Genesis 34
1 Then Dinah the daughter of Leah, which she bare vnto Iaakob, went out to see the daughters of that countrey.
Egressa est autem Dina filia Liae ut videret mulieres regionis illius.
2 Whome when Shechem the sonne of Hamor the Hiuite lorde of that countrey sawe, hee tooke her, and lay with her, and defiled her.
Quam cum vidisset Sichem filius Hemor Hevaei, princeps terrae illius, adamavit eam: et rapuit, et dormivit cum illa, vi opprimens virginem.
3 So his heart claue vnto Dinah the daughter of Iaakob: and he loued the maide, and spake kindely vnto the maide.
Et conglutinata est anima eius cum ea, tristemque delinivit blanditiis.
4 Then said Shechem to his father Hamor, saying, Get me this maide to wife.
Et pergens ad Hemor patrem suum, Accipe, inquit, mihi puellam hanc coniugem.
5 (Nowe Iaakob heard that he had defiled Dinah his daughter, and his sonnes were with his cattell in the fielde: therefore Iaakob helde his peace, vntill they were come.)
Quod cum audisset Iacob, absentibus filiis, et in pastu pecorum occupatis, siluit donec redirent.
6 Then Hamor the father of Shechem went out vnto Iaakob to commune with him.
Egresso autem Hemor patre Sichem ut loqueretur ad Iacob,
7 And whe the sonnes of Iaakob were come out of the fielde and heard it, it grieued the men, and they were very angry, because he had wrought villenie in Israel, in that he had lyen with Iaakobs daughter: which thing ought not to be done.
ecce filii eius veniebant de agro: auditoque quod acciderat, irati sunt valde, eo quod foedam rem operatus esset in Israel et, violata filia Iacob, rem illicitam perpetrasset.
8 And Hamor communed with them, saying, the soule of my sonne Shechem longeth for your daughter: giue her him to wife, I pray you.
Locutus est itaque Hemor ad eos: Sichem filii mei adhaesit anima filiae vestrae: date eam illi uxorem:
9 So make affinitie with vs: giue your daughters vnto vs, and take our daughters vnto you,
et iungamus vicissim connubia: filias vestras tradite nobis, et filias nostras accipite.
10 And ye shall dwell with vs, and the lande shalbe before you: dwell, and doe your businesse in it, and haue your possessions therein.
Et habitate nobiscum: terra in potestate vestra est, exercete, negotiamini, et possidete eam.
11 Shechem also said vnto her father and vnto her brethren, Let me finde fauour in your eyes, and I will giue whatsoeuer ye shall appoint me.
Sed et Sichem ad patrem et ad fratres eius ait: Inveniam gratiam coram vobis: et quaecumque statueritis, dabo:
12 Aske of me abundantly both dowrie and giftes, and I will giue as ye appoint me, so that ye giue me the maide to wife.
augete dotem, et munera postulate, et libenter tribuam quod petieritis: tantum date mihi puellam hanc uxorem.
13 Then the sonnes of Iaakob answered Shechem and Hamor his father, talking deceitfully, because he had defiled Dinah their sister,
Responderunt filii Iacob Sichem et patri eius in dolo, saevientes ob stuprum sororis:
14 And they said vnto them, We can not do this thing, to giue our sister to an vncircumcised man: for that were a reproofe vnto vs.
Non possumus facere quod petitis, nec dare sororem nostram homini incircumciso: quod illicitum et nefarium est apud nos.
15 But in this will we consent vnto you, if ye will be as we are, that euery man childe among you be circumcised:
Sed in hoc valebimus foederari, si volueritis esse similes nostri, et circumcidatur in vobis omnis masculini sexus;
16 Then will we giue our daughters to you, and we will take your daughters to vs, and will dwell with you, and be one people.
tunc dabimus et accipiemus mutuo filias vestras, ac nostras: et habitabimus vobiscum, erimusque unus populus:
17 But if ye will not hearken vnto vs to be circumcised, then will we take our daughter and depart.
si autem circumcidi nolueritis, tollemus filiam nostram, et recedemus.
18 Nowe their wordes pleased Hamor, and Shechem Hamors sonne.
Placuit oblatio eorum Hemor, et Sichem filio eius:
19 And the yong man deferd not to doe the thing because he loued Iaakobs daughter: he was also the most set by of all his fathers house.
nec distulit adolescens quin statim quod petebatur expleret: amabat enim puellam valde, et ipse erat inclytus in omni domo patris sui.
20 Then Hamor and Shechem his Sonne went vnto the gate of their citie, and communed with the men of their citie, saying,
Ingressique portam urbis, locuti sunt ad populum:
21 These men are peaceable with vs: and that they may dwell in the land, and doe their affaires therin (for behold, the land hath roume ynough for them) let vs take their daughters to wiues, and giue them our daughters.
Viri isti pacifici sunt, et volunt habitare nobiscum: negotientur in terra, et exerceant eam, quae spatiosa et lata cultoribus indiget: filias eorum accipiemus uxores, et nostras illis dabimus.
22 Onely herein will the men consent vnto vs for to dwell with vs, and to be one people, if all the men children among vs be circumcised as they are circumcised.
Unum est quo differtur tantum bonum: Si circumcidamus masculos nostros, ritum gentis imitantes.
23 Shall not their flockes and their substance and all their cattell be ours? onely let vs consent herein vnto them, and they will dwell with vs.
Et substantia eorum, et pecora, et cuncta quae possident, nostra erunt: tantum in hoc acquiescamus, et habitantes simul, unum efficiamus populum.
24 And vnto Hamor, and Shechem his sonne hearkened all that went out of the gate of his citie: and all the men children were circumcised, euen all that went out of the gate of his citie.
Assensique sunt omnes, circumcisis cunctis maribus.
25 And on the thirde day (when they were sore) two of the sonnes of Iaakob, Simeon and Leui, Dinahs brethren tooke either of them his sworde and went into the citie boldly, and slue euery male.
Et ecce, die tertio quando gravissimus vulnerum dolor est: arreptis, duo filii Iacob, Simeon et Levi fratres Dinae, gladiis, ingressi sunt urbem confidenter: interfectisque omnibus masculis,
26 They slewe also Hamor and Shechem his sonne with the edge of the sword, and tooke Dinah out of Shechems house, and went their way.
Hemor et Sichem pariter necaverunt, tollentes Dinam de domo Sichem sororem suam.
27 Againe the other sonnes of Iaakob came vpon the dead, and spoyled the citie, because they had defiled their sister.
Quibus egressis, irruerunt super occisos ceteri filii Iacob: et depopulati sunt urbem in ultionem stupri.
28 They tooke their sheepe and their beeues, and their asses, and whatsoeuer was in the citie, and in the fieldes.
Oves eorum, et armenta, et asinos, cunctaque vastantes quae in domibus et in agris erant,
29 Also they caryed away captiue and spoyled all their goods, and all their children and their wiues, and all that was in the houses.
parvulos quoque eorum et uxores duxerunt captivas.
30 Then Iaakob said to Simeon and Leui, Ye haue troubled me, and made me stinke among the inhabitats of the land, aswell the Canaanites, as the Perizzites, and and I being few in nomber, they shall gather theselues together against me, and slay me, and so shall I, and my house be destroied.
Quibus patratis audacter, Iacob dixit ad Simeon et Levi: Turbastis me, et odiosum fecistis me Chananaeis, et Pherezaeis habitatoribus terrae huius. nos pauci sumus: illi congregati percutient me, et delebor ego, et domus mea.
31 And they answered, Shoulde hee abuse our sister as a whore?
Responderunt: Numquid ut scorto abuti debuere sorore nostra?
