34:1 ¶
And Dinah{gr.Dina}, the daughter of Leah{gr.Lea}, whom she bore to Jacob, went forth to observe the daughters of the inhabitants. |
|
34:1 ¶
And Dinah°
the daughter°
of Leah,°
which°
she bare°°
unto Jacob,°
went out°°
to see°°
the daughters°
of the land.° |
34:2
And Shechem{gr.Sychem} the son of Hamor{gr.Emmor} the Hivite{gr.Evite}, the ruler of the land, saw her, and took her and lay with her, and humbled her. |
|
34:2
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.°° |
34:3
And he was attached to the soul of Dinah{gr.Dina} the daughter of Jacob, and he loved the damsel, and he spoke kindly to the damsel. |
|
34:3
And his soul°
clave°°
unto Dinah°
the daughter°
of Jacob,°
and he loved°°°
the damsel,°
and spake°°
kindly°°
unto the damsel.° |
34:4
Shechem{gr.Sychem} spoke to Hamor{gr.Emmor} his father, saying, Take for me this damsel to wife. |
|
34:4
And Shechem°°
spake°°
unto°
his father°
Hamor,°
saying,°°
Get°°
me°
this°
damsel°
to wife.° |
34:5
And Jacob heard that the son of Hamor{gr.Emmor} had defiled Dinah{gr.Dina} his daughter (now his sons were with his cattle in the plain). And Jacob was silent until they came. |
|
34:5
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.°° |
34:6 ¶
And Hamor{gr.Emmor} the father of Shechem{gr.Sychem} went forth to Jacob, to speak to him. |
|
34:6 ¶
And Hamor°
the father°
of Shechem°
went out°°
unto°
Jacob°
to commune°°
with°
him. |
34:7
And the sons of Jacob came from the plain; and when they heard, the men were deeply pained, and it was very grievous to them, because [the man] wrought folly in Israel, having lain with the daughter of Jacob, and so it must not be. |
|
34:7
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's°
daughter;°
which thing°
ought not°
to be done.°° |
34:8
And Hamor{gr.Emmor} spoke to them, saying, Shechem{gr.Sychem} my son has chosen in his heart your daughter; give her therefore to him for a wife, |
|
34:8
And Hamor°
communed°°
with°
them, saying,°°
The soul°
of my son°
Shechem°°
longeth°°
for your daughter:°
I pray you°
give°°
her him to wife.° |
34:9
and intermarry with us. Give us your daughters, and take our daughters for your sons. |
|
34:9
And make ye marriages°°
with°
us, [and] give°°
your daughters°
unto us, and take°°
our daughters°
unto you. |
34:10
And dwell in the midst of us; and, behold, the land is spacious before you, dwell in it, and trade, and get possessions in it. |
|
34:10
And ye shall dwell°°
with°
us: and the land°
shall be°°
before°
you;°
dwell°°
and trade°°
ye therein, and get you possessions°°
therein. |
34:11
And Shechem{gr.Sychem} said to her father and to her brothers, I would find grace before you, and we will give whatever ye shall name. |
|
34:11
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.°° |
34:12
Multiply [your demand of] dowry very much, and I will give accordingly as ye shall say to me, only ye shall give me this damsel for a wife. |
|
34:12
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.° |
34:13
And the sons of Jacob answered to Shechem{gr.Sychem} and Hamor{gr.Emmor} his father craftily, and spoke to them, because they had defiled Dinah{gr.Dina} their sister. |
|
34:13
And the sons°
of Jacob°
answered°°°
Shechem°°
and Hamor°
his father°
deceitfully,°
and said,°°
because°
he had defiled°°°
Dinah°
their sister:° |
34:14
And Simeon{gr.Symeon} and Levi, the brothers of Dinah{gr.Dina}, said to them, We shall not be able to do this thing, to give our sister to a man who is uncircumcised, for it is a reproach to us. |
|
34:14
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: |
34:15
Only on these terms will we conform to you, and dwell among you, if ye also will be as we are, in that every male of you be circumcised. |
|
34:15
But°
in this°
will we consent°°
unto you: If°
ye will be°
as we [be], that every°
male°
of you be circumcised;°° |
34:16
And we will give our daughters to you, and we will take of your daughters for wives to us, and we will dwell with you, and we will be as one race. |
|
34:16
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.° |
34:17
But if ye will not hearken to us to be circumcised, we will take our daughter and depart. |
|
34:17
But if°
ye will not°
hearken°°
unto°
us, to be circumcised;°°
then will we take°°°
our daughter,°
and we will be gone.°° |
34:18
And the words pleased Hamor{gr.Emmor}, and Shechem{gr.Sychem} the son of Hamor{gr.Emmor}. |
|
34:18
And their words°
pleased°°°
Hamor,°
and Shechem°°
Hamor's°
son.° |
34:19
And the young man delayed not to do this thing, for he was much attached to Jacob's daughter, and he was the most honourable of all in his father's house. |
|
34:19
And the young man°
deferred°°
not°
to do°°
the thing,°
because°
he had delight°°
in Jacob's°
daughter:°
and he°
[was] more honourable°°
than all°°
the house°
of his father.° |
34:20 ¶
And Hamor{gr.Emmor} and Shechem{gr.Sychem} his son came to the gate of their city, and spoke to the men of their city, saying, |
|
34:20 ¶
And Hamor°
and Shechem°°
his son°
came°°
unto°
the gate°
of their city,°
and communed°°
with°
the men°°
of their city,°
saying,°° |
34:21
These men are peaceable, let them dwell with us upon the land, and let them trade in it, and behold the land is extensive before them; we will take their daughters to us for wives, and we will give them our daughters. |
|
34:21
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.° |
34:22
Only on these terms will the men conform to us to dwell with us so as to be one people, if every male of us be circumcised, as they also are circumcised. |
|
34:22
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.°° |
34:23
And shall not their cattle and their herds, and their possessions, be ours? only in this let us conform to them, and they will dwell with us. |
|
34:23
[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. |
34:24
And all that went in at the gate of their city hearkened to Hamor{gr.Emmor} and Shechem{gr.Sychem} his son, and they were circumcised in the flesh of their foreskin every male. |
|
34:24
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.° |
34:25 ¶
And it came to pass on the third day, when they were in pain, the two sons of Jacob, Simeon{gr.Symeon} and Levi, Dinah's{gr.Dina} brethren, took each man his sword, and came upon the city securely, and slew every male. |
|
34:25 ¶
And it came to pass°
on the third°
day,°
when they were°
sore,°°
that two°
of the sons°
of Jacob,°
Simeon°
and Levi,°
Dinah's°
brethren,°
took°°
each man°
his sword,°
and came°°
upon°
the city°
boldly,°
and slew°°
all°
the males.° |
34:26
And they slew Hamor{gr.Emmor} and Shechem{gr.Sychem} his son with the edge of the sword, and took Dinah{gr.Dina} out of the house of Shechem{gr.Sychem}, and went forth. |
|
34:26
And they slew°°
Hamor°
and Shechem°°
his son°
with the edge°
of the sword,°
and took°°°
Dinah°
out°°
of Shechem's°°
house,°°
and went out.°° |
34:27
But the sons of Jacob came upon the wounded, and ravaged the city wherein they had defiled Dinah{gr.Dina} their sister. |
|
34:27
The sons°
of Jacob°
came°°
upon°
the slain,°
and spoiled°°
the city,°
because°
they had defiled°°
their sister.° |
34:28
And their sheep, and their oxen, and their asses they took, and all things whatsoever were in the city, and whatsoever were in the plain. |
|
34:28
They took°°°
their sheep,°
and their oxen,°
and their asses,°
and that which°
[was] in the city,°
and that which°
[was] in the field,° |
34:29
And they took captive all the persons of them, and all their store, and their wives, and plundered both whatever things there were in the city, and whatever things there were in the houses. |
|
34:29
And all°
their wealth,°
and all°
their little ones,°
and their wives°
took they captive,°°
and spoiled°°
even all°
that°
[was] in the house.° |
34:30
And Jacob said to Simeon{gr.Symeon} and Levi, Ye have made me hateful so that I should be evil to all the inhabitants of the land, both among the Canaanites{gr.Chananites} and the Perizzites{gr.Pherezites}, and I am few in number; they will gather themselves against me and cut me in pieces, and I shall be utterly destroyed, and my house. |
|
34:30
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.° |
34:31
And they said, Nay, but shall they treat our sister as an harlot? |
|
34:31
And they said,°°
Should he deal°°
with°°
our sister°
as with an harlot?°° |
