Genesis 34
1 And Dinah the daughter of Leah, which she bare unto Jacob, went out to see the daughters of the land.
Egressa est autem Dina filia Liæ ut videret mulieres regionis illius.
2 And when Shechem the son of Hamor the Hivite, prince of the country, saw her, he took her, and lay with her, and defiled her.
Quam cum vidisset Sichem filius Hemor Hevæi, princeps terræ illius, adamavit eam: et rapuit, et dormivit cum illa, vi opprimens virginem.
3 And his soul clave unto Dinah the daughter of Jacob, and he loved the damsel, and spake kindly unto the damsel.
Et conglutinata est anima eius cum ea, tristemque delinivit blanditiis.
4 And Shechem spake unto his father Hamor, saying, Get me this damsel to wife.
Et pergens ad Hemor patrem suum, Accipe, inquit, mihi puellam hanc coniugem.
5 And Jacob heard that he had defiled Dinah his daughter: now his sons were with his cattle in the field: and Jacob held his peace until they were come.
Quod cum audisset Iacob, absentibus filiis, et in pastu pecorum occupatis, siluit donec redirent.
6 And Hamor the father of Shechem went out unto Jacob to commune with him.
Egresso autem Hemor patre Sichem ut loqueretur ad Iacob,
7 And the sons of Jacob came out of the field when they heard it: and the men were grieved, and they were very wroth, because he had wrought folly in Israel in lying with Jacob's daughter; which thing ought not to be done.
ecce filii eius veniebant de agro: auditoque quod acciderat, irati sunt valde, eo quod fœdam rem operatus esset in Israel et, violata filia Iacob, rem illicitam perpetrasset.
8 And Hamor communed with them, saying, The soul of my son Shechem longeth for your daughter: I pray you give her him to wife.
Locutus est itaque Hemor ad eos: Sichem filii mei adhæsit anima filiæ vestræ: date eam illi uxorem:
9 And make ye marriages with us, and give your daughters unto us, and take our daughters unto you.
et iungamus vicissim connubia: filias vestras tradite nobis, et filias nostras accipite.
10 And ye shall dwell with us: and the land shall be before you; dwell and trade ye therein, and get you possessions therein.
Et habitate nobiscum: terra in potestate vestra est, exercete, negotiamini, et possidete eam.
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.
Sed et Sichem ad patrem et ad fratres eius ait: Inveniam gratiam coram vobis: et quæcumque statueritis, dabo:
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.
augete dotem, et munera postulate, et libenter tribuam quod petieritis: tantum date mihi puellam hanc uxorem.
13 And the sons of Jacob answered Shechem and Hamor his father deceitfully, and said, because he had defiled Dinah their sister:
Responderunt filii Iacob Sichem et patri eius in dolo, sævientes ob stuprum sororis:
14 And they said unto them, We cannot do this thing, to give our sister to one that is uncircumcised; for that were a reproach unto us:
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 unto you: If ye will be as we be, that every male of you be circumcised;
Sed in hoc valebimus fœderari, si volueritis esse similes nostri, et circumcidatur in vobis omne masculini sexus;
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.
tunc dabimus et accipiemus mutuo filias vestras, ac nostras: et habitabimus vobiscum, erimusque unus populus:
17 But if ye will not hearken unto us, to be circumcised; then will we take our daughter, and we will be gone.
si autem circumcidi nolueritis, tollemus filiam nostram, et recedemus.
18 And their words pleased Hamor, and Shechem Hamor's son.
Placuit oblatio eorum Hemor, et Sichem filio eius:
19 And the young man deferred not to do the thing, because he had delight in Jacob's daughter: and he was more honourable than all the house of his father.
nec distulit adolescens quin statim quod petebatur expleret: amabat enim puellam valde, et ipse erat inclytus in omni domo patris sui.
20 And Hamor and Shechem his son came unto the gate of their city, and communed with the men of their city, saying,
Ingressique portam urbis, locuti sunt ad populum:
21 These men are peaceable with us; therefore let them dwell in the land, and trade therein; for the land, behold, it is large enough for them; let us take their daughters to us for wives, and let us give them our daughters.
Viri isti pacifici sunt, et volunt habitare nobiscum: negotientur in terra, et exerceant eam, quæ spatiosa et lata cultoribus indiget: filias eorum accipiemus uxores, et nostras illis dabimus.
22 Only herein will the men consent unto us for to dwell with us, to be one people, if every male among us be circumcised, as they are circumcised.
Unum est quo differtur tantum bonum: Si circumcidamus masculos nostros, ritum gentis imitantes.
23 Shall not their cattle and their substance and every beast of theirs be ours? only let us consent unto them, and they will dwell with us.
Et substantia eorum, et pecora, et cuncta quæ possident, nostra erunt: tantum in hoc acquiescamus, et habitantes simul, unum efficiemus populum.
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.
Assensique sunt omnes, circumcisis cunctis maribus.
25 And it came to pass on the third day, when they were sore, that two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brethren, took each man his sword, and came upon the city boldly, and slew all the males.
Et ecce, die tertio quando gravissimus vulnerum dolor est: arreptis, duo filii Iacob, Simeon et Levi fratres Dinæ, gladiis, ingressi sunt urbem confidenter: interfectisque omnibus masculis,
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 out.
Hemor et Sichem pariter necaverunt, tollentes Dinam de domo Sichem sororem suam.
27 The sons of Jacob came upon the slain, and spoiled the city, because they had defiled their sister.
Quibus egressis, irruerunt super occisos ceteri filii Iacob: et depopulati sunt urbem in ultionem stupri.
28 They took their sheep, and their oxen, and their asses, and that which was in the city, and that which was in the field,
Oves eorum, et armenta, et asinos, cunctaque vastantes quæ in domibus et in agris erant,
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.
parvulos quoque eorum et uxores duxerunt captivas.
30 And Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, Ye have troubled me to make me to stink among the inhabitants of the land, among the Canaanites and the Perizzites: and I being few in number, they shall gather themselves together against me, and slay me; and I shall be destroyed, I and my house.
Quibus patratis audacter, Iacob dixit ad Simeon et Levi: Turbastis me, et odiosum fecistis me Chananæis, et Pherezæis habitatoribus terræ huius. nos pauci sumus: illi congregati percutient me, et delebor ego, et domus mea.
31 And they said, Should he deal with our sister as with an harlot?
Responderunt: Numquid ut scorto abuti debuere sorore nostra?
