hamor and Shechem his son came to 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 to 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 their' be our'? only let us consent to them, and they will dwell with us.
24 And to Hamor and to Shechem his son listened 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' brothers, took each man his sword, and came on the city boldly, and slew all the males.
26 And they slew Hamor and Shechem his son with the edge of the sword, and took Dinah out of Shechem' house, and went out.
27 The sons of Jacob came on 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, You 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?
