Genesis 34
1 And Dinah the daughter of Leah, which she bore to Jacob, went out to see the daughters of the land.
Basi Dina, binti wa Yakobo aliyezaliwa na Lea, akatoka nje kuwatembelea wanawake wa nchi ile.
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.
Ikawa Shekemu mwana wa Hamori Mhivi, mtawala wa eneo lile alipomwona, akamchukua na kumnajisi.
3 And his soul cleaved to Dinah the daughter of Jacob, and he loved the damsel, and spoke kindly to the damsel.
Moyo wake ukavutwa sana kwa Dina binti Yakobo, akampenda huyu msichana na akazungumza naye kwa kumbembeleza.
4 And Shechem spoke to his father Hamor, saying, Get me this damsel for a wife.
Shekemu akamwambia baba yake Hamori, “Nipatie msichana huyu awe mke wangu.”
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.
Yakobo aliposikia kwamba binti yake Dina amenajisiwa, wanawe walikuwa mashambani wakichunga mifugo yake, kwa hiyo akalinyamazia jambo hilo mpaka waliporudi nyumbani.
6 And Hamor the father of Shechem went out to Jacob to commune with him.
Kisha Hamori baba yake Shekemu akaenda kuzungumza na Yakobo.
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.
Basi wana wa Yakobo walikuwa wamerudi kutoka mashambani mara tu waliposikia kilichotokea. Walikuwa wamejawa na huzuni na ghadhabu, kwa sababu Shekemu alikuwa amefanya jambo la aibu katika Israeli kwa kukutana kimwili na binti wa Yakobo, kitu ambacho hakingepasa kufanyika.
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.
Lakini Hamori akawaambia, “Moyo wa mwanangu Shekemu umeelekea kwa binti yenu. Tafadhali mpeni awe mke wake.
9 And make ye marriages with us: give your daughters to us, and take our daughters to you.
Oaneni na sisi, tupeni binti zenu, nanyi mchukue binti zetu.
10 And ye shall dwell with us: and the land shall be before you; dwell and trade ye therein, and get you possessions therein.
Mwaweza kuishi katikati yetu, nchi ni wazi kwenu. Ishini ndani yake, fanyeni biashara humu na mjipatie mali.”
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.
Kisha Shekemu akamwambia baba yake Dina pamoja na ndugu zake, “Na nipate kibali machoni penu, nami nitawapa chochote mtakachosema.
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.
Niambieni kiasi cha mahari na zawadi nitakayoileta, hata iwe kubwa kiasi gani, nami nitawalipa chochote mtakachodai. Nipeni tu huyu msichana awe mke wangu.”
13 And the sons of Jacob answered Shechem and Hamor his father deceitfully, and said, (because he had defiled Dinah their sister, )
Kwa sababu ndugu yao Dina alikuwa amenajisiwa, wana wa Yakobo wakajibu kwa udanganyifu walipozungumza na Shekemu pamoja na baba yake Hamori.
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:
Wakawaambia, “Hatuwezi kufanya jambo kama hili, hatuwezi kumtoa dada yetu kwa mtu ambaye hakutahiriwa. Hiyo itakuwa aibu kwetu.
15 But in this will we consent to you: If ye will be as we [are], that every male of you shall be circumcised;
Tutakuruhusu kwa sharti moja tu, kwamba mtakuwa kama sisi kwa kuwatahiri wanaume wenu wote.
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.
Kisha tutawapa binti zetu na sisi tutawachukua binti zenu. Tutaishi kwenu na tutakuwa watu wamoja nanyi.
17 But if ye will not hearken to us, to be circumcised; then will we take our daughter, and we will be gone.
Lakini mkikataa kutahiriwa, tutamchukua ndugu yetu na kuondoka.”
18 And their words pleased Hamor, and Shechem Hamor's son.
Pendekezo lao likawa jema kwa Hamori na Shekemu mwanawe.
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.
Kijana mdogo, ambaye alikuwa ameheshimiwa kati ya wote walioishi nyumbani mwa baba yake, hakupoteza muda kufanya waliyoyasema, kwa sababu alikuwa amependezwa sana na binti Yakobo.
20 And Hamor and Shechem his son came to the gate of their city, and communed with the men of their city, saying,
Kwa hiyo Hamori na Shekemu mwanawe walikwenda kwenye lango la mji kuzungumza na wenzao wa mjini.
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.
Wakasema, “Hawa watu ni marafiki kwetu, tuwaruhusu waishi katika nchi yetu na kufanya biashara ndani yake, nchi ina nafasi tele kwa ajili yao. Tunaweza kuoa binti zao. Nao wanaweza kuoa binti zetu.
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.
Lakini watu hao watakuwa tayari kukubali kuishi nasi kama watu wamoja nao kwa sharti kwamba wanaume wetu watahiriwe, kama wao.
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.
Je, si mifugo yao, mali zao na wanyama wao wengine wote watakuwa wetu? Basi na tuwape kibali, nao wataishi miongoni mwetu.”
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.
Wanaume wote waliotoka nje ya lango la mji walikubaliana na Hamori na Shekemu mwanawe na kila mwanaume katika mji ule akatahiriwa.
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.
Baada ya siku tatu, wakati wote wakiwa wangali katika maumivu, wana wawili wa Yakobo, yaani Simeoni na Lawi, ndugu zake Dina, wakachukua panga zao na kuvamia mji ambao haukutazamia vita, wakaua kila mwanaume.
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.
Wakawaua Hamori na Shekemu mwanawe kwa upanga kisha wakamchukua Dina kutoka nyumba ya Shekemu na kuondoka.
27 The sons of Jacob came upon the slain, and spoiled the city; because they had defiled their sister.
Wana wa Yakobo walipita juu ya maiti katika kuteka nyara mji ule ambamo dada yao alikuwa amenajisiwa.
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.
Wakachukua kondoo na mbuzi, ngʼombe, punda na kila kitu kilichokuwa chao ndani ya mji ule na mashambani.
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.
Walichukua utajiri wao wote pamoja na wanawake na watoto wao, wakachukua nyara kila kitu ndani ya nyumba zao.
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.
Kisha Yakobo akawaambia Simeoni na Lawi, “Mmeleta taabu kwangu kwa kunifanya ninuke kama uvundo kwa Wakanaani na Waperizi, watu waishio katika nchi hii. Sisi ni wachache, kama wakiunganisha nguvu zao dhidi yangu na kunishambulia, mimi na nyumba yangu tutaangamizwa.”
31 And they said, Should he deal with our sister, as with a harlot?
Lakini wakamjibu, “Je, ilikuwa vyema kumtendea dada yetu kama kahaba?”
