Genesis 34
1 And Dina, the daughter of Lea, whom she bore to Jacob, went forth to observe the daughters of the inhabitants.
Entonces Dina, la hija que Lea dio a luz a Jacob, salió a ver a las hijas de aquella tierra.
2 And Sychem the son of Emmor the Evite, the ruler of the land, saw her, and took her and lay with her, and humbled her.
Siquem, hijo de Hamor, el heveo príncipe de aquella tierra, la miró y la tomó. Se unió a ella y la deshonró.
3 And he was attached to the soul of Dina the daughter of Jacob, and he loved the damsel, and he spoke kindly to the damsel.
Pero su alma se apegó a Dina, hija de Jacob. Se enamoró de la muchacha y habló amorosamente a la joven.
4 Sychem spoke to Emmor his father, saying, Take for me this damsel to wife.
Siquem habló a su padre Hamor: Tómame a esta jovencita para que sea mi esposa.
5 And Jacob heard that the son of Emmor had defiled Dina his daughter (now his sons were with his cattle in the plain). And Jacob was silent until they came.
Jacob oyó que Siquem contaminó a su hija Dina. Pero como sus hijos estaban con su ganado en el campo, Jacob guardó silencio hasta cuando ellos llegaran.
6 And Emmor the father of Sychem went forth to Jacob, to speak to him.
Entonces Hamor, padre de Siquem, salió para hablar con Jacob.
7 And the sons of Jacob came from the plain; and when they heard, the men were deeply pained, and it was very grievous to them, because [the man] wrought folly in Israel, having lain with the daughter of Jacob, and so it must not be.
Cuando los hijos de Jacob regresaron del campo y lo supieron, aquellos varones se airaron. Se enardecieron muchísimo, porque Siquem hizo una vileza en Israel con la hija de Jacob, lo cual no se debía hacer.
8 And Emmor spoke to them, saying, Sychem my son has chosen in his heart your daughter; give her therefore to him for a wife,
Pero Hamor habló con ellos y les dijo: El alma de mi hijo Siquem se apegó a la hija de ustedes. Les ruego que se la den para que sea su esposa.
9 and intermarry with us. Give us your daughters, and take our daughters for your sons.
Emparenten con nosotros. Dennos sus hijas y tomen nuestras hijas para ustedes.
10 And dwell in the midst of us; and, behold, the land is spacious before you, dwell in it, and trade, and get possessions in it.
Vivan con nosotros. La tierra está delante de ustedes. Vivan y negocien y adquieran posesión en ella.
11 And Sychem said to her father and to her brothers, I would find grace before you, and we will give whatever you shall name.
Y Siquem dijo al padre de ella y a sus hermanos: Halle yo gracia ante ustedes, y daré lo que me digan.
12 Multiply [your demand of] dowry very much, and I will give accordingly as you shall say to me, only you shall give me this damsel for a wife.
Aumenten mucha dote y regalos a mi cargo, que yo daré cuanto me digan, pero denme la muchacha para que sea mi esposa.
13 And the sons of Jacob answered to Sychem and Emmor his father craftily, and spoke to them, because they had defiled Dina their sister.
Los hijos de Jacob respondieron con doblez a Siquem y a Hamor su padre, porque Siquem violó a su hermana Dina.
14 And Symeon and Levi, the brothers of Dina, said to them, We shall not be able to do this thing, to give our sister to a man who is uncircumcised, for it is a reproach to us.
Les dijeron: No podemos hacer esto de dar nuestra hermana a un hombre que tenga prepucio, porque es afrenta para nosotros.
15 Only on these terms will we conform to you, and dwell among you, if you also will be as we are, in that every male of you be circumcised.
Solo con esto los consentiremos: que sean como nosotros, al circuncidar todo varón de ustedes.
16 And we will give our daughters to you, and we will take of your daughters for wives to us, and we will dwell with you, and we will be as one race.
Entonces les daremos nuestras hijas y tomaremos las de ustedes. Viviremos con ustedes y seremos un pueblo.
17 But if you will not listen to us to be circumcised, we will take our daughter and depart.
Pero si no aceptan circuncidarse, entonces tomaremos nuestra hija y nos iremos.
18 And the words pleased Emmor, and Sychem the son of Emmor.
Las palabras de ellos parecieron buenas a Hamor y a Siquem, hijo de Hamor.
19 And the young man delayed not to do this thing, for he was much attached to Jacob's daughter, and he was the most honorable of all in his father's house.
No demoró el joven en hacerlo, porque se deleitaba con la hija de Jacob. Él era el más distinguido de toda la casa de su padre.
20 And Emmor and Sychem his son came to the gate of their city, and spoke to the men of their city, saying,
Hamor y su hijo Siquem fueron a la puerta de su ciudad y hablaron a los hombres de su ciudad:
21 These men are peaceful, let them dwell with us upon the land, and let them trade in it, and behold the land is extensive before them; we will take their daughters to us for wives, and we will give them our daughters.
Estos hombres son pacíficos con nosotros. Vivirán en la tierra y negociarán en ella. Pues miren, la tierra es bastante amplia para ellos. Tomaremos sus hijas para que sean nuestras esposas, y les daremos nuestras hijas.
22 Only on these terms will the men conform to us to dwell with us so as to be one people, if every male of us be circumcised, as they also are circumcised.
Pero solo con esto consentirán en vivir con nosotros para ser un pueblo: que todo varón nuestro sea circuncidado, así como ellos son circuncidados.
23 And shall not their cattle and their herds, and their possessions, be ours? only in this let us conform to them, and they will dwell with us.
¿Entonces no serán nuestros su ganado, sus bienes y todos sus animales? Solo convengamos con ellos, y vivirán con nosotros.
24 And all that went in at the gate of their city listened to Emmor and Sychem his son, and they were circumcised in the flesh of their foreskin every male.
Todos los que salían por la puerta de su ciudad obedecieron a Hamor y a su hijo Siquem, y circuncidaron a todo varón que salía por la puerta de su ciudad.
25 And it came to pass on the third day, when they were in pain, the two sons of Jacob, Symeon and Levi, Dina's brethren, took each man his sword, and came upon the city securely, and killed every male.
Aconteció al tercer día, cuando ellos estaban más adoloridos, que dos de los hijos de Jacob, Simeón y Leví, hermanos de Dina, después de tomar cada uno su espada, salieron contra la ciudad desprevenida y asesinaron a todos los varones.
26 And they killed Emmor and Sychem his son with the edge of the sword, and took Dina out of the house of Sychem, and went forth.
Asesinaron a filo de espada a Hamor y a su hijo Siquem, sacaron a Dina de la casa de Siquem y salieron.
27 But the sons of Jacob came upon the wounded, and ravaged the city wherein they had defiled Dina their sister.
Los hijos de Jacob pasaron sobre los muertos y saquearon la ciudad, por cuanto violaron a su hermana.
28 And their sheep, and their oxen, and their asses they took, and all things whatever were in the city, and whatever were in the plain.
Tomaron sus ovejas, su ganado vacuno y sus asnos, lo que estaba en la ciudad, lo que estaba en el campo
29 And they took captive all the persons of them, and all their store, and their wives, and plundered both whatever things there were in the city, and whatever things there were in the houses.
y toda su hacienda. Se llevaron cautivas a todas sus criaturas y sus mujeres, y saquearon todo lo que había en las casas.
30 And Jacob said to Symeon and Levi, You have made me hateful so that I should be evil to all the inhabitants of the land, both among the Chananites and the Pherezites, and I am few in number; they will gather themselves against me and cut me in pieces, and I shall be utterly destroyed, and my house.
Entonces Jacob dijo a Simeón y a Leví: Ustedes me arruinaron al hacer que yo sea odioso ante los habitantes de esta tierra, el cananeo y el ferezeo. Por cuanto tengo pocos hombres, se juntarán contra mí y me atacarán. Yo y mi casa seremos exterminados.
31 And they said, Nay, but shall they treat our sister as an harlot?
Pero dijeron ellos: ¿Debía él tratar a nuestra hermana como a una prostituta?
