Genesis 34
1 Leah mah Jakob han sak pae ih canu Dinah loe to prae thung ih nongpatanawk khaeah paqaih hanah caeh.
Dinah, the daughter whom Leah had borne to Jacob, went out to visit the women of the region.
2 To prae ukkung, Hiv acaeng Hanor capa, Shekem mah anih to hnuk naah, anih to naeh moe, iih haih pacoengah amhnongsak.
When Shechem the son of Hamor the Hivite, the ruler of the land, saw her, he grabbed her, and raped her, and humiliated her.
3 Anih loe poekhaih palungthin boih Jakob canu Dinah hanah paek, nongpata to a palung khruek pongah, lok kanaem ta hoiah anih to paroi.
Then he became very attached to Dinah, the daughter of Jacob, and he loved the young woman, and spoke kindly to the young woman.
4 Shekem mah ampa Hamor khaeah, Hae nongpata hae ka zu ah na la pae ah, tiah a naa.
Shechem spoke to his father, Hamor, saying, "Get me this young woman as my wife."
5 A canu Dinah to Shekem mah iih haih boeh, tito Jakob mah thaih, a caanawk loe lawk ah maitaw toep o; Jakob loe nihcae angzo ai karoek to lok apae ai ah anghngai duem.
Now Jacob heard that he had defiled Dinah, his daughter; and his sons were with his livestock in the field. Jacob remained silent until they came.
6 To naah Shekem ampa Hamor loe lokthuih hanah, Jakob khaeah caeh.
Hamor the father of Shechem went out to Jacob to speak with him.
7 Jakob ih caanawk mah to tamthang to thaih o naah, im ah amlaem o roep; Shekem loe Israel kaminawk salakah kahoih ai hmuen hoi sak koi ai hmuen ah kaom, Jakob ih canu Dinah to iih haih moeng boeh pongah, nihcae loe palungnat khue khawt ai ah, palung a phui o parai.
The sons of Jacob came in from the field when they heard it. The men were grieved, and they were very angry, because he had disgraced Israel by sexually assaulting Jacob's daughter; a thing that should not be done.
8 Toe Hamor mah nihcae khaeah, Ka capa Shekem mah na canu hae palung khruek boeh; anih han zu ah na paek halat ah.
Hamor talked with them, saying, "The heart of my son Shechem is set on your daughter. Please give her to him as a wife.
9 Kaicae hoi zu sava ah om si, na canunawk to na paek oh loe, nangcae doeh kaicae tanuh hae la o toeng ah.
Arrange marriages with us. Give your daughters to us, and take our daughters for yourselves.
10 Kaicae khaeah khosah oh, hae prae hae nangcae han kang paongh pae; a thungah khosah oh loe, hmuenmaenawk doeh zaw oh; a thung ih hmuennawk to toep oh, tiah a naa.
You may settle among us, and the land will be open to you. Live and trade in it, and acquire property in it."
11 To pacoengah Shekem mah Dinah ih ampa hoi nawkamyanawk khaeah, Hae hmuen pongah na tahmen o raeh, nang hnik o ih hmuen boih kang paek han.
Shechem said to her father and to her brothers, "Let me find favor in your sight, and whatever you ask of me I will give.
12 Avang hoi tangqum loe nazetto doeh pop nasoe, nang hnik o zetto kang paek han hmang, nongpata hae mah ka zu ah na paek oh, tiah a naa.
Ask me for a very expensive bride price, and I will pay whatever you ask of me, but give me the young woman as a wife."
13 Anih mah nihcae ih tanuh Dinah to zae haih boeh pongah, Jakob ih caanawk mah Shekem hoi ampa Hamor to aling o;
The sons of Jacob replied deceitfully to Shechem and his father Hamor, because he had defiled their sister Dinah.
14 nihcae mah nihnik khaeah, Tangzat hin aat ai kaminawk khaeah, to baktih hmuen to ka sah o thai mak ai; to baktih hmuen loe kaicae han azat kathok hmuen ah ni oh;
And they said to them, "We can't do this thing, to give our sister to one who is uncircumcised; for that would be a disgrace to us.
15 toe kaicae baktih toengah, nangcae thung ih nongpa boih tangzat hin na aah o nahaeloe, na thuih ih lok to kang tapom pae o han;
Only on this condition will we agree with you; that you become like us by circumcising all your males;
16 to pacoengah ni kaicae ih canunawk to kang paek o moe, nangcae ih canunawk doeh ka la o toeng tih; nangcae hoi nawnto ka om o ueloe, acaeng maeto ah om tih.
then will we give our daughters to you, and we will take your daughters to ourselves, and we will live among you and become one people.
17 Toe kang thuih o ih baktih toengah, tangzat hin aah han na koeh o ai nahaeloe, ka canu to ka lak o moe, ka caeh o han boeh, tiah a naa o.
But if you will not listen to us and be circumcised, then we will take our daughter and go away."
18 To tiah a thuih o ih lok to Hamor hoi a capa Shekem mah palung due hoi.
Their words pleased Hamor and Shechem, Hamor's son.
19 To thendoeng loe ampa imthung ah khingya o koek ih thendoeng ah oh moe, Jakob ih canu to koeh khruek pongah, nihcae mah thuih ih lok to aek ai.
The young man did not delay to do this thing, because he was delighted with Jacob's daughter. Now he was the most important of anyone in his father's house.
20 To naah Hamor hoi a capa Shekem loe to vangpui khongkha taengah caeh hoi moe, angmacae vangpui thung ih kaminawk khaeah lok a thuih pae hoi,
Hamor and his son Shechem came to the gate of their city, and spoke to the men of their city, saying,
21 nihnik mah, Hae kaminawk loe angdaeh koeh kami ah oh o; aicae prae ah omsak si loe, hmuenmaenawk doeh zawsak si; khenah, nihcae han kakhawt kalen parai ahmuen doeh oh; nihcae ih canunawk to la o si loe, aicae ih canunawk doeh nihcae han paek si.
"These men are at peace with us. Therefore let them live in the land and travel in it. For look, the land is large enough for them. Let us take their daughters as wives for ourselves, and let us give them our daughters.
22 Toe nihcae loe tangzat aat kami ah oh o pongah, aicae doeh nihcae baktiah tangzat hin aah o naah ni, nihcae loe nangcae hoi nawnto om o thai tih.
Only on this condition will the men agree to live with us as one people: that every male among us be circumcised, as they are circumcised.
23 Nihcae ih maitawnawk, nihcae ih hmuennawk hoi moinawk loe aicae ih hmuen ah om mak ai, tiah na poek o maw? To pongah aicae mah nihcae ih lok to paroi o halat si, to tiah ni nihcae loe aicae hoi nawnto om o tih, tiah a thuih pae hoi.
Won't their livestock and their possessions and all their animals be ours? Only let us agree with them, so they will settle among us."
24 Anih ih vangpui khongkha ah kacaeh kaminawk boih mah Hamor hoi a capa Shekem ih lok to paroi o; to pongah anih ih vangpui thungah kaom nongpanawk loe tangzat hin to aah o boih.
All who went out of the gate of his city agreed with Hamor and his son Shechem; and every male was circumcised, all who went out of the gate of his city.
25 Aahhaih ahmaa nat li haih, ni thumto naah Jakob ih caa, Dinah ih thangqoi Simeon hoi Levi loe angmah hnik ih sumsen to lak hoi moe, misahoihaih hoiah vangpui to muk hoi pacoengah nongpanawk to hum hoi boih.
It happened on the third day, when they were still in pain, that two of Jacob's sons, Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brothers, each took his sword and came into the unsuspecting city and killed all the males.
26 Hamor hoi a capa Shekem to sumsen hoi a hum hoi moe, Shekem imthung ih Dinah to a lak hoi pacoengah, tacawt hoi.
They killed Hamor and his son Shechem with their swords and took Dinah out of Shechem's house and left.
27 Nihcae mah a tanuh to zae o haih pongah, Jakob ih caanawk loe kadueh kaminawk khaeah caeh o moe, vangpui to phraek o.
Jacob's sons entered over the dead and plundered the city, because they had defiled their sister.
28 Tuunawk, maitawnawk, la hrangnawk, vangpui thung kaom hmuennawk hoi lawk ah kaom hmuennawk to a lak o,
They took their flocks, their herds, their donkeys, and whatever was in the city and was in the field,
29 nihcae ih hmuennawk, nihcae ih nawktanawk hoi zunawk to naeh o boih moe, im ah kaom hmuennawk to paro pae o boih.
and all their wealth. They took captive all their little ones and their wives, and took as plunder everything that was in the houses.
30 Jakob mah Simeon hoi Levi khaeah, Raihaih nang paek hoi boeh, Kanaan kaminawk hoi Periz kaminawk, hae prae ah kaom kaminawk khaeah panuet thok ah nang sak hoi boeh; aicae loe kami zetta, nihcae loe kai tuk hanah amkhueng o tih, kai na hum o ueloe, kaimah hoi ka imthung takoh doeh hum o boih tih boeh, tiah a naa.
Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, "You have brought trouble on me, to make me odious to the inhabitants of the land, among the Canaanites and the Perizzites. I am few in number. They will gather themselves together against me and attack me, and I and my household will be destroyed."
31 Toe nihnik mah, Anih mah ka tanuh tangzat zaw kami baktiah sak han oh maw? tiah a naa hoi.
But they said, "Should he treat our sister like a prostitute?"
