Genesis 34
1 Now Dinah, Leah's daughter whom she bore to Jacob, went out to meet the young women of the land.
Da Dina, den Datter, Jakob havde med Lea, engang gik ud for at besøge Landets Døtre,
2 Shechem son of Hamor the Hivite, the prince of the land, saw her and he grabbed her, assaulted her, and slept with her.
så Sikem, en Søn af Egnens Høvding, Hivviten Hamor, hende og greb hende og lå hos hende; og han krænkede hende;
3 He was drawn to Dinah, the daughter of Jacob. He loved the young woman and spoke tenderly to her.
men hans Hjerte hang ved Jakobs Datter Dina, og han elskede Pigen og talte godt for hende;
4 Shechem spoke to his father Hamor, saying, “Get this young woman for me as a wife.”
og Sikem sagde til sin Fader Hamor: "Skaf mig den Pige til Hustru!"
5 Now Jacob heard that he had defiled Dinah his daughter. His sons were with his livestock in the field, so Jacob held his peace until they came.
Jakob hørte, at han havde skændet hans Datter Dina; men da hans Sønner dengang var med hans Kvæg på Marken, tav han, til de kom hjem.
6 Hamor the father of Shechem went out to Jacob to speak with him.
Sikems Fader Hamor gik nu til Jakob for at tale med ham.
7 The sons of Jacob came in from the field when they heard of the matter. The men were offended. They were very angry because he had disgraced Israel by forcing himself on Jacob's daughter, for such a thing should not have been done.
Men da Jakobs Sønner hørte det, kom de hjem fra Marken; og Mændene græmmede sig og var såre opbragte, fordi han havde øvet Skændselsdåd i Israel ved at ligge hos Jakobs Datter; thi sligt bør ikke ske.
8 Hamor spoke with them, saying, “My son Shechem loves your daughter. Please give her to him as a wife.
Og Hamor talte med dem og sagde: "Min Søn Sikems Hjerte hænger ved eders Datter; giv ham hende til Hustru
9 Intermarry with us, give your daughters to us, and take our daughters for yourselves.
og indgå Svogerskab med os; giv os eders Døtre og gift eder med vore Døtre;
10 You will live with us, and the land will be open to you to live and trade in, and to acquire property.”
tag Ophold hos os, og Landet skal stå eder åbent; slå eder ned og drag frit omkring og saml eder Ejendom der!"
11 Shechem said to her father and to her brothers, “Let me find favor in your eyes, and whatever you tell me I will give.
Og Sikem sagde til hendes Fader og Brødre: "Måtte jeg finde Nåde for eders Øjne! Alt, hvad I kræver, vil jeg give
12 Ask me for as great a bride price and gift as you will, and I will give whatever you say to me, but give me the young woman as a wife.”
forlang så høj en Brudesum og Gave, I vil; jeg giver, hvad I kræver, når I blot vil give mig Pigen til Hustru!"
13 The sons of Jacob answered Shechem and Hamor his father with deceit, because Shechem had defiled Dinah their sister.
Da gav Jakobs Sønner Sikem og hans Fader Hamor et listigt Svar, fordi. han havde skændet deres Søster Dina,
14 They said to them, “We cannot do this thing, to give our sister to anyone who is uncircumcised; for that would be a disgrace to us.
og sagde til dem: "Vi er ikke i Stand til at give vor Søster til en uomskåren Mand, thi det holder vi for en Skændsel.
15 Only on this condition will we agree with you: If you will become circumcised as we are, if every male among you is circumcised.
Kun på det Vilkår vil vi føje eder, at I bliver som vi og lader alle af Mandkøn iblandt eder omskære;
16 Then will we give our daughters to you, and we will take your daughters to ourselves, and we will live with you and become one people.
i så Fald vil vi give eder vore Døtre og ægte eders Døtre og bosætte os iblandt eder, så vi bliver eet Folk;
17 But if you do not listen to us and become circumcised, then we will take our sister and we will leave.”
men hvis I ikke vil høre os og lade eder omskære, så tager vi vor Datter og drager bort"
18 Their words pleased Hamor and his son Shechem.
Deres Tale tyktes Hamor og Sikem, Hamors Søn, god;
19 The young man did not delay to do what they said, because he delighted in Jacob's daughter, and because he was the most honored person in all his father's household.
og den unge Mand tøvede ikke med at gøre således, thi han var indtaget i Jakobs Datter, og han var den, der havde mest at sige i sin Faders Hus
20 Hamor and Shechem his son went to the gate of their city and spoke with the men of their city, saying,
og Harnor og hans Søn Siken gik til deres Bys Port og sagde til, Mændene i deres By:
21 “These men are at peace with us, so let them live in the land and trade in it for, really, the land is large enough for them. Let us take their daughters as wives, and let us give them our daughters.
"Disse Mænd er os velsindede; lad dem bosætte sig og drage frit om her i Landet, der er jo Plads nok til dem i Landet; deres Døtre vil vi tage til Hustruer og give dem vore Døtre til Hustruer!
22 Only on this condition will the men agree to live with us and become one people: If every male among us is circumcised, as they are circumcised.
Men kun på det Vilkår vil Mændene føje os og bosætte sig hos os, så vi kan blive eet Folk, at alle af Mandkøn hos os lader sig omskære, således som de er omskårne.
23 Will not their livestock and their property—all their animals be ours? So let us agree with them, and they will live among us.”
Deres Hjorde og deres Gods og alt deres Kvæg bliver jo dog vort; lad os derfor føje dem, så de kan blive boende hos os!"
24 All the men of the city listened to Hamor and Shechem, his son. Every male was circumcised.
Så adlød de Hamor og hans Søn Sikem, så mange som færdedes i hans Bys Port, og alle af Mandkøn, alle, som færdedes i hans Bys Port, lod sig omskære.
25 On the third day, when they were still in pain, two of the sons of Jacob (Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brothers), each took his sword and they attacked the city that was certain of its security, and they killed all the males.
Men Tredjedagen, da de havde Sårfeber, tog Jakobs to Sønner Simeon og Levi, Dinas Brødre, hver sit Sværd, trængte ind i Byen, uden at nogen anede Uråd, og slog alle Mændene ihjel
26 They killed Hamor and his son Shechem with the edge of the sword. They took Dinah from Shechem's house and went away.
og dræbte Hamor og hans Søn Sikem med Sværdet, tog Dina ud af Sikems Hus og drog bort.
27 The other sons of Jacob came to the dead bodies and looted the city, because the people had defiled their sister.
Så kastede Jakobs Sønner sig over de faldne og plyndrede Byen, fordi de havde skændet deres Søster;
28 They took their flocks, their herds, their donkeys, and everything in the city and in the surrounding fields with
deres Småkvæg, Hornkvæg og Æsler, både hvad der var i Byen og på Markerne, tog de med sig,
29 all their wealth. All their children and their wives, they captured. They even took everything that was in the houses.
og al deres Ejendom og alle deres Børn og Kvinder førte de bort som Bytte, og de udplyndrede Byen for alt, hvad der var der.
30 Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, “You have brought trouble on me, to make me stink to the inhabitants of the land, the Canaanites and the Perizzites. I am few in number. If they gather themselves together against me and attack me, then I will be destroyed, I and my household.”
Men Jakob sagde til Simeon og Levi: "I styrter mig i Ulykke ved at lægge mig for Had hos Landets Indbyggere, Kana'anæerne og Perizziterne; thi jeg råder kun over få Folk; samler de sig mod mig og slår mig, så er det ude med mig og mit Hus!"
31 But Simeon and Levi said, “Should Shechem have dealt with our sister as with a prostitute?”
Men de svarede: "Skal han behandle vor Søster som en Skøge!"
