Mui 34

1 Eso afaega, Daina (Ya: igobe amola Lia ela mano) da Ga: ina: ne uda amo ba: musa: sofe asi.

Now Dinah, the daughter whom Leah had by Jacob, went out to see the women of that country.

2 Siegeme (Haifaide dunu ea dio Ha: imo, amo ea mano) da amo sogega ouligisu dunu esalu. E da Daina ba: beba: le, gasawane doaga: le wadela: lesi dagoi.

And when Shechem, the son of Hamor the Hivite who was the chief of that land, saw her, he took her by force and had connection with her.

3 Be e da Daina hahawane bagade magesa: i ba: i. E da ema bagade magesa: i, amola Daina da ema bu asigimu e da hanai galu.

Then his heart went out in love to Dinah, the daughter of Jacob, and he said comforting words to her.

4 E da ea ada Ha: imo ema amane sia: i, “Na da agoane hanai. Amo a: fini na da dafawane lamu hanai gala. Amo logo di hahamoma.”

And Shechem said to Hamor, his father, Get me this girl for my wife.

5 Ya: igobe da idiwi gogosia: ma: ne wadela: lesi dagoi, amo nabi dagoi. Be egefelali da sogega sibi ouligisa esalebeba: le, e da ili bu misunu ouesalu.

Now Jacob had word of what Shechem had done to his daughter; but his sons were in the fields with the cattle, and Jacob said nothing till they came.

6 Siegeme eda Ha: imo da Ya: igobema sia: sa: imusa: misi.

Then Hamor, the father of Shechem, came out to have a talk with Jacob.

7 Sia: nanoba, Ya: igobe egefelali da misini doaga: i. Siegeme da wadela: i hou amoga ilima gogosiasu i, amola Ya: igobe ea uda mano wadela: lesi, amo nababeba: le, ilia da mi hanai galu.

Now the sons of Jacob came in from the fields when they had news of it, and they were wounded and very angry because of the shame he had done in Israel by having connection with Jacob's daughter; and they said, Such a thing is not to be done.

8 Ha: imo da Ya: igobema amane sia: i, “Na mano Siegeme da didiwima bagade magesa: i. E amo lama: ne, logo hamoma.

But Hamor said to them, Shechem, my son, is full of desire for your daughter: will you then give her to him for a wife?

9 Ninia gousa: su hamomu da defea. Amoga ninia fi amola dia fi hahawane uda lasu hou hamomu da defea.

And let our two peoples be joined together; give your daughters to us, and take our daughters for yourselves.

10 Amasea, dilia da ninia soge ganodini esalumu da defea. Dilia da dili hanaiga fima, bidi lama, amola soge lama.”

Go on living with us, and the country will be open to you; do trade and get property there.

11 Amalalu, Siegeme da Daina eda amola yolalali ilima amane sia: i, “Dilia da nama amo hahawane hamosea, na da dilima liligi dilia hanaiga imunu.

And Shechem said to her father and her brothers, If you will give ear to my request, whatever you say I will give to you.

12 Dilia lamu hanai, amo nama adoma. Bidi bagade dilia hanaiga defei ilegema. Na da amo a: fini lama: ne dilia da sia: sea, na da dilima dili hanai defele imunu.”

However great you make the bride-price and payment, I will give it; only let me have the girl for my wife.

13 Siegeme da ilia dalusi Daina amo wadela: lesiba: le, Ya: igobe egefe ilia da Siegeme amola ea ada Ha: imo elama hohonomusa: dawa: le, amane bu adole i.

But the sons of Jacob gave a false answer to Shechem and Hamor his father, because of what had been done to Dinah their sister.

14 Ilia da ema amane sia: i, “Ninia dalusi amo gadofo hame damui dunu amoga lamu da hamedei. Amo da ninima gogosiasu liligi.

And they said, It is not possible for us to give our sister to one who is without circumcision, for that would be a cause of shame to us:

15 Be dia fi dunu huluane da ilia gadofo damusia, amo hamobeba: le fawane ninia dalusi lamu defele ba: mu.

But on this condition only will we come to an agreement with you: if every male among you becomes like us and undergoes circumcision;

16 Amasea, ninia fi amola dia fi uda lasu hou hamomu. Ninia dilia gilisisu amo ganodini fimu, amalalu ninia amola dilia da fi afadafa hamomu.

Then we will give our daughters to you and take your daughters to us and go on living with you as one people.

17 Be dili amo higasea, amola gadofo damusu hame lalegagusia, defea, ninia da ninia dalusi lale, fisili masunu.”

But if you will not undergo circumcision as we say, then we will take our daughter and go.

18 Amo hou Ha: imo amola egefe Siegeme da hahawane ba: i.

And their words were pleasing to Hamor and his son Shechem.

19 Amo ayeligi da Ya: igobe idiwi ema bagade asigiba: le hedolowane amo hou hamomusa: dawa: i galu. Siegeme da ea fi amo ganodini bisili mimogo dunu esalu.

And without loss of time the young man did as they said, because he had delight in Jacob's daughter, and he was the noblest of his father's house.

20 Ha: imo amola ea mano Siegeme da diasu holei fofada: su gilisisu sogebi asili, ilia fi dunuma amane sia: i,

Then Hamor and Shechem, his son, went to the meeting-place of their town, and said to the men of the town,

21 “Amo dunu ilia da ninima asigisa. Ilia da nini soge ganodini udigili esalumu da defea. Ninia soge da bagade amola ili amola nini gilisili esalumu defele ba: sa. Ninia ilia uda mano lamu, amola ilia da ninia uda mano lamu da defea.

It is the desire of these men to be at peace with us; let them then go on living in this country and doing trade here, for the country is wide open before them; let us take their daughters as wives and let us give them our daughters.

22 Be ilia da gadofo damuiba: le, ninia dunu huluane da gadofo damusia fawane ilia da ninima gilisimu.

But these men will make an agreement with us to go on living with us and to become one people, only on the condition that every male among us undergoes circumcision as they have done.

23 Ilia da ninima gilisisia, ilia lai gebo fi amola ilia liligi huluane da ninia liligi dialumu. Amaiba: le, ilia da ninima gilisimusa: , ninia sia: mu da defea.”

Then will not their cattle and their goods and all their beasts be ours? so let us come to an agreement with them so that they may go on living with us.

24 Moilai bai bagade dunu huluane da Ha: imo amola Siegeme ela sia: da defea dawa: i. Amalalu, dunu huluane ilia gadofo damui dagoi.

Then all the men of the town gave ear to the words of Hamor and Shechem his son; and every male in the town underwent circumcision.

25 Eso udiana aligili, Siegeme dunu huluane da gadofo damuiba: le se nabaloba, Ya: igobe egefe aduna amo Simione amola Lifai (Daina yolala), ela da gegesu gobihei bagade gaguli, wamowane moilai ganodini asili, Siegeme dunu huluane fane legei dagoi.

But on the third day after, before the wounds were well, two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brothers, took their swords and came into the town by surprise and put all the males to death.

26 Ela da Ha: imo amola Siegeme fane legei. Amalalu, ela da Daina amo Siegeme ea diasuga fadegale, hiouginana asi.

And Hamor and his son they put to death with the sword, and they took Dinah from Shechem's house and went away.

27 Dunu huluane fane legelalu, Ya: igobe egefelali eno da ilia dalusi wadela: lesi dabe lama: ne, moilai liligi huluane sasamogene lai dagoi.

And the sons of Jacob came on them when they were wounded and made waste the town because of what had been done to their sister;

28 Ilia da sibi amola goudi, bulamagau, dougi, liligi amo soge amola diasu ganodini dialu, amo huluane sasamogene lai dagoi.

They took their flocks and their herds and their asses and everything in their town and in their fields,

29 Ilia da noga: i liligi huluane, uda amola mano huluane gagulaligili asi.

And all their wealth and all their little ones and their wives; everything in their houses they took and made them waste.

30 Ya: igobe da Simione amola Lifai elama amane sia: i, “Alia houba: le, na da se nabi dagoi. Wali Ga: ina: ne dunu, Belesaide dunu amola dunu huluane amo soge ganodini esala da nama bagade higamu. Na dunu da bagahame gala. Ilia da huluane gilisili nama doagala: sea, na fi huluane da wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu.”

And Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, You have made trouble for me and given me a bad name among the people of this country, among the Canaanites and the Perizzites: and because we are small in number they will come together against me and make war on me; and it will be the end of me and all my people.

31 Be ilia da bu adole i, “Ilia da ninia dalusi udigili wadela: i aheda: i uda defele hamomu da ninima hamedei.”

But they said, Were we to let him make use of our sister as a loose woman?
