Genesis 34
1 One day Dinah, the daughter of Jacob and Leah, went to visit some of the women in that area.
Entonces Dina, la hija que Lea dio a luz a Jacob, salió a ver a las hijas de aquella tierra.
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.
Siquem, hijo de Hamor, el heveo príncipe de aquella tierra, la miró y la tomó. Se unió a ella y la deshonró.
3 He [SYN] was very much attracted to her, and fell in love with her, and he tried to get her to love him.
Pero su alma se apegó a Dina, hija de Jacob. Se enamoró de la muchacha y habló amorosamente a la joven.
4 So Shechem said to his father Hamor, “Please get this girl for me. I want her to become my wife!”
Siquem habló a su padre Hamor: Tómame a esta jovencita para que sea mi esposa.
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.
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 In the meantime, Shechem’s father Hamor went to talk with Jacob.
Entonces Hamor, padre de Siquem, salió para hablar con Jacob.
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!”
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 But Hamor said to them, “My son Shechem really likes this girl. Please allow him to marry her.
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 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.
Emparenten con nosotros. Dennos sus hijas y tomen nuestras hijas para ustedes.
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.”
Vivan con nosotros. La tierra está delante de ustedes. Vivan y negocien y adquieran posesión en ella.
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.
Y Siquem dijo al padre de ella y a sus hermanos: Halle yo gracia ante ustedes, y daré lo que me digan.
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.”
Aumenten mucha dote y regalos a mi cargo, que yo daré cuanto me digan, pero denme la muchacha para que sea mi esposa.
13 But because Shechem had done a shameful thing to their sister Dinah, the sons of Jacob deceived Shechem and his father Hamor
Los hijos de Jacob respondieron con doblez a Siquem y a Hamor su padre, porque Siquem violó a su hermana Dina.
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.
Les dijeron: No podemos hacer esto de dar nuestra hermana a un hombre que tenga prepucio, porque es afrenta para nosotros.
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.
Solo con esto los consentiremos: que sean como nosotros, al circuncidar todo varón de ustedes.
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.
Entonces les daremos nuestras hijas y tomaremos las de ustedes. Viviremos con ustedes y seremos un pueblo.
17 But if you will not agree to being circumcised, we will take our sister and go back to our land.”
Pero si no aceptan circuncidarse, entonces tomaremos nuestra hija y nos iremos.
18 What they said pleased Hamor and his son Shechem.
Las palabras de ellos parecieron buenas a Hamor y a Siquem, hijo de Hamor.
19 Shechem was very much in love with Jacob’s daughter, so he quickly agreed to do what they suggested.
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 Shechem went with Hamor to the meeting place near the city gate, and they spoke to the city leaders, 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 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.
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 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.
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 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!”
¿Entonces no serán nuestros su ganado, sus bienes y todos sus animales? Solo convengamos con ellos, y vivirán con nosotros.
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.
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 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.
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 They even killed Hamor and his son Shechem. Then they took Dinah out of Shechem’s house and left the city.
Asesinaron a filo de espada a Hamor y a su hijo Siquem, sacaron a Dina de la casa de Siquem y salieron.
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.
Los hijos de Jacob pasaron sobre los muertos y saquearon la ciudad, por cuanto violaron a su hermana.
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.
Tomaron sus ovejas, su ganado vacuno y sus asnos, lo que estaba en la ciudad, lo que estaba en el campo
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.
y toda su hacienda. Se llevaron cautivas a todas sus criaturas y sus mujeres, y saquearon todo lo que había en las casas.
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!”
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 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]
Pero dijeron ellos: ¿Debía él tratar a nuestra hermana como a una prostituta?
