Genesis 34
1 Forsothe Dyna, the douytir of Lya, yede out to se the wymmen of that cuntrey.
利亚给雅各所生的女儿底拿出去，要见那地的女子们。
2 And whanne Sichem, the sone of Emor Euey, the prince of that lond, hadde seyn hir, he louede hir, and rauyschide, and sclepte with hir, and oppresside the virgyn bi violence.
那地的主—希未人、哈抹的儿子示剑看见她，就拉住她，与她行淫，玷辱她。
3 And his soule was boundun faste with hir, and he pleside hir sory with flateringis.
示剑的心系恋雅各的女儿底拿，喜爱这女子，甜言蜜语地安慰她。
4 And he yede to Emor,
示剑对他父亲哈抹说：“求你为我聘这女子为妻。”
5 his fadir, and seide, Take to me this damysel a wijf. And whanne Jacob hadde herd this thing, while the sones weren absent, and ocupied in the fedyng of scheep, he was stille, til thei camen ayen.
雅各听见示剑玷污了他的女儿底拿。那时他的儿子们正和群畜在田野，雅各就闭口不言，等他们回来。
6 Sotheli whanne Emor, the fadir of Sichem, was gon out, `that he schulde speke to Jacob, lo!
示剑的父亲哈抹出来见雅各，要和他商议。
7 hise sones camen fro the feeld. And whanne this thing that bifelde was herd, thei weren wroothe greetli; for he wrouyte a foul thing in Israel, and he hadde do a thing vnleueful in the defoulyng of the douyter of Jacob.
雅各的儿子们听见这事，就从田野回来，人人忿恨，十分恼怒；因示剑在以色列家做了丑事，与雅各的女儿行淫，这本是不该做的事。
8 And so Emor spak to hem, The soule of my sone Sichem cleuyde to youre douytir, yeue ye hir a wijf to hym,
哈抹和他们商议说：“我儿子示剑的心恋慕这女子，求你们将她给我的儿子为妻。
9 and ioyne we weddyngis to gidere; yyue ye youre douytris to vs,
你们与我们彼此结亲；你们可以把女儿给我们，也可以娶我们的女儿。
10 and take ye oure douytris, and dwelle ye with vs; the lond is in youre power, tile ye, make ye marchaundise, and welde ye it.
你们与我们同住吧！这地都在你们面前，只管在此居住，做买卖，置产业。”
11 But also Sichem seide to the fadir and britheren of hir, Fynde Y grace bifor you, and what euer thingis ye ordeynen Y schal yyue;
示剑对女儿的父亲和弟兄们说：“但愿我在你们眼前蒙恩，你们向我要什么，我必给你们。
12 encreesse ye the dower, and axe ye yiftis, Y schal yyue wilfull that that ye axen; oonli yyue ye this damysele a wijf to me.
任凭向我要多重的聘金和礼物，我必照你们所说的给你们；只要把女子给我为妻。”
13 The sones of Jacob answeriden in gile to Sichem and his fadir, and weren feerse for the defoulyng of maidenhod of the sistir,
雅各的儿子们因为示剑玷污了他们的妹子底拿，就用诡诈的话回答示剑和他父亲哈抹，
14 We moun not do this that ye axen, nether we moun yyue oure sistir to a man vncircumcidid, which thing is vnleueful and abhomynable anentis vs.
对他们说：“我们不能把我们的妹子给没有受割礼的人为妻，因为那是我们的羞辱。
15 But in this we schulen mowe be boundun in pees, if ye wole be lijk vs, and ech of male kynde be circumcidid in you,
惟有一件才可以应允：若你们所有的男丁都受割礼，和我们一样，
16 thanne we schulen yyue and take togidre oure douytris and youre; and we schulen dwelle with you, and we schulen be o puple.
我们就把女儿给你们，也娶你们的女儿；我们便与你们同住，两下成为一样的人民。
17 Forsothe if ye nylen be circumcidid, we schulen take oure douytir, and schulen go a wei.
倘若你们不听从我们受割礼，我们就带着妹子走了。”
18 The profryng of hem pleside Emor and Sichem,
哈抹和他的儿子示剑喜欢这话。
19 his sone, and the yong wexynge man dilaiede not, that ne he fillide anoon that that was axid, for he louede the damysele greetli, and he was noble in al `the hous of his fadir.
那少年人做这事并不迟延，因为他喜爱雅各的女儿；他在他父亲家中也是人最尊重的。
20 And thei entriden in to the yate of the citee, and spaken to the puple,
哈抹和他儿子示剑到本城的门口，对本城的人说：
21 These men ben pesible, and wolen dwelle with vs; make thei marchaundie in the loond, and tile thei it, which is large and brood, and hath nede to tileris; we schulen take her douytris to wyues, and we schulen yyue oure douytris to hem.
“这些人与我们和睦，不如许他们在这地居住，做买卖；这地也宽阔，足可容下他们。我们可以娶他们的女儿为妻，也可以把我们的女儿嫁给他们。
22 O thing is, for which so greet good is dilaied; if we circumciden oure malis, and suen the custom of the folc,
惟有一件事我们必须做，他们才肯应允和我们同住，成为一样的人民：就是我们中间所有的男丁都要受割礼，和他们一样。
23 bothe her substaunce, and scheep, and alle thingis which thei welden, schulen be oure; oneli assente we in this, that we dwelle to gidere, and make o puple.
他们的群畜、货财，和一切的牲口岂不都归我们吗？只要依从他们，他们就与我们同住。”
24 And alle men assentiden, and alle malis weren circumcidid.
凡从城门出入的人就都听从哈抹和他儿子示剑的话；于是凡从城门出入的男丁都受了割礼。
25 And lo! in the thridde day, whanne the sorewe of woundis was moost greuous, twei sones of acob, Symeon and Leuy, britheren of Dyna, token swerdis, and entriden in to the citee booldeli; and whanne alle malis weren slayn,
到第三天，众人正在疼痛的时候，雅各的两个儿子，就是底拿的哥哥西缅和利未，各拿刀剑，趁着众人想不到的时候来到城中，把一切男丁都杀了，
26 thei killiden Emor and Sichem togidere, and token Dyna, her sistir, fro the hous of Sichem.
又用刀杀了哈抹和他儿子示剑，把底拿从示剑家里带出来就走了。
27 And whanne thei weren goon out, othere sones of Jacob felden in on the slayn men, and rifeliden the citee for the veniaunce of defoulyng of a virgyn.
雅各的儿子们因为他们的妹子受了玷污，就来到被杀的人那里，掳掠那城，
28 And thei wastiden the scheep of tho men, and droues of oxun, and assis, and alle thingis that weren in howsis and feeldis,
夺了他们的羊群、牛群，和驴，并城里田间所有的；
29 and ledden prisoneris the litle children, and wyues of tho men.
又把他们一切货财、孩子、妇女，并各房中所有的，都掳掠去了。
30 And whanne these thingis weren don hardili, Jacob seide to Symeon and Leuy, Ye han troblid me, and han maad me hateful to Cananeis and Fereseis, dwellers of this lond; we ben fewe, thei schulen be gaderid to gidere and schulen sle me, and Y schal be don a wey and myn hous.
雅各对西缅和利未说：“你们连累我，使我在这地的居民中，就是在迦南人和比利洗人中，有了臭名。我的人丁既然稀少，他们必聚集来击杀我，我和全家的人都必灭绝。”
31 Symeon and Leuy answeriden, Whether thei ouyten mysuse oure sistir as an hoore?
他们说：“他岂可待我们的妹子如同妓女吗？”
