Genesis 34
1 And Dinah the daughter of Leah, whom she had born unto Jacob, went out to look about among the daughters of the land.
Basi Dina, binti wa Yakobo aliyezaliwa na Lea, akatoka nje kuwatembelea wanawake wa nchi ile.
2 And Shechem the son of Chamor the Hivite, the prince of the country, saw her; and he took her, and lay with her, and did her violence.
Ikawa Shekemu mwana wa Hamori Mhivi, mtawala wa eneo lile alipomwona, akamchukua na kumnajisi.
3 And his soul clave unto Dinah the daughter of Jacob, and he loved the maiden, and spoke kindly unto the maiden.
Moyo wake ukavutwa sana kwa Dina binti Yakobo, akampenda huyu msichana na akazungumza naye kwa kumbembeleza.
4 And Shechem spoke unto Chamor his father, saying, Get me this girl for wife.
Shekemu akamwambia baba yake Hamori, “Nipatie msichana huyu awe mke wangu.”
5 And Jacob heard that he had defiled Dinah his daughter; but his sons were with his cattle in the field: and Jacob held his peace until they were come.
Yakobo aliposikia kwamba binti yake Dina amenajisiwa, wanawe walikuwa mashambani wakichunga mifugo yake, kwa hiyo akalinyamazia jambo hilo mpaka waliporudi nyumbani.
6 And Chamor the father of Shechem went out unto to Jacob to speak with him.
Kisha Hamori baba yake Shekemu akaenda kuzungumza na Yakobo.
7 And the sons of Jacob came from the field when they heard it, and the men were grieved, and it excited their anger greatly; because he had wrought a disgraceful thing in Israel to lie with the daughter of Jacob, and this ought not to be done.
Basi wana wa Yakobo walikuwa wamerudi kutoka mashambani mara tu waliposikia kilichotokea. Walikuwa wamejawa na huzuni na ghadhabu, kwa sababu Shekemu alikuwa amefanya jambo la aibu katika Israeli kwa kukutana kimwili na binti wa Yakobo, kitu ambacho hakingepasa kufanyika.
8 And Chamor spoke with them, saying, The soul of Shechem my son longeth for your daughter; give her, I pray you, unto him for wife.
Lakini Hamori akawaambia, “Moyo wa mwanangu Shekemu umeelekea kwa binti yenu. Tafadhali mpeni awe mke wake.
9 And intermarry with us; your daughters ye shall give unto us, and our daughters ye may take unto yourselves.
Oaneni na sisi, tupeni binti zenu, nanyi mchukue binti zetu.
10 And with us shall ye dwell; and the land shall be open before you; dwell and trade ye therein, and acquire possessions therein.
Mwaweza kuishi katikati yetu, nchi ni wazi kwenu. Ishini ndani yake, fanyeni biashara humu na mjipatie mali.”
11 And Shechem said unto her father and unto her brother, Let me but find grace in your eyes, and whatever ye may say unto me, I will give.
Kisha Shekemu akamwambia baba yake Dina pamoja na ndugu zake, “Na nipate kibali machoni penu, nami nitawapa chochote mtakachosema.
12 Ask of me ever so much dowry and gift, and I will give, just as ye may say unto me; but give me the maiden for wife.
Niambieni kiasi cha mahari na zawadi nitakayoileta, hata iwe kubwa kiasi gani, nami nitawalipa chochote mtakachodai. Nipeni tu huyu msichana awe mke wangu.”
13 And the sons of Jacob answered Shechem and Chamor his father with cunning, and spoke; because he had defiled Dinah their sister.
Kwa sababu ndugu yao Dina alikuwa amenajisiwa, wana wa Yakobo wakajibu kwa udanganyifu walipozungumza na Shekemu pamoja na baba yake Hamori.
14 And they said unto them, We cannot do this thing, to give our sister to one that is uncircumcised; for that would be a reproach unto us.
Wakawaambia, “Hatuwezi kufanya jambo kama hili, hatuwezi kumtoa dada yetu kwa mtu ambaye hakutahiriwa. Hiyo itakuwa aibu kwetu.
15 But on this condition will we consent unto you; if ye will become as we are, that every male of you be circumcised:
Tutakuruhusu kwa sharti moja tu, kwamba mtakuwa kama sisi kwa kuwatahiri wanaume wenu wote.
16 Then will we give our daughters unto you, and we will take your daughters unto us; and we will dwell with you, and we will become one people.
Kisha tutawapa binti zetu na sisi tutawachukua binti zenu. Tutaishi kwenu na tutakuwa watu wamoja nanyi.
17 But if ye will not hearken unto us, to be circumcised, then will we take our daughter, and go our way.
Lakini mkikataa kutahiriwa, tutamchukua ndugu yetu na kuondoka.”
18 And their words were pleasing in the eyes of Chamor, and in the eyes of Shechem, the son of Chamor.
Pendekezo lao likawa jema kwa Hamori na Shekemu mwanawe.
19 And the young man deferred not to do the thing, because he had delight in Jacob's daughter; and he was the most honored of all the house of his father.
Kijana mdogo, ambaye alikuwa ameheshimiwa kati ya wote walioishi nyumbani mwa baba yake, hakupoteza muda kufanya waliyoyasema, kwa sababu alikuwa amependezwa sana na binti Yakobo.
20 And Chamor and Shechem his son came unto the gate of their city, and spoke with the men of their city, saying,
Kwa hiyo Hamori na Shekemu mwanawe walikwenda kwenye lango la mji kuzungumza na wenzao wa mjini.
21 These men are peaceably inclined with us; therefore let them dwell in the land, and trade therein; and the land, behold, it is large enough on all sides before them; their daughters we will take unto us for wives, and our daughters we will give unto them.
Wakasema, “Hawa watu ni marafiki kwetu, tuwaruhusu waishi katika nchi yetu na kufanya biashara ndani yake, nchi ina nafasi tele kwa ajili yao. Tunaweza kuoa binti zao. Nao wanaweza kuoa binti zetu.
22 Only with 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.
Lakini watu hao watakuwa tayari kukubali kuishi nasi kama watu wamoja nao kwa sharti kwamba wanaume wetu watahiriwe, kama wao.
23 Their cattle and their substance and every beast of theirs will they not be ours? only let us consent unto them, that they may dwell with us.
Je, si mifugo yao, mali zao na wanyama wao wengine wote watakuwa wetu? Basi na tuwape kibali, nao wataishi miongoni mwetu.”
24 And unto Chamor and unto Shechem his son hearkened all that went out of the gate of his city; and all the males were circumcised, all that went out of the gate of his city.
Wanaume wote waliotoka nje ya lango la mji walikubaliana na Hamori na Shekemu mwanawe na kila mwanaume katika mji ule akatahiriwa.
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 brothers, took each his sword, and came upon the city unresisted and slew all the males.
Baada ya siku tatu, wakati wote wakiwa wangali katika maumivu, wana wawili wa Yakobo, yaani Simeoni na Lawi, ndugu zake Dina, wakachukua panga zao na kuvamia mji ambao haukutazamia vita, wakaua kila mwanaume.
26 And they slew Chamor and Shechem his son with the edge of the sword; and they took Dinah out of Shechem's house, and went out.
Wakawaua Hamori na Shekemu mwanawe kwa upanga kisha wakamchukua Dina kutoka nyumba ya Shekemu na kuondoka.
27 The sons of Jacob came upon the slain, and spoiled the city, because they had defiled their sister.
Wana wa Yakobo walipita juu ya maiti katika kuteka nyara mji ule ambamo dada yao alikuwa amenajisiwa.
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.
Wakachukua kondoo na mbuzi, ngʼombe, punda na kila kitu kilichokuwa chao ndani ya mji ule na mashambani.
29 And all their wealth, and all their little ones, and their wives they took captive, and spoiled; and all that was in the house.
Walichukua utajiri wao wote pamoja na wanawake na watoto wao, wakachukua nyara kila kitu ndani ya nyumba zao.
30 And Jacob said unto Simeon and Levi, Ye have troubled me, to cause me to be hated among the inhabitants of the land, among the Canaanites and the Perizzites: and as I am but few in number, they may gather themselves together against me, and slay me; and I would be destroyed, I and my house.
Kisha Yakobo akawaambia Simeoni na Lawi, “Mmeleta taabu kwangu kwa kunifanya ninuke kama uvundo kwa Wakanaani na Waperizi, watu waishio katika nchi hii. Sisi ni wachache, kama wakiunganisha nguvu zao dhidi yangu na kunishambulia, mimi na nyumba yangu tutaangamizwa.”
31 And they said, Should he deal with our sister as with a harlot?
Lakini wakamjibu, “Je, ilikuwa vyema kumtendea dada yetu kama kahaba?”
