< Kinohi 34 >

1 HELE aku la o Dina o ke kaikamahine a Lea i hanau ai na Iakoba, e ike i na kaikamahine o ia aina.
One day Dinah, the daughter of Jacob and Leah, went to visit some of the women in that area.
2 A ike mai la o Sekema o ke keiki a Hamora no ka Hivi ke alii o ua aina la ia ia, lalau aku la kela ia ia, moe iho la me ia, a hoohaumia ia ia.
Shechem, one of the sons of Hamor, the ruler of that area who was descended from the Hiv people-group, saw her. He wanted her. So he grabbed her and forced her to have sex [EUP] with him.
3 Hoopili mai la kona naau ia Dina i ke kaikamahine a Iakoba; aloha mai la ia i ua kaikamahine la, a olelo oluolu mai la i ua kaikamahine la.
He [SYN] was very much attracted to her, and fell in love with her, and he tried to get her to love him.
4 Olelo aku la o Sekema i kona makuakane ia Hamora, E kii aku oe i ua kaikamahine la, i wahine na'u.
So Shechem said to his father Hamor, “Please get this girl for me. I want her to become my wife!”
5 Lohe ae la o Iakoba ua hoohaumia oia i kana kaikamahine ia Dina: aia no kana mau keikikane ma ke kula me kona poe holoholona; a noho olelo ole la o Iakoba, a hoi mai la lakou.
Jacob very soon found out that his daughter Dinah had been disgraced/defiled. But his sons were in the fields with his livestock, so he did nothing about it until they returned home.
6 Hele aku la o Hamora, ka makuakane o Sekema iwaho io Iakoba la e kamailio me ia.
In the meantime, Shechem’s father Hamor went to talk with Jacob.
7 A lohe ae la na keiki a Iakoba, hoi mai la lakou mai ke kela mai: ehaeha loa ka naau o ua poe kanaka la, a huhu loa iho la lakou, no ka mea, ua hana mai ia i ka mea kolohe i ka Iseraela, i ka moe ana me ke kaikamahine a Iakoba; ka mea pono ole ke hanaia pela.
While they were still talking, Jacob’s sons came in from the field. When they found out what had happened, they were shocked and very angry. They said, “Shechem has done something that is very disgraceful among us Israeli people, something that never should be done!”
8 Kamailio mai la o Hamora me lakou, i mai la, Ua pili ka naau o kuu keikikane i ka oukou kaikamahine: ke noi aku nei au ia oukou, e haawi mai ia ia i wahine nana.
But Hamor said to them, “My son Shechem really likes this girl. Please allow him to marry her.
9 E mare mai oukou me makou; e haawi mai i na kaikamahine a oukou na makou, a e lawe hoi i na kaikamahine a makou na oukou.
Let’s make an agreement: You will give your daughters to our young men to be their wives, and we will give our daughters to your young men to be their wives.
10 E noho pu oukou me makou: imua hoi o ko oukou alo ka aina: e noho oukou, a e kuai hoi iloko, a e hoolilo i ka aina no oukou.
You can live among us, and live anywhere in our land that you wish. You can buy and sell things (OR, travel around) and if you find land that you want, then you can buy it.”
11 Olelo mai la hoi o Sekema i ko Dina makuakane a me kona mau kaikunane, E lokomaikai mai oukou ia'u, a e haawi aku hoi au i ka oukou mea e olelo mai ai ia'u.
Then Shechem said to Dinah’s father and brothers, “If you feel good toward me and do what I am asking for, I will give you whatever you ask for.
12 E hoonui loa oukou i ka'u mea e uku aku ai, a me ka makana, a e haawi aku no au e like me ka oukou e olelo mai ai: aka, e haawi mai i ke kaikamahine i wahine na'u.
Tell me what gifts you want and what bride price you want, and I will give you what you ask for. I just want you to give the girl to me to be my wife.”
13 Olelo hoopunipuni aku la na keikikane a Iakoba ia Sekema, a ia Hamora i kona makuakane, olelo lakou pela, no ka mea, ua hoohaumia oia ia Dina i ko lakou kaikuwahine.
But because Shechem had done a shameful thing to their sister Dinah, the sons of Jacob deceived Shechem and his father Hamor
14 Olelo aku la lakou ia laua, Aole e pono ia makou ke hana ia mea, ke haawi aku i ko makou kaikuwahine na ka mea i okipoepoe ole ia; no ka mea, he mea hoino ia no makou.
by saying to them, “No, we cannot do that. We cannot give our sister to be the wife of a man who is not circumcised, because that would be a shameful thing for us to do.
15 Penei wale no ka makou e ae aku ai ia olua, a i like auanei oukou me makou, i okipoepoeia na kane o oukou a pau;
We will do that only if you do one thing: You must become like us by circumcising all the males that are among you.
16 Alaila makou e haawi aku ai i ka makou kaikamahine na oukou, a e lawe hoi i na kaikamahine a oukou na makou; a e noho pu me oukou, a lilo kakou i hookahi poe kanaka.
Then we will give our daughters to your young men to be your wives, and we will take your daughters to be the wives of our young men. We will live among you, and we will become one people-group.
17 Aka, ke hoolohe ole oukou i ka makou, e okipoepoeia'i; alaila e lawe aku makou i ka makou kaikamahine, a e hele.
But if you will not agree to being circumcised, we will take our sister and go back to our land.”
18 A he oluolu ka lakou olelo ia Hamora, a me Sekema ke keiki a Hamora.
What they said pleased Hamor and his son Shechem.
19 Aole i hoopanee aku na kanaka opiopio la i ka hana ana ia mea; no ka mea, he makemake kona i ke kaikamahine a Iakoba: a ua oi aku kona maikai imua o ko ka hale a pau o kona makuakane.
Shechem was very much in love with Jacob’s daughter, so he quickly agreed to do what they suggested.
20 Hele aku la o Hamora, laua o Sekema o kana keiki ma ka ipuka o ko laua kulanakauhale, a kamailio pu iho la me na kanaka o ko laua kulanakauhale, i kai ana aku,
Shechem went with Hamor to the meeting place near the city gate, and they spoke to the city leaders, saying,
21 Ea, ke noho malie nei keia poe kanaka me kakou; nolaila, e hoonoho kakou ia lakou ma ka aina, e piele lakou iloko; no ka mea, o ka aina, aia hoi, ua akea ia no lakou; e lawe kakou i na kaikamahine a lakou i wahine na kakou, a e haawi aku hoi kakou i na kaikamahine a kakou na lakou.
“These men are friendly toward us. We should let them live here and travel around (OR, buy and sell things) and if they find land that they want, they can buy it. There is plenty of land for them to live here. Our young men can marry their daughters, and their young men can marry our daughters.
22 Penei wale no e ae mai ai ua poe kanaka la e noho me kakou, hookahi poe, i okipoepoeia na kane a pau o kakou, e like me lakou i okipoepoeia'i.
But these men will agree to live among us and become one people-group with us only if all our males are circumcised, as they are.
23 Aole anei e lilo na kakou ko lakou poe holoholona iki, ka lakou waiwai, a me na holoholona nui a pau a lakou? E ae wale aku no kakou ia lakou, a e noho pu auanei lakou me kakou.
But if we do that, just think! Their livestock and their possessions and their other animals will become ours [RHQ]! So we should agree to do what they suggest, and then they will live among us!”
24 Hoolohe aku la lakou ia Hamora a i kana keiki ia Sekema, o ka poe a pau i puka iwaho ma ka ipuka o kona kulanakauhale: a ua okipoepoeia na kane a pau, ka poe a pau i puka iwaho ma ka ipuka o kona kulanakauhale.
Shechem was the most respected person in his father’s household, so all the men who were there at the city gate agreed to what Hamor and Shechem suggested. So every male in the city was circumcised.
25 A i ke kolu o ka la, ia lakou i eha ai, o na keikikane elua a Iakoba, o Simeona laua o Levi, na kaikunane o Dina, lalau aku la laua i na pahikaua a laua, hele aku la laua i ua kulanakauhale la me ka makau ole, a pepehi aku la i na kane a pau.
On the third day after that, when the men of the city were still sore because of being circumcised, two of Jacob’s sons, Simeon and Levi, who were Dinah’s brothers, took their swords and entered the city without anyone opposing them, and killed all the men.
26 Pepehi aku la laua ia Hamora, laua o Sekema o kana keiki me ka maka o ka pahikaua, lawe aku la hoi ia Dina iwaho o ka hale o Sekema, a hele aku la iwaho.
They even killed Hamor and his son Shechem. Then they took Dinah out of Shechem’s house and left the city.
27 Held mai la na keiki a Iakoba i ka poe i pepehiia, a lawe pio ae la i ka waiwai o ke kulanakauhale; no ka mea, ua hoohaumia lakou i ko lakou kaikuwahine.
Then the other sons of Jacob went into the city where all those dead bodies were. They (looted/took everything in) the city to get revenge for the shameful thing that had been done to their sister.
28 Lawe pio aku la hoi lakou i na hipa a lakou, a me na bipi a lakou, a me na hoki a lakou, me ko loko o ke kulanakauhale, a me ko ke kula,
They took away the people’s sheep and goats, their cattle, their donkeys, and everything else that they wanted from inside the city and from out in the countryside.
29 Me ko lakou waiwai a pau, me ka lakou kamalii a pau, a me na wahine a lakou, na pau ia lakou i ka hoopioia; a hao ae la lakou i na mea a pau o ka hale.
They took away everything that was valuable, even the children and the women. They seized and took away everything that was in the houses.
30 Olelo aku la o Iakoba ia Simeona laua o Levi, Ua hoopilikia mai olua ia'u, i pilau aku ai au iwaena o na kanaka o ka aina nei, iwaena o ka Kanaana a me ka Perezi: a owau la e, he poe uuku ko'u, e hoakoakoa mai auanei lakou e ku e ia'u, a e pepehi mai ia'u, a e make auanei au me ko ka Hale o'u.
Then Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, “You have caused a lot of trouble for me! Now the Canaan people-group and the Perizzi people-group and everyone else who lives in this land will (hate me/say my name stinks)! I do not have many men to fight for us, so if they all gather together and come to me and attack us, they will destroy us and all our household!”
31 I mai la lakou, E pono anei e hana mai ia i ko makou kaikuwahine, me he wahine hookamakama la?
But they replied, “(Should we have allowed Shechem to treat our sister like a prostitute?/We could not just let Shechem treat our sister like a prostitute!)” [RHQ]
