1 Mosebog 34
1 Og Dina, Leas Datter, som hun havde født Jakob, gik ud for at se paa Landets Døtre.
Now Dinah, Leah's daughter whom she bore to Jacob, went out to meet the young women of the land.
2 Og Sikem, Landsherren Hemor den Heviters Søn, saa hende, og han tog hende og laa hos hende og krænkede hende.
Shechem son of Hamor the Hivite, the prince of the land, saw her and he grabbed her, assaulted her, and slept with her.
3 Og hans Hjerte hængte ved Dina, Jakobs Datter, og han havde Pigen kær og talede kærligen med Pigen.
He was drawn to Dinah, the daughter of Jacob. He loved the young woman and spoke tenderly to her.
4 Og Sikem talede til sin Fader, Hemor, og sagde: Tag mig denne Pige til Hustru!
Shechem spoke to his father Hamor, saying, “Get this young woman for me as a wife.”
5 Og Jakob havde hørt, at han havde skændet Dina, hans Datter, og hans Sønner vare med hans Kvæg paa Marken, og Jakob tav, indtil de kom.
Now Jacob heard that he had defiled Dinah his daughter. His sons were with his livestock in the field, so Jacob held his peace until they came.
6 Og Hemor, Sikems Fader, gik ud til Jakob at tale med ham.
Hamor the father of Shechem went out to Jacob to speak with him.
7 Og Jakobs Sønner kom fra Marken, der de hørte det, og Mændene forbitredes og bleve saare vrede; thi han havde gjort en Daarlighed mod Israel ved at ligge hos Jakobs Datter, og saaledes burde det ikke ske.
The sons of Jacob came in from the field when they heard of the matter. The men were offended. They were very angry because he had disgraced Israel by forcing himself on Jacob's daughter, for such a thing should not have been done.
8 Da talede Hemor med dem og sagde: Min Søn Sikems Hjerte har Lyst til eders Datter; kære, giver ham hende til Hustru,
Hamor spoke with them, saying, “My son Shechem loves your daughter. Please give her to him as a wife.
9 og gører Svogerskab med os; giver os eders Døtre, og tager eder vore Døtre!
Intermarry with us, give your daughters to us, and take our daughters for yourselves.
10 Og I skulle bo hos os, og Landet skal være for eders Aasyn, bor og handler deri, tager eder Ejendom i det!
You will live with us, and the land will be open to you to live and trade in, and to acquire property.”
11 Og Sikem sagde til hendes Fader og til hendes Brødre: Lad mig finde Naade for eders Øjne, og jeg vil give, hvad I ville sige til mig.
Shechem said to her father and to her brothers, “Let me find favor in your eyes, and whatever you tell me I will give.
12 Begærer saare meget af mig til Morgengave og Skænk, og jeg vil give, efter som I sige mig, men giver mig Pigen til Hustru!
Ask me for as great a bride price and gift as you will, and I will give whatever you say to me, but give me the young woman as a wife.”
13 Da svarede Jakobs Sønner Sikem og hans Fader Hemor svigagtigen og talede med dem, fordi han havde skændet Dina, deres Søster,
The sons of Jacob answered Shechem and Hamor his father with deceit, because Shechem had defiled Dinah their sister.
14 og de sagde til dem: Vi kunne ikke gøre denne Gerning, at give vor Søster til en Mand, som har Forhud; thi det er en Forsmædelse for os.
They said to them, “We cannot do this thing, to give our sister to anyone who is uncircumcised; for that would be a disgrace to us.
15 Dog ville vi være eder til Villie i dette, dersom I ville blive som vi, saa I lade alt Mandkøn hos eder omskære.
Only on this condition will we agree with you: If you will become circumcised as we are, if every male among you is circumcised.
16 Og vi ville give eder vore Døtre og tage os eders Døtre og bo hos eder, og vi ville være eet Folk.
Then will we give our daughters to you, and we will take your daughters to ourselves, and we will live with you and become one people.
17 Men dersom I ikke ville høre os i at lade eder omskære, da ville vi tage vor Datter og drage bort.
But if you do not listen to us and become circumcised, then we will take our sister and we will leave.”
18 Og deres Tale behagede Hemor og Sikem, Hemors Søn.
Their words pleased Hamor and his son Shechem.
19 Og den unge Karl tøvede ikke med at gøre denne Gerning; thi han havde Lyst til Jakobs Datter, og han var æret fremfor hele sin Faders Hus.
The young man did not delay to do what they said, because he delighted in Jacob's daughter, and because he was the most honored person in all his father's household.
20 Saa kom Hemor og Sikem, hans Søn, til deres Stads Port og talede til deres Bymænd og sagde:
Hamor and Shechem his son went to the gate of their city and spoke with the men of their city, saying,
21 disse Mænd ere fredsommelige hos os og ville bo i Landet og handle deri, og se, Landet er vidt nok for dem; vi ville tage os deres Døtre til Hustruer og give dem vore Døtre.
“These men are at peace with us, so let them live in the land and trade in it for, really, the land is large enough for them. Let us take their daughters as wives, and let us give them our daughters.
22 Dog i saa Maade ville Mændene være os til Villie med at bo hos os og blive eet Folk med os, om vi ville omskære alt Mandkøn iblandt os, lige som de ere omskaarne.
Only on this condition will the men agree to live with us and become one people: If every male among us is circumcised, as they are circumcised.
23 Deres Fæ og deres Gods og alt deres Kvæg, blive de ikke vore? ikkun at vi ere dem til Villie, da ville de bo hos os.
Will not their livestock and their property—all their animals be ours? So let us agree with them, and they will live among us.”
24 Og de løde Hemor og hans Søn Sikem, alle de, som gik ud af hans Stads Port, og alt Mandkøn lod sig omskære, alle som gik ud af hans Stads Port.
All the men of the city listened to Hamor and Shechem, his son. Every male was circumcised.
25 Og det skete paa den tredje Dag, der de havde Smerter, da toge de to Jakobs Sønner, Simeon og Levi, Dinas Brødre, hver sit Sværd og kom ind i den trygge Stad, og de sloge alt Mandkøn ihjel.
On the third day, when they were still in pain, two of the sons of Jacob (Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brothers), each took his sword and they attacked the city that was certain of its security, and they killed all the males.
26 Og de sloge Hemor og hans Søn, Sikem, ihjel med skarpe Sværd og toge Dina af Sikems Hus og gik bort.
They killed Hamor and his son Shechem with the edge of the sword. They took Dinah from Shechem's house and went away.
27 Saa kom Jakobs Sønner over de ihjelslagne og plyndrede Staden, fordi de havde skændet deres Søster.
The other sons of Jacob came to the dead bodies and looted the city, because the people had defiled their sister.
28 Deres Kvæg og deres Øksen og deres Asener, baade hvad der var i Staden, og hvad der var paa Marken, toge de.
They took their flocks, their herds, their donkeys, and everything in the city and in the surrounding fields with
29 Og al deres Formue og alle deres Børn og deres Kvinder fangede og røvede de, og alt, hvad der var i Huset.
all their wealth. All their children and their wives, they captured. They even took everything that was in the houses.
30 Da sagde Jakob til Simeon og Levi: I have forstyrret mig, idet I gjorde mig stinkende for dette Lands Indbyggere, for Kananiten og Feresiten, og jeg er en liden Hob, og de kunne samle sig imod mig og slaa mig, og jeg maatte ødelægges, jeg og mit Hus.
Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, “You have brought trouble on me, to make me stink to the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites and the Perizzites. I am few in number. If they gather themselves together against me and attack me, then I will be destroyed, I and my household.”
31 Og de sagde: Mon han skulde handle med vor Søster som med en Skøge?
But Simeon and Levi said, “Should Shechem have dealt with our sister as with a prostitute?”
