< Genesis 34 >

1 And Dinah the daughter of Leah, which she bore to Jacob, went out to see the daughters of the land.
Dina, Lejina hči, ki jo je rodila Jakobu, pa je odšla, da pogleda hčere dežele.
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.
Ko jo je zagledal Sihem, sin Hivéjca Hamórja, princ dežele, jo je vzel in legel z njo ter jo omadeževal.
3 And his soul cleaved to Dinah the daughter of Jacob, and he loved the damsel, and spoke kindly to the damsel.
Njegova duša se je pridružila k Jakobovi hčeri Dini in ljubil je gospodično in gospodični prijazno govoril.
4 And Shechem spoke to his father Hamor, saying, Get me this damsel for a wife.
Sihem je spregovoril svojemu očetu Hamórju, rekoč: »Pridobi mi to gospodično za ženo.«
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 je slišal, da je omadeževal njegovo hčer Dino. Torej njegovi sinovi so bili z živino na polju in Jakob je ohranil svoj mir, dokler niso prišli.
6 And Hamor the father of Shechem went out to Jacob to commune with him.
Sihemov oče Hamór je odšel k Jakobu, da se z njim posvetuje.
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.
Ko so to slišali Jakobovi sinovi, so prišli s polja. Možje so bili užaloščeni in zelo ogorčeni, ker je storil neumnost v Izraelu, ležeč z Jakobovo hčerjo, katera stvar se sploh ne bi smela zgoditi.
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.
Hamór se je z njimi posvetoval, rekoč: »Duša mojega sina Sihema hrepeni za vašo hčerjo. Prosim vas, dajte mu jo za ženo.
9 And make ye marriages with us: give your daughters to us, and take our daughters to you.
Poročajte se z nami in svoje hčere dajajte nam in jemljite naše hčere k vam.
10 And ye shall dwell with us: and the land shall be before you; dwell and trade ye therein, and get you possessions therein.
Prebivali boste z nami in dežela bo pred vami. Prebivajte in trgujte v njej in si pridobite posesti v njej.«
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.
Sihem je rekel njenemu očetu in njenim bratom: »Naj najdem milost v vaših očeh in kar mi boste rekli, bom dal.
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.
Prosite me kolikorkoli veliko doto in darilo in bom dal, če mi boste rekli, toda dajte mi gospodično za ženo.«
13 And the sons of Jacob answered Shechem and Hamor his father deceitfully, and said, (because he had defiled Dinah their sister, )
Jakobovi sinovi pa so Sihemu in njegovemu očetu Hamórju varljivo odgovorili ter rekli, ker je omadeževal njihovo sestro Dino.
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:
Rekli so jima: »Ne moremo storiti te stvari, da damo svojo sestro nekomu, ki je neobrezan, kajti to bi nam bil očitek.
15 But in this will we consent to you: If ye will be as we [are], that every male of you shall be circumcised;
Toda v tem se bomo strinjali z vami, če boste, kakor smo mi, da bo vsak moški izmed vas obrezan,
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.
potem vam bomo dajali svoje hčere in vaše hčere jemali k nam in prebivali bomo z vami in postali bomo eno ljudstvo.
17 But if ye will not hearken to us, to be circumcised; then will we take our daughter, and we will be gone.
Toda če nam ne boste prisluhnili, da bi bili obrezani, potem bomo vzeli svojo hčer in odšli.«
18 And their words pleased Hamor, and Shechem Hamor's son.
Njihove besede so ugajale Hamórju in Hamórjevemu sinu Sihemu.
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.
Mladenič ni odlašal storiti stvari, ker je imel veselje v Jakobovi hčeri. Bil pa je bolj častitljiv kakor vsa hiša njegovega očeta.
20 And Hamor and Shechem his son came to the gate of their city, and communed with the men of their city, saying,
Hamór in njegov sin Sihem sta prišla k velikim vratom njihovega mesta in se posvetovala z možmi njihovega mesta, rekoč:
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.
»Ti ljudje so z nami miroljubni, zato naj prebivajo v deželi in v njej trgujejo, kajti dežela, glejte, ta je dovolj velika zanje. Jemljimo si njihove hčere za žene in dajajmo jim svoje hčere.
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.
Samo v tem se bodo možje strinjali z nami, da prebivajo z nami, da bi bili eno ljudstvo, če bo vsak moški izmed nas obrezan, kakor so obrezani oni.
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.
Ali ne bo njihova živina in njihovo imetje in vsaka njihova žival naša? Naj se samo strinjamo z njimi in bodo prebivali z nami.«
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.
Hamórju in njegovemu sinu Sihemu so prisluhnili vsi, ki so odšli od velikih vrat tega mesta, in vsak moški je bil obrezan, vsi, ki so šli od velikih vrat njegovega mesta.
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.
Pripetilo pa se je na tretji dan, ko so bili občutljivi, da sta dva izmed Jakobovih sinov, Simeon in Lévi, Dinina brata, vzela vsak svoj meč in predrzno prišla nad mesto in usmrtila vse njihove moške.
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.
Usmrtila sta Hamórja in njegovega sina Sihema z ostrino meča, Dino pa vzela iz Sihemove hiše ter odšla.
27 The sons of Jacob came upon the slain, and spoiled the city; because they had defiled their sister.
Jakobovi sinovi so prišli na umorjene in oplenili mesto, ker so omadeževali njihovo sestro.
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.
Vzeli so njihove ovce, njihove vole, njihove osle in to, kar je bilo v mestu in to, kar je bilo na polju.
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.
Vse njihovo premoženje, vse njihove malčke in vse njihove žene so ujeli in oplenili celo vse, kar je bilo v hiši.
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.
Jakob je rekel Simeonu in Léviju: »Privedla sta me v neprijeten položaj, da zaudarjam med prebivalci dežele, med Kánaanci in Perizéjci. Jaz sem maloštevilen, oni pa se bodo zbrali zoper mene in me ubili, in jaz bom uničen, jaz in moja hiša.«
31 And they said, Should he deal with our sister, as with a harlot?
Rekli so: »Naj bi z našo sestro postopal kakor s pocestnico?«
