Genesis 34
1 Dinah, the daughter of Leah, whom she bore to Jacob, went out to see the daughters of the land.
Tsopano Dina, mwana amene Leya anaberekera Yakobo, anapita kukacheza ndi akazi ena a mʼdzikolo.
2 Shechem the son of Hamor the Hivite, the prince of the land, saw her. He took her, lay with her, and humbled her.
Pamene Sekemu mwana wa Hamori Mhivi, mfumu ya deralo, anamuona, anamugwirira.
3 His soul joined to Dinah, the daughter of Jacob, and he loved the young lady, and spoke kindly to the young lady.
Koma Sekemu anamukondadi namwali uja, Dina, mwana wa Yakobo motero kuti anamuyankhula mawu womutonthoza.
4 Shechem spoke to his father, Hamor, saying, “Get me this young lady as a wife.”
Choncho Sekemu anati kwa abambo ake Hamori, “Mundipezere mtsikana uyu kuti akhale mkazi wanga.”
5 Now Jacob heard that he had defiled Dinah, his daughter; and his sons were with his livestock in the field. Jacob held his peace until they came.
Yakobo anamva kuti mwana wake Dina wagwiriridwa, koma sanachitepo kanthu msanga kudikira mpaka ana ake amuna omwe anali ku busa atabwerako.
6 Hamor the father of Shechem went out to Jacob to talk with him.
Kenaka Hamori, abambo a Sekemu, anapita kukakambirana ndi Yakobo.
7 The sons of Jacob came in from the field when they heard it. The men were grieved, and they were very angry, because he had done folly in Israel in lying with Jacob’s daughter, a thing that ought not to be done.
Pa nthawi iyi nʼkuti ana a Yakobo atabwererako ku busa kuja. Iwo atangomva zimene zinachitika, anawawidwa mtima. Iwo anapsa mtima kwambiri kuti Sekemu nʼkuchita chonyansa choterechi mu dziko la Israeli, kumugwirira Dina, mwana wa Yakobo.
8 Hamor talked with them, saying, “The soul of my son, Shechem, longs for your daughter. Please give her to him as a wife.
Koma Hamori anawawuza kuti, “Mwana wanga Sekemu wamukonda kwambiri mwana wanu. Chonde muloleni kuti akhale mkazi wake.
9 Make marriages with us. Give your daughters to us, and take our daughters for yourselves.
Tiyeni tichite mgwirizano wa ukwati kuti ife tidzikwatira ana anu ndi inu mudzikwatira ana athu.
10 You shall dwell with us, and the land will be before you. Live and trade in it, and get possessions in it.”
Khazikikani pakati pathu. Mukhoza kupeza malo wokhala kulikonse kumene mufuna. Mukhozanso kuchita malonda momasuka ndi kupeza chuma.”
11 Shechem said to her father and to her brothers, “Let me find favor in your eyes, and whatever you will tell me I will give.
Pamenepo Sekemu anati kwa abambo ndi alongo ake a Dina, “Inu mundikomere mtima, ndipo ndidzakupatsani chilichonse munganene.
12 Ask me a great amount for a dowry, and I will give whatever you ask of me, but give me the young lady as a wife.”
Tchulani mtengo wamalowolo umene ndiyenera kupereka, ndipo ndipereka. Ndidzakupatsani chilichonse chimene mukufuna malingana inu mukandipatsa namwaliyu kuti ndimukwatire.”
13 The sons of Jacob answered Shechem and Hamor his father with deceit when they spoke, because he had defiled Dinah their sister,
Ana a Yakobo anayankha Sekemu ndi abambo ake, Hamori mwachinyengo chifukwa mlongo wawo, Dina anali atayipitsidwa.
14 and said to them, “We can’t do this thing, to give our sister to one who is uncircumcised; for that is a reproach to us.
Iwo anati, “Sitingachite zimenezo, kupereka mlongo wathu kwa munthu wosachita mdulidwe. Chimenecho ndi chinthu cha manyazi kwa ife.
15 Only on this condition will we consent to you. If you will be as we are, that every male of you be circumcised,
Tikuvomerani pokhapokha mutakhala ngati ife, mutachita mdulidwe ana anu onse aamuna.
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.
Kenaka tidzakulolani kuti mukwatire ana athu, ifenso tizikwatira ana anu. Choncho tidzakhala pakati panu ndipo tidzakhala anthu amodzi.
17 But if you will not listen to us and be circumcised, then we will take our sister, and we will be gone.”
Koma ngati simuvomereza kuchita mdulidwe titenga mlongo wathu ndi kupita.”
18 Their words pleased Hamor and Shechem, Hamor’s son.
Mawu amenewa anakondweretsa Hamori ndi mwana wake Sekemu.
19 The young man didn’t wait to do this thing, because he had delight in Jacob’s daughter, and he was honored above all the house of his father.
Mnyamata uja amene anali wolemekezeka kwambiri pa banja lake lonse, sanachedwe kuchita mdulidwe popeza anamukonda kwambiri mwana wa Yakobo.
20 Hamor and Shechem, his son, came to the gate of their city, and talked with the men of their city, saying,
Choncho Hamori ndi mwana wake Sekemu anapita ku chipata cha mzinda wawo kukayankhula ndi anthu a mu mzindawo.
21 “These men are peaceful with us. Therefore let them live in the land and trade in it. For behold, the land is large enough for them. Let’s take their daughters to us for wives, and let’s give them our daughters.
Iwo anati, “Anthu awa ndi a mtendere. Aloleni kuti akhale mʼdziko mwathu muno nachitamo malonda. Dzikoli lili ndi malo ambiri woti iwo nʼkukhalamo. Tingathe kukwatira ana awo aakazi ndipo angathe kukwatira ana athu aakazi.
22 Only on this condition will the men consent to us to live with us, to become one people, if every male among us is circumcised, as they are circumcised.
Komatu anthuwa adzavomereza kukhala amodzi a ife pokhapokha ngati amuna onse pakati pathu atachita mdulidwe monga alili iwo.
23 Won’t their livestock and their possessions and all their animals be ours? Only let’s give our consent to them, and they will dwell with us.”
Tikatero, ndiye kuti ziweto zawo zonsezi, katundu wawo yenseyu ndi ziweto zawo zina zonsezi zidzakhala zathu. Choncho tiyeni tiwavomereze ndipo adzakhazikika pakati pathu.”
24 All who went out of the gate of his city listened to Hamor, and to Shechem his son; and every male was circumcised, all who went out of the gate of his city.
Amuna onse amene anatuluka ku chipata cha mzinda anavomerezana ndi Hamori ndi mwana wake Sekemu, ndipo aliyense wamwamuna mu mzindamo anachita mdulidwe.
25 On the third day, when they were sore, two of Jacob’s sons, Simeon and Levi, Dinah’s brothers, each took his sword, came upon the unsuspecting city, and killed all the males.
Patapita masiku atatu, amuna onse akumvabe ululu wa kuchita mdulidwe uja, ana awiri a Yakobo, Simeoni ndi Levi, alongo ake a Dina, anatenga malupanga ndi kulowa mu mzindawo mwakachetechete napha amuna onse.
26 They killed Hamor and Shechem, his son, with the edge of the sword, and took Dinah out of Shechem’s house, and went away.
Anapha Hamori ndi Sekemu. Anakatenga Dina ku nyumba kwa Sekemu nanyamuka.
27 Jacob’s sons came on the dead, and plundered the city, because they had defiled their sister.
Ana a Yakobo anafika kwa anthu ophedwawo ndi kututa katundu mu mzindawo chifukwa anagwiririra mlongo wawo.
28 They took their flocks, their herds, their donkeys, that which was in the city, that which was in the field,
Analanda nkhosa zawo, ngʼombe zawo, abulu awo ndi china chilichonse chawo mu mzindamo pamodzi ndi za ku minda.
29 and all their wealth. They took captive all their little ones and their wives, and took as plunder everything that was in the house.
Anawatengera chuma chawo chonse, akazi ndi ana awo, pamodzi ndi zonse zimene zinapezeka mʼnyumba zawo. Zonsezi zinayesedwa ngati zolandidwa ku nkhondo.
30 Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, “You have troubled me, to make me odious to the inhabitants of the land, among the Canaanites and the Perizzites. I am few in number. They will gather themselves together against me and strike me, and I will be destroyed, I and my house.”
Pamenepo Yakobo anati kwa Simeoni ndi Levi, “Mwandiputira mavuto, ndi kundiyipitsira dzina pakati pa anthu a mʼdziko lino, Akanaani ndi Aperezi. Ife ndife owerengeka, ndipo atati aphatikizane kudzandithira nkhondo, ndiye kuti ine ndi banja langa tidzawonongeka.”
31 They said, “Should he deal with our sister as with a prostitute?”
Koma iwo anayankha kuti, “Pepani, nanga achite kumusandutsa mlongo wathu ngati mkazi wachiwerewere?”
