Genesis 34
1 One day Dinah, the daughter of Jacob and Leah, went to visit some of the women in that area.
Dena, pitit fi Leya te fè pou Jakòb la, te soti al rann medam peyi a vizit.
2 Shechem, one of the sons of Hamor, the ruler of that area who was descended from the Hiv people-group, saw her. He wanted her. So he grabbed her and forced her to have sex [EUP] with him.
Lè sa a, Sichèm, pitit Amò, moun Evi a, te chèf nan kanton an. Lè li wè Dena, li mete men sou li, li fè kadejak sou li.
3 He [SYN] was very much attracted to her, and fell in love with her, and he tried to get her to love him.
Men Sichèm te tonbe damou pou Dena, pitit fi Jakòb la. Li te pale dous ak tifi a, paske li te renmen l'.
4 So Shechem said to his father Hamor, “Please get this girl for me. I want her to become my wife!”
Sichèm di Amò, papa l': -Al mande pou fi sa a pou mwen.
5 Jacob very soon found out that his daughter Dinah had been disgraced/defiled. But his sons were in the fields with his livestock, so he did nothing about it until they returned home.
Jakòb vin konnen Sichèm te fè kadejak sou Dena, pitit fi li a. Men, paske pitit gason l' yo te nan savann ak bèt yo, li pa di anyen jouk lè yo tounen.
6 In the meantime, Shechem’s father Hamor went to talk with Jacob.
Amò, papa Sichèm, ale bò kot Jakòb pou fè yon pale sou sa avè l'.
7 While they were still talking, Jacob’s sons came in from the field. When they found out what had happened, they were shocked and very angry. They said, “Shechem has done something that is very disgraceful among us Israeli people, something that never should be done!”
Lè sa a, pitit gason Jakòb yo t'ap tounen soti nan savann. Lè yo pran nouvèl la, yo te move, yo te fache anpil, paske Sichèm te fè yon bagay grav: li te avili moun Izrayèl yo lè l' te fè kadejak sou pitit fi Jakòb la. Bagay konsa pa t' dwe fèt.
8 But Hamor said to them, “My son Shechem really likes this girl. Please allow him to marry her.
Amò di yo konsa: -Pitit gason m' lan, Sichèm, fin fou pou fi nou an. Tanpri, kite li marye avè l'.
9 Let’s make an agreement: You will give your daughters to our young men to be their wives, and we will give our daughters to your young men to be their wives.
Ann pase kontra yonn ak lòt pou nou zanmi. n'a ban nou nan pitit fi nou yo pou madanm pitit gason nou yo. n'a pran nan pitit fi nou yo pou madanm pitit gason nou yo.
10 You can live among us, and live anywhere in our land that you wish. You can buy and sell things (OR, travel around) and if you find land that you want, then you can buy it.”
Konsa n'a rete ansanm ak nou nan peyi a. n'a rete kote nou vle, n'a fè kòmès jan nou vle, n'a achte tè nou vle.
11 Then Shechem said to Dinah’s father and brothers, “If you feel good toward me and do what I am asking for, I will give you whatever you ask for.
Apre sa, Sichèm di papa ak frè Dena yo: -Fè m' favè sa a, tanpri. m'a ban nou tout sa nou vle.
12 Tell me what gifts you want and what bride price you want, and I will give you what you ask for. I just want you to give the girl to me to be my wife.”
Di m' kisa pou m' fè nou kado. Nou mèt mande m' nenpòt ki gwo pri pou maryaj la. M'ap ban nou tout sa n'a mande m'. Men, se pou nou dakò. Kite m' marye ak fi a.
13 But because Shechem had done a shameful thing to their sister Dinah, the sons of Jacob deceived Shechem and his father Hamor
Men pitit gason Jakòb yo bay Sichèm ak Amò, papa li, yon repons pou woule yo. Paske Sichèm te avili sè yo a, yo t'ap pare yon move kou pou yo.
14 by saying to them, “No, we cannot do that. We cannot give our sister to be the wife of a man who is not circumcised, because that would be a shameful thing for us to do.
Yo di yo: -Nou pa ka kite sè nou an marye ak yon nonm ki pa sikonsi. Se va yon avilisman pou nou.
15 We will do that only if you do one thing: You must become like us by circumcising all the males that are among you.
N'ap dakò nan yon sèl kondisyon. Se pou nou vin menm jan ak nou, se pou tout gason nan kanton an sikonsi tankou nou.
16 Then we will give our daughters to your young men to be your wives, and we will take your daughters to be the wives of our young men. We will live among you, and we will become one people-group.
Lè sa a atò, n'a kite sè nou an marye avè ou. Nou menm tout n'a ka marye ak pitit fi ou yo. n'a rete nan peyi a ansanm ansanm, n'a tounen yon sèl pèp.
17 But if you will not agree to being circumcised, we will take our sister and go back to our land.”
Men, si nou pa dakò ak kondisyon sa a, si nou pa vle pou yo sikonsi nou, n'ap pran sè nou an, epi nou pral fè wout nou.
18 What they said pleased Hamor and his son Shechem.
Amò ak Sichèm, pitit gason l' lan, tonbe dakò ak yo pou kondisyon an.
19 Shechem was very much in love with Jacob’s daughter, so he quickly agreed to do what they suggested.
Se konsa jenn gason an te prese fè sa yo te mande l' fè a, paske li te renmen pitit fi Jakòb la anpil. tout moun kay papa l' te konsidere l' anpil.
20 Shechem went with Hamor to the meeting place near the city gate, and they spoke to the city leaders, saying,
Amò ak Sichèm, pitit gason l' lan, al nan pòtay lavil la, kote tout moun yo te konn reyini, yo pale ak moun peyi a. Yo di yo:
21 “These men are friendly toward us. We should let them live here and travel around (OR, buy and sell things) and if they find land that they want, they can buy it. There is plenty of land for them to live here. Our young men can marry their daughters, and their young men can marry our daughters.
-Mesye sa yo, se pa moun ki vin pou kont. Ann kite yo rete nan peyi a. Ann kite yo fè trafik yo. Peyi a gen kont plas pou yo. Ann marye ak pitit fi yo, ann kite yo marye ak pitit fi nou yo.
22 But these men will agree to live among us and become one people-group with us only if all our males are circumcised, as they are.
Mesye sa yo dakò pou yo rete ansanm ak nou, pou nou fè yon sèl pèp. Men yo pase yon kondisyon: se pou tout gason nan mitan nou sikonsi, menm jan yo menm yo sikonsi a.
23 But if we do that, just think! Their livestock and their possessions and their other animals will become ours [RHQ]! So we should agree to do what they suggest, and then they will live among us!”
Konsa, tout bèt yo, tout byen yo, tout zannimo yo ap vin pou nou yon lè. Se asepte pou n' asepte kondisyon an pou yo ka rete viv ansanm ak nou.
24 Shechem was the most respected person in his father’s household, so all the men who were there at the city gate agreed to what Hamor and Shechem suggested. So every male in the city was circumcised.
tout moun ki te reyini bò pòtay lavil la te tonbe dakò ak sa Amò ak Sichèm, pitit li a, te di yo. Se konsa yo sikonsi tout gason ki te la bò pòtay lavil la.
25 On the third day after that, when the men of the city were still sore because of being circumcised, two of Jacob’s sons, Simeon and Levi, who were Dinah’s brothers, took their swords and entered the city without anyone opposing them, and killed all the men.
Twa jou apre, mesye yo t'ap soufri ak sikonsizyon an toujou lè de nan pitit gason Jakòb yo, Simeyon ak Levi, frè menm manman ak Dena yo, pran nepe yo, yo antre nan lavil la san pesonn pa sispèk anyen, yo touye tout gason yo.
26 They even killed Hamor and his son Shechem. Then they took Dinah out of Shechem’s house and left the city.
Yo touye Amò ak Sichèm, pitit gason l' lan, yo pran Dena, yo fè l' kite kay Sichèm lan, y al fè wout yo avè l'.
27 Then the other sons of Jacob went into the city where all those dead bodies were. They (looted/took everything in) the city to get revenge for the shameful thing that had been done to their sister.
Lòt pitit Jakòb yo menm jete kò yo sou kadav yo, yo piye lavil la byen piye, paske moun lavil la te avili sè yo a.
28 They took away the people’s sheep and goats, their cattle, their donkeys, and everything else that they wanted from inside the city and from out in the countryside.
Apre sa, yo pran tout bèt, tout bèf, tout bourik ak tout sa ki te nan lavil la ak nan jaden yo.
29 They took away everything that was valuable, even the children and the women. They seized and took away everything that was in the houses.
Yo pran tout richès ak tout sa ki te nan kay mesye yo pote ale, yo fè tout pitit yo ak tout medam yo prizonye.
30 Then Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, “You have caused a lot of trouble for me! Now the Canaan people-group and the Perizzi people-group and everyone else who lives in this land will (hate me/say my name stinks)! I do not have many men to fight for us, so if they all gather together and come to me and attack us, they will destroy us and all our household!”
Apre sa, Jakòb rele Simeyon ak Levi, li di yo: -Gade nan ki traka nou mete m'. Koulye a, moun ki rete nan peyi a, moun Kanaran yo ak moun Perezi yo, pral rayi m'. Mwen pa gen anpil moun. Si yo mete ansanm sou do mwen pou atake m', y'ap touye m' ansanm ak tout moun lakay mwen.
31 But they replied, “(Should we have allowed Shechem to treat our sister like a prostitute?/We could not just let Shechem treat our sister like a prostitute!)” [RHQ]
Men Simeyon ak Levi reponn: -Atò, se pou nou te kite yo trete sè nou an tankou nenpòt jennès!
