Genesis 34
1 And Dinah the daughter of Leah, which she bore to Jacob, went out to see the daughters of the land.
Da Dina, den Datter, Jakob havde med Lea, engang gik ud for at besøge Landets Døtre,
2 And when Shechem, the son of Hamor the Hivite, prince of the country, saw her, he took her, and lay with her, and defiled her.
så Sikem, en Søn af Egnens Høvding, Hivviten Hamor, hende og greb hende og lå hos hende; og han krænkede hende;
3 And his soul cleaved to Dinah the daughter of Jacob, and he loved the damsel, and spoke kindly to the damsel.
men hans Hjerte hang ved Jakobs Datter Dina, og han elskede Pigen og talte godt for hende;
4 And Shechem spoke to his father Hamor, saying, Get me this damsel for a wife.
og Sikem sagde til sin Fader Hamor: "Skaf mig den Pige til Hustru!"
5 And Jacob heard that he had defiled Dinah his daughter (now his sons were with his cattle in the field: ) and Jacob held his peace till they had come.
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 And Hamor the father of Shechem went out to Jacob to commune with him.
Sikems Fader Hamor gik nu til Jakob for at tale med ham.
7 And the sons of Jacob came from the field when they heard [it]: and the men were grieved, and they were very wroth, because he had wrought folly in Israel, in lying with Jacob's daughter; which thing ought not to be 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 And Hamor communed with them, saying, The soul of my son Shechem longeth for your daughter: I pray you give her to him for a wife.
Og Hamor talte med dem og sagde: "Min Søn Sikems Hjerte hænger ved eders Datter; giv ham hende til Hustru
9 And make ye marriages with us: give your daughters to us, and take our daughters to you.
og indgå Svogerskab med os; giv os eders Døtre og gift eder med vore Døtre;
10 And ye shall dwell with us: and the land shall be before you; dwell and trade ye therein, and get you possessions therein.
tag Ophold hos os, og Landet skal stå eder åbent; slå eder ned og drag frit omkring og saml eder Ejendom der!"
11 And Shechem said to her father, and to her brethren, Let me find favor in your eyes, and what ye shall say to 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 never so much dower and gift, and I will give according as ye shall say to me: but give me the damsel for 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 And the sons of Jacob answered Shechem and Hamor his father deceitfully, and said, (because he 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 And they said to them, We cannot do this thing, to give our sister to one that is uncircumcised: for that [would be] a reproach 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 But in this will we consent to you: If ye will be as we [are], that every male of you shall be 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 us, and we will dwell with you, and we will 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 ye will not hearken to us, to be circumcised; then will we take our daughter, and we will be gone.
men hvis I ikke vil høre os og lade eder omskære, så tager vi vor Datter og drager bort"
18 And their words pleased Hamor, and Shechem Hamor's son.
Deres Tale tyktes Hamor og Sikem, Hamors Søn, god;
19 And the young man deferred not to do the thing, because he had delight in Jacob's daughter: and he [was] more honorable than all the house of his father.
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 And Hamor and Shechem his son came to the gate of their city, and communed 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] peaceable with us, therefore let them dwell in the land, and trade therein: for the land, behold, [it is] large enough for them: let us take their daughters to us for 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 herein, will the men consent to us to dwell with us, to be one people, if every male among us shall be 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 cattle, and their substance, and every beast of theirs [be] ours? only let us consent to them, and they will dwell with 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 And to Hamor and to Shechem his son hearkened all that went out of the gate of his city: and every male was circumcised, all that went out of the gate of his city.
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 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 brethren, took each man his sword, and came upon the city boldly, and slew 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 And they slew Hamor and Shechem his son with the edge of the sword, and took Dinah out of Shechem's house, and went out.
og dræbte Hamor og hans Søn Sikem med Sværdet, tog Dina ud af Sikems Hus og drog bort.
27 The sons of Jacob came upon the slain, and spoiled the city; because they 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 sheep, and their oxen, and their asses, and that which [was] in the city, and that which [was] in the field.
deres Småkvæg, Hornkvæg og Æsler, både hvad der var i Byen og på Markerne, tog de med sig,
29 And all their wealth, and all their little ones, and their wives they took captive, and spoiled even all that [was] in the house.
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 And Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, Ye have troubled me to make me odious among the inhabitants of the land, among the Canaanites, and the Perizzites: and I [being] few in number, they will assemble themselves against me, and slay me, and I shall be destroyed, I and my house.
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 And they said, Should he deal with our sister, as with a harlot?
Men de svarede: "Skal han behandle vor Søster som en Skøge!"
