And Dinah
the daughter
of Leah,
which she bare
unto Jacob,
went out
to see
the daughters
of the land.
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.
And his soul
clave
unto Dinah
the daughter
of Jacob,
and he loved
the damsel,
and spake
kindly
unto the damsel.
And Shechem
spake
unto his father
Hamor,
saying,
Get
me this damsel
to wife.
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.

And Hamor
the father
of Shechem
went out
unto Jacob
to commune
with
him.
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.

And Hamor
communed
with them, saying,
The soul

for your daughter:
I pray you give
her him to wife.
And make ye marriages
with us, and give
your daughters
unto us, and take
our daughters
unto you.
And ye shall dwell
with us: and the land
shall be
before you;
dwell
and trade
ye therein, and get you possessions
therein.
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.
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.
And the sons
of Jacob
answered
Shechem
and Hamor
his father
deceitfully,
and said,
because he had defiled
Dinah
their sister:

And they said
unto them, We cannot

But in this

But if ye will not hearken
unto us, to be circumcised;
then will we take
our daughter,
and we will be gone.
And their words
pleased
Hamor,
and Shechem
Hamor's
son.
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.

And Hamor

saying,
These men

And it came to pass on the third
day,
when they were sore,
that two
of the sons
of Jacob,
Simeon

Dinah's
brethren,
took
each man
his sword,
and came
upon the city
boldly,

And they slew

The sons
of Jacob
came
upon the slain,

the city,

their sister.
They took
their sheep,
and their oxen,
and their asses,
and that which was in the city,

And all their wealth,
and all their little ones,
and their wives
took they captive,
and spoiled
even all that was in the house.
