Jenèz 34
1 Alò, Dina, fi Léa te fè pou Jacob la te sòti pou vizite fi peyi yo nan kote sa a.
Dinah, the daughter whom Leah had borne to Jacob, went out to visit the women of the region.
2 Lè Sichem, fis Hamor a, Evyen an, prens nan peyi a te wè li, li te pran li, e pa lafòs, li te kouche avèk li.
When Shechem the son of Hamor the Hivite, the ruler of the land, saw her, he grabbed her, and raped her, and humiliated her.
3 Li te vrèman atire a Dina, fi Jacob la. Li te renmen fi a, e li te pale ak dousè avè l.
Then he became very attached to Dinah, the daughter of Jacob, and he loved the young woman, and spoke kindly to the young woman.
4 Alò, Sichem te pale avèk papa l Hamor. Li te di: “Fè m jwenn jèn fi sa a pou madanm.”
Shechem spoke to his father, Hamor, saying, "Get me this young woman as my wife."
5 Alò, Jacob te tande ke li te vyole Dina, fi li a, men fis li yo te avèk bèt yo nan chan an. Alò, li te rete san pale jis lè yo te vin antre.
Now Jacob heard that he had defiled Dinah, his daughter; and his sons were with his livestock in the field. Jacob remained silent until they came.
6 Hamor, papa a Sichem, te vin deyò a pou pale avèk li.
Hamor the father of Shechem went out to Jacob to speak with him.
7 Alò, fis a Jacob yo te sòti nan chan an lè yo te tande koze sa a. Konsa, mesye yo te blese. Yo te vin byen fache, akoz ke li te fè yon choz meprizab an Israël lè li te kouche avèk fi Jacob la, paske yon bagay konsa pa t dwe fèt.
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 disgraced Israel by sexually assaulting Jacob's daughter; a thing that should not be done.
8 Men Hamor te pale avèk yo. Li te di: “Nanm fis mwen an, Sichem anvi fi ou a anpil. Pou sa, silvouplè, ba li li pou yo marye.
Hamor talked with them, saying, "The heart of my son Shechem is set on your daughter. Please give her to him as a wife.
9 Annou marye yo youn pou lòt. Bay fi ou yo a nou menm, e pran fi nou yo pou ou menm.
Arrange marriages with us. Give your daughters to us, and take our daughters for yourselves.
10 Konsa, ou va viv avèk nou, e peyi a va vin ouvri devan nou. Viv ladann, e fè afè nou yo ladann.”
You may settle among us, and the land will be open to you. Live and trade in it, and acquire property in it."
11 Sichem te di osi a papa ak frè a Dina, “Kite mwen twouve favè nan zye nou. Konsa, mwen va bannou nenpòt sa ke nou mande m.
Shechem said to her father and to her brothers, "Let me find favor in your sight, and whatever you ask of me I will give.
12 Mande m tan kòm pèyman avèk kado, e mwen va bannou nenpòt sa nou mande mwen, men ban mwen fi a pou marye.”
Ask me for a very expensive bride price, and I will pay whatever you ask of me, but give me the young woman as a wife."
13 Konsa, fis Jacob yo te reponn Sichem avèk papa li Hamor avèk desepsyon, akoz ke li te vyole Dina, sè yo a.
The sons of Jacob replied deceitfully to Shechem and his father Hamor, because he had defiled their sister Dinah.
14 Yo te di yo: “Nou pa kapab fè bagay sa a, pou bay sè nou an a yon moun ki pa sikonsi. Sa ta yon wont pou nou tout.
And they said to them, "We can't do this thing, to give our sister to one who is uncircumcised; for that would be a disgrace to us.
15 Sou yon sèl kondisyon nou ta kapab dakò: si nou va vini tankou nou. Sa vle di ke chak mal nan nou ta vin sikonsi.
Only on this condition will we agree with you; that you become like us by circumcising all your males;
16 Konsa, nou va bay sè nou yo a nou menm, nou va viv avèk nou e vin yon sèl pèp.
then will we give our daughters to you, and we will take your daughters to ourselves, and we will live among you and become one people.
17 Men si nou pa koute nou pou vin sikonsi, alò, n ap pran sè nou an e ale.”
But if you will not listen to us and be circumcised, then we will take our daughter and go away."
18 Alò, pawòl pa yo a te parèt rezonab a Hamor avèk Sichem, fis Hamor a.
Their words pleased Hamor and Shechem, Hamor's son.
19 Jennonm sa a pa t pèdi tan pou fè bagay la, paske li te tèlman kontan avèk fi Jacob la. Epi li te jwenn respe depase tout moun ki lakay papa li a.
The young man did not delay to do this thing, because he was delighted with Jacob's daughter. Now he was the most important of anyone in his father's house.
20 Konsa, Hamor, avèk fis li a, Sichem te vini nan pòtay vil yo, li te pale avèk mesye nan vil yo, e li te di:
Hamor and his son Shechem came to the gate of their city, and spoke to the men of their city, saying,
21 “Moun sa yo se zanmi nou yo ye; pou sa, annou kite yo viv nan peyi a pou fè komès ladann, paske, gade byen, peyi a ase gran pou yo. Annou pran fi yo an maryaj, e bay fi nou yo a yo menm.
"These men are at peace with us. Therefore let them live in the land and travel in it. For look, the land is large enough for them. Let us take their daughters as wives for ourselves, and let us give them our daughters.
22 “Se sèl sou kondisyon sa a ke moun sa yo va vin dakò pou vin viv avèk nou, pou vin yon sèl pèp; ke chak mal pami nou vin sikonsi tankou yo menm tou deja sikonsi a.
Only on this condition will the men agree to live with us as one people: that every male among us be circumcised, as they are circumcised.
23 Se pa ke bèt, byen ak tout zannimo yo va vin pou nou? Sèlman annou vin dakò avèk yo, e yo va viv avèk nou.”
Won't their livestock and their possessions and all their animals be ours? Only let us agree with them, so they will settle among us."
24 Tout sa yo ki te sòti nan pòtay lavil la te koute Hamor, avèk fis li a, Sichem. Konsa, chak mal te sikonsi, tout moun ki te sòti nan pòtay vil la.
All who went out of the gate of his city agreed with Hamor and his son Shechem; and every male was circumcised, all who went out of the gate of his city.
25 Alò, li te rive nan twazyèm jou a, lè yo te nan doulè, de nan fis a Jacob yo, Siméon avèk Lévi, frè a Dina yo, yo chak te pran nepe yo. Yo te vini sou vil la san yo pa konnen, e yo te touye tout mal yo.
It happened on the third day, when they were still in pain, that two of Jacob's sons, Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brothers, each took his sword and came into the unsuspecting city and killed all the males.
26 Yo te touye Hamor avèk fis li a, Sichem, avèk lam file a nepe yo. Yo te pran Dina soti lakay Sichem nan, e yo te ale.
They killed Hamor and his son Shechem with their swords and took Dinah out of Shechem's house and left.
27 Fis Jacob yo te vini sou mò yo. Yo te piyaje vil la akoz ke yo te vyole sè yo a.
Jacob's sons entered over the dead and plundered the city, because they had defiled their sister.
28 Yo te pran bann mouton, twoupo ak bourik, sa ki te nan vil la, ak sa ki te nan chan an.
They took their flocks, their herds, their donkeys, and whatever was in the city and was in the field,
29 Epi yo te kaptire e piyaje tout byen yo, tout pitit yo, madanm yo, menm tout sa ki te lakay yo.
and all their wealth. They took captive all their little ones and their wives, and took as plunder everything that was in the houses.
30 Alò Jacob te di a Siméon avèk Lévi: “Nou vin pote pwoblèm pou mwen akoz ke nou fè m vin rayi pa abitan peyi yo, pami Kananeyen avèk Ferezyen yo. Epi akoz ke gason nou yo pa anpil, yo va rasanble kont mwen, pou atake mwen, e mwen va vin detwi, mwen menm avèk tout lakay mwen.”
Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, "You have brought trouble on 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 attack me, and I and my household will be destroyed."
31 Men yo te di: “Èske yo ta dwe trete sè nou an tankou yon pwostitiye?”
But they said, "Should he treat our sister like a prostitute?"
