Genesis 34
1 Then Dinah, the daughter of Leah, went out to see the women of that region.
Niakatse hitilike o ampela’ i taneio t’i Dinae, anak’ampela’ i Leae, nisamake ama’ Iakòbey.
2 And when Shechem, the son of Hamor the Hivite, the leader of that land, had seen her, he fell in love with her. And so he seized her and slept with her, overwhelming the virgin by force.
Ie nahaisak’ aze t’i Sikeme, ana’ i Khamòre nte-Khive, mpifehe’ i taney, le rinambe’e naho vinaho’e vaho nanimba aze.
3 And his soul was closely bound to her, and, since she was sorrowful, he soothed her with flattery.
Fe nipitek’ amy Dinae ana’ Iakòbe ty tro’e; nitea’e i ampelay, toe nihonkoñe’e an-drehake i somondraray.
4 And going on to Hamor, his father, he said, “Obtain this girl for me as a mate.”
Aa le hoe t’i Sikeme amy Khamòre rae’e, Alao ho ahiko i ampelay ho valiko.
5 But when Jacob had heard this, since his sons were absent and he was occupied in pasturing the cattle, he remained silent until they came back.
Jinanji’ Iakòbe te nitivae’e t’i Dinae anak’ampela’e fe niarak’ añombe am-piandrazañe añe o ana-dahi’eo le nianjiñe hey t’Iakòbe ampara’ t’ie nimpoly.
6 Then, when Hamor, the father of Shechem, had gone out to speak to Jacob,
Niavotse mb’am’ Iakòbe mb’eo t’i Khamòre hifanaontsy,
7 behold, his sons arrived from the field. And hearing what had happened, they were very angry, because he had done a filthy thing in Israel and, in violating a daughter of Jacob, had perpetrated an unlawful act.
le boak’ an-kivok’añe o ana’ Iakòbeo te nahatsanoñe, ie niompo’ ty fombo amy hagegeam-bey nanoe’e am’ Israeley, t’ie namahotse i ana’ Iakòbey, fa vata’e tsy fanao.
8 And so Hamor spoke to them: “The soul of my son Shechem has become attached to your daughter. Give her to him as a wife.
Aa hoe ty enta’ i Khamòre am’ iereo, Mifamitran-trok’ amy anak’ampela’ areoy t’i Sikeme anako; ehe, atoloro’ aze ho vali’e.
9 And let us celebrate marriages with one with another. Give us your daughters, and receive our daughters.
Mifanambalia ama’ay; meo anay o anak’ ampela’ areoo le engao ho anahareo o anak’ ampela’aio,
10 And live with us. The land is in your power: cultivate, trade, and possess it.”
le mitraofa fimoneñe, fa añatrefa’ areo o taneo; imoneño le mikaloa ao vaho manontona vara ama’e.
11 And Shechem even said to her father and to her brothers: “May I find favor in your sight, and whatever you will appoint, I will give.
Hoe ka t’i Sikeme aman-drae’e naho amo rahalahi’eo, Ehe t’ie hahatrea fañisohañe am-pihaino’areo, ze saontsie’ areo le homeako.
12 Increase the dowry, and request gifts, and I will freely bestow what you will ask. Only give me this girl as a wife.”
Aonjono naho alosoro amako ty lafitihy naho ty ravoravo le ho tolorako ze hampanoe’ areo, fa, ehe, meo ahiko i somondraray ho valy.
13 The sons of Jacob answered Shechem and his father with deceit, being enraged at the rape of their sister:
Fe vinale’ o ana’Iakòbeo am-pamañahiañe t’i Sikeme naho i Khamòre (ie nameta i Dinae, zai’ iareo.)
14 “We are not able to do what you ask, nor to give our sister to an uncircumcised man. For us, this is unlawful and abominable.
Hoe ty asa’ iareo tama’e, Tsy mete’ay o raha zao, ty manolotse ty zai’ay ampela ami’ ty tsy afa-boy fa fañinjeañe ama’ay.
15 But we may succeed in this, so as to be allied with you, if you are willing to become like us, and if all the male sex among you will be circumcised.
Aa kanao hiantofa’ay, le hifanahake ama’ay nahareo, te songa hafahañ’ ofoke ze atao lahilahy ama’ areo;
16 Then we will mutually give and receive your daughters as well as ours; and we will live with you, and we will become one people.
vaho hitolora’ay o anak’ ampela’aio, naho hangala’ay o anak’ ampela’ areoo naho hiharoa’ay fimoneñañe vaho ho ondaty raike tika.
17 But if you will not be circumcised, we will take our daughter and withdraw.”
Fa naho tsy mete mañaoñe anay tsy hisavatse, le hendese’ay ty anak’ampela’ay, hienga.
18 Their offer pleased Hamor and his son Shechem.
Ninò’ i Khamòre naho i Sikeme ana’ i Khamòre i saontsy zay;
19 Neither did the young man cause any delay; in fact he immediately fulfilled what was requested. For he loved the girl very much, and he was well-known throughout his father’s house.
le tsy nihenekenek’ amy rahay i ajalahiy, amy te nampinembanembañ’ aze i anak’ ampela’ Iakòbey. Toe ie ty nanañ’ asy amo hene añ’anjomban-drae’eo.
20 And entering at the gate of the city, they spoke to the people:
Aa le nivotrak’ an-dalambein-drova’ iareo t’i Khamòre naho i Sikeme ana’e le nilañoñe am’ ondati’ i rova’ iareoio ami’ty hoe,
21 “These men are peaceful, and they want to live among us. Let them trade in the land and cultivate it, for, being spacious and broad, it is in need of cultivation. We will receive their daughters as wives, and we will give them ours.
Ondaty mora aman-tika iereo; angao himoneñe an-tane atoy, hihezeñe ama’e, fa heheke, tsahatse iareo ty habei’ o taneo; hengaen-tika ho valy o anak’ ampela’ iareoo vaho hitoloran-tika o anak’ ampelan-tikañeo.
22 There is one thing that prevents so great a good: whether we will circumcise our males, imitating the ritual of their nation.
Fe ami’ty fetse toy avao ty hitraofa’ iareo fimoneñe aman-tika h’ondaty raike: te songa hisavatse ze lahilahy amantika amy t’ie ro afa-boy.
23 And their substance, and cattle, and all that they possess, will be ours, if only we will acquiesce to this, and so, in living together, will form one people.”
Tsy ho antika hao o añombe’ iareoo naho o vara’ iareoo naho ze hene hare’iareo? Aa le antao hiantoke, hitraofa’iareo fimoneñe aman-tika.
24 And they all agreed to circumcise every one of the males.
Jinanji’ ze mpienga an-dalambei’ i rovay ty saontsi’ i Khamòre naho i Sikeme ana’e; le songa sinavatse o lahilahio, ze hene mpienga an-dalambei’ i rovay.
25 And behold, on the third day, when the pain of the wound was greatest, two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, the brothers of Dinah, boldly entered the city with swords. And they put to death all of the males.
Aa ie amy andro fahateloy, naho mbe nitivontivoñe iereo, le sindre nandrambe ty fibara’e ty ana’ Iakòbe roe, i Simone naho i Levy, rahalahi’ i Dinae, naho nitoañe mb’amy rovay mb’eo, vaho fonga zinamañe ze atao lahilahy.
26 They killed Hamor and Shechem together, taking their sister Dinah from the house of Shechem.
Zinevo’ iareo am-pibara t’i Khamòre naho i Sikeme naho rinambe’iereo boak’añ’anjomba’ i Sikeme ao t’i Dinae vaho niavotse.
27 And when they had departed, the other sons of Jacob rushed over the slain, and they plundered the city in vengeance for the rape.
Nitendreke o loloo i ana’ Iakòbe ila’e rey vaho kinopa’iereo i rovay ty amy zai’e ampela vinètay.
28 Taking their sheep, and herds, and donkeys, and laying waste to everything else that was in their houses and in their fields,
Fonga finao’ iereo o mpirai-lia’ iareoo naho o tro-rai’ iareoo, o borìke’ iareoo, ze an-drova ao naho ze an-kivoke ey;
29 they also took their little ones and their wives captive.
naho ze hene vara’iareo naho o keleia’ iareoo naho o vali’ iareoo vaho fonga nikopahe’ iereo ze añ’anjomba ao.
30 When they had boldly completed these acts, Jacob said to Simeon and Levi: “You have troubled me, and you have made me hateful to the Canaanites and the Perizzites, the inhabitants of this land. We are few. They, gathering themselves together, may strike me down, and then both I and my house will be wiped away.”
Le hoe t’Iakòbe amy Simone naho i Levy, Nanolo-tsotry ahiko nahareo le mitròtrotse amo mpimone’ ty tane toio iraho, amo nte-Kanàneo, amo nte-Perèzeo; aa kanao tsy ampeampe ondatikoo, hifanontoñe iereo, hamono ahy, le ho rotsake reketse hasavereñañe.
31 They responded, “Should they abuse our sister like a prostitute?”
Fa hoe ka iereo, Aa vaho ho nanoe’e tsimirirañe hao i zai’aiy?
