Genesis 34
1 And Dinah the daughter of Leah, whom she had borne unto Jacob, went out to see the daughters of the land.
Gbe ɖeka la, Dina, Lea ƒe vinyɔnu si wòdzi na Yakob la ɖi tsa be yeakpɔ ye xɔlɔ̃ ɖetugbi aɖewo ɖa.
2 And Shechem the son of Hamor the Hivite, the prince of the land, saw her; and he took her, and lay with her, and humbled her.
Ke esi Fia Hamor, Hivitɔ ƒe viŋutsu, Sekem kpɔe la, elée hedɔ egbɔ sesẽtɔe.
3 And his soul did cleave unto Dinah the daughter of Jacob, and he loved the damsel, and spoke comfortingly unto the damsel.
Sekem lɔ̃ Dina si nye Yakob ƒe vinyɔnu vevie, eye wòdze agbagba be eya hã nalɔ̃ ye to enubeble me.
4 And Shechem spoke unto his father Hamor, saying: 'Get me this damsel to wife.'
Sekem gblɔ na fofoa Hamor be, “Medi be maɖe ɖetugbi sia, eya ta ɖee nam.”
5 Now Jacob heard that he had defiled Dinah his daughter; and his sons were with his cattle in the field; and Jacob held his peace until they came.
Nu si Sekem wɔ ɖe Dina ŋu la va ɖo Yakob ƒe to me. Esi via ŋutsuwo nɔ nyi kplɔm le gbedzi hafi wòse nya la ta la, mewɔ naneke tso nya la ŋu o va se ɖe esime via ŋutsuawo trɔ gbɔ.
6 And Hamor the father of Shechem went out unto Jacob to speak with him.
Tete Sekem fofo, Hamor do go be yeaƒo nu kple Yakob.
7 And the sons of Jacob came in from the field when they heard it; and the men were grieved, and they were very wroth, because he had wrought a vile deed in Israel in lying with Jacob's daughter; which thing ought not to be done.
Azɔ la, Yakob ƒe viŋutsuwo gbɔ tso gbedzi esime wose nya si dzɔ la. Vevesese kple dziku yɔ wo me, elabena Sekem wɔ ŋukpenanu le Israel esime wòdɔ Yakob ƒe vinyɔnu gbɔ sesẽtɔe, nu si mele be wòawɔ o.
8 And Hamor spoke with them, saying 'The soul of my son Shechem longeth for your daughter. I pray you give her unto him to wife.
Hamor gblɔ na Yakob be, “Vinye Sekem lɔ̃ viwò Dina ŋutɔ, eye wòdi vevie be wòazu ye srɔ̃. Meɖe kuku, ɖe mɔ nɛ wòaɖee.
9 And make ye marriages with us; give your daughters unto us, and take our daughters unto you.
Mina míaɖe srɔ̃ le mía nɔewo dome; mitsɔ miaƒe vinyɔnuwo na mí, eye míawo hã míatsɔ míaƒe vinyɔnuwo na mi miaɖe.
10 And ye shall dwell with us; and the land shall be before you; dwell and trade ye therein, and get you possessions therein.'
Miate ŋu atsi mía dome; anyigba la li faa na mi. Minɔ edzi, mitsa asi le edzi, eye miakpɔ viɖe le edzi.”
11 And Shechem said unto her father and unto her brethren: 'Let me find favour in your eyes, and what ye shall say unto me I will give.
Emegbe la, Sekem gblɔ na Dina fofo kple nɔvia ŋutsuwo be, “Meɖe kuku, mive nunye, eye miana Dina nazu srɔ̃nye. Mana nu sia nu si miabia la mi.
12 Ask me never so much dowry and gift, and I will give according as ye shall say unto me; but give me the damsel to wife.'
Tabianu alo nunana ka ke miabia la, mana mi; mina wòazu srɔ̃nye ko!”
13 And the sons of Jacob answered Shechem and Hamor his father with guile, and spoke, because he had defiled Dinah their sister,
Yakob ƒe viŋutsuwo ble Sekem kple Hamor; wowɔ nu madzɔmadzɔ sia ɖe nu si Sekem wɔ ɖe wo nɔvinyɔnu Dina ŋu ta.
14 and said unto them: 'We cannot do this thing, to give our sister to one that is uncircumcised; for that were a reproach unto us.
Wogblɔ be, “Míate ŋui gbeɖe o, elabena mietso aʋa o. Anye ŋukpe na mía nɔvinyɔnu la be wòaɖe bolobolotɔ.
15 Only on this condition will we consent unto you: if ye will be as we are, that every male of you be circumcised;
Nu si míawɔ lae nye be ne miaƒe ŋutsuwo dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe atso aʋa la,
16 then will we give our daughters unto you, and we will take your daughters to us, and we will dwell with you, and we will become one people.
ekema miaɖe míaƒe nyɔnuwo, eye míaƒe ŋutsuwo hã aɖe miaƒe nyɔnuwo, míanɔ mia gbɔ, eye míawɔ ɖeka kpli mi, míazu dukɔ ɖeka.
17 But if ye will not hearken unto us, to be circumcised; then will we take our daughter, and we will be gone.'
“Ne mielɔ̃ ɖe edzi eye wotso aʋa na mi o la, ekema míaxɔ mía nɔvinyɔnu la, eye míaʋu le mia gbɔ.”
18 And their words pleased Hamor, and Shechem Hamor's son.
Nya sia trɔ na Hamor kple Via ŋutsu Sekem.
19 And the young man deferred not to do the thing, because he had delight in Jacob's daughter. And he was honoured above all the house of his father.
Ɖekakpui la, ame si nye bubume wu ame bubuawo katã le fofoa ƒe aƒe me la wɔ ɖe ɖoɖo si wowɔ la dzi enumake, elabena elɔ̃ Yakob ƒe vinyɔnu la.
20 And Hamor and Shechem his son came unto the gate of their city, and spoke with the men of their city, saying:
Ale Hamor kple Sekem wɔ takpekpe kple dua me ŋutsuwo katã le dua ƒe agbo nu, eye wòtsɔ nya la ɖo wo ŋkume.
21 'These men are peaceable with us; therefore let them dwell in the land, and trade therein; for, behold, the land is large enough for them; let us take their daughters to us for wives, and let us give them our daughters.
Hamor kple Sekem gblɔ be, “Ameawo nye mía xɔlɔ̃wo. Mina míana woatsi afi sia, anɔ mía dome, eye woawɔ woƒe dɔ, elabena míaƒe anyigba lolo; woakpɔ teƒe le edzi, woaɖe srɔ̃ tso mía dome, eye míawo hã míaɖe wo viwo.
22 Only on this condition will the men consent unto us to dwell with us, to become one people, if every male among us be circumcised, as they are circumcised.
Ke hafi esia nate ŋu ava eme la, nu ɖeka koe wobia; eyae nye be míaƒe ŋutsu ɖe sia ɖe natso aʋa abe woawo ene.
23 Shall not their cattle and their substance and all their beasts be ours? only let us consent unto them, and they will dwell with us.'
“Ne míewɔ esia la, ekema woƒe lãhawo, kesinɔnuwo kple dɔwɔlã siwo nye wo tɔ la azu mía tɔ, eye kesinɔnuwo ava míaƒe dukɔa me. Mina míalɔ̃ ɖe woƒe biabia sia dzi, ale be woanɔ mía dome.”
24 And unto Hamor and unto Shechem his son hearkened all that went out of the gate of his city; and every male was circumcised, all that went out of the gate of his city.
Ke Ŋutsu siwo katã va ƒo ƒu ɖe dua ƒe agbo nu la, ɖo to Hamor kple via Sekem eye wolɔ̃, wotso aʋa na wo katã.
25 And it came to pass on the third day, when they were in pain, that two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brethren, took each man his sword, and came upon the city unawares, and slew all the males.
Ke le ŋkeke etɔ̃ megbe esi abia le wo vem la, Yakob ƒe viŋutsu eve, Simeon kple Levi siwo nye Dina nɔviwo la tsɔ woƒe yiwo, ge ɖe dua me, eye wowu ŋutsu ɖe sia ɖe.
26 And they slew Hamor and Shechem his son with the edge of the sword, and took Dinah out of Shechem's house, and went forth.
Wowu Hamor kple Sekem hã, eye wokplɔ Dina tso Sekem ƒe aƒe me hetrɔ yi wo nɔƒe.
27 The sons of Jacob came upon the slain, and spoiled the city, because they had defiled their sister.
Emegbe Yakob ƒe viwo katã yi dua me, eye woha nuwo le dua me ɖe esi wogblẽ wo nɔvinyɔnu la ta.
28 They took their flocks and their herds and their asses, and that which was in the city and that which was in the field;
Wolé woƒe alẽwo, nyiwo kple tedziwo kpakple nu siwo katã dzi woƒe asi su le dua me kple woƒe agblewo me la hã.
29 and all their wealth, and all their little ones and their wives, took they captive and spoiled, even all that was in the house.
Wokplɔ woƒe nyɔnuwo kple ɖeviwo siaa dzoe, eye woha kesinɔnu ɖe sia ɖe ƒomevi.
30 And Jacob said to Simeon and Levi: 'Ye have troubled me, to make me odious unto the inhabitants of the land, even unto the Canaanites and the Perizzites; and, I being few in number, they will gather themselves together against me and smite me; and I shall be destroyed, I and my house.'
Yakob gblɔ na Levi kple Simeon be, “Miena medze agɔ le anyigba sia dzi tɔwo katã, Kanaantɔwo kple Perizitɔwo siaa dzi. Míesɔ gbɔ o, eya ta ne woho aʋa ɖe mía ŋu la, woafiti mí, eye woawu mí katã.”
31 And they said: 'Should one deal with our sister as with a harlot?'
Woɖo eŋu be, “Ɖe wònyo be Sekem nabu mía nɔvinyɔnu la abe gbolo enea?”
