< Genesisy 34 >

1 Dia nivoaka Dina, zanakavavin’ i Lea, izay naterany tamin’ i Jakoba, mba hizaha ny zazavavy tompon-tany.
And Dinah the daughter of Leah, which she bare unto Jacob, went out to see the daughters of the land.
2 Ary nahita azy Sekema, zanakalahin’ i Hamora Hivita, andriana tamin’ izany tany izany; dia naka azy izy ary nandry taminy ka nampietry azy.
And Shechem the son of Hamor the Hivite, the prince of the land, saw her; and he took her, and lay with her, and humbled her.
3 Ary ny fony dia raiki-pitia tamin’ i Dina, zanakavavin’ i Jakoba; eny, tia ny zazavavy izy, ka dia nanao teny malefaka nahafinaritra azy.
And his soul clave unto Dinah the daughter of Jacob, and he loved the damsel, and spake kindly unto the damsel.
4 Ary Sekema dia niteny tamin’ i Hamora rainy ka nanao hoe: Alao io zazavavy io ho vadiko.
And Shechem spake unto his father Hamor, saying, Get me this damsel to wife.
5 Ary ren’ i Jakoba fa efa nandoto an’ i Dina zananivavy izy; nefa ny zananilahy mbola niandry ny omby aman’ ondriny tany an-tsaha; ka dia nangina aloha Jakoba mandra-pahatongany.
Now Jacob heard that he had defiled Dinah his daughter; and his sons were with his cattle in the field: and Jacob held his peace until they came.
6 Dia nivoaka Hamora, rain’ i Sekema, nankany amin’ i Jakoba hidinika taminy.
And Hamor the father of Shechem went out unto Jacob to commune with him.
7 Ary ny zanak’ i Jakoba dia tonga avy tany an-tsaha, rehefa nandre izy, ka nalahelo sady tezitra indrindra, satria Sekema efa nanao izay fady indrindra teo amin’ ny Isiraely noho ny nandriany tamin’ ny zanakavavin’ i Jakoba; fa zavatra izay tsy tokony hatao izany.
And the sons of Jacob came in 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.
8 Ary Hamora nidinika taminy ka nanao hoe: Ny fon’ i Sekema zanakolahy efa raiki-pitia amin’ ny zanakareo-vavy; koa masìna ianareo, mba omeo azy ho vadiny.
And Hamor communed with them, saying, The soul of my son Shechem longeth for your daughter: I pray you give her unto him to wife.
9 Ary aoka hifanambady anaka isika: omeo anay ny zanakareo vavy, ary alao ho anareo kosa ny zanakai-vavy,
And make ye marriages with us; give your daughters unto us, and take our daughters unto you.
10 Dia hiara-monina aminay ianareo; ary indro ny tany eo anoloanareo; oneno, dia manaova varotra ao, ary aoka ho isan’ ny tompon-tany ianareo.
And ye shall dwell with us: and the land shall be before you; dwell and trade ye therein, and get you possessions therein.
11 Ary hoy Sekema tamin’ ny rain’ i Dina sy ny anadahiny: Aoka mba hahita fitia eto imasonareo aho, ary izay lazainareo amiko dia homeko;
And Shechem said unto her father and unto her brethren, Let me find grace in your eyes, and what ye shall say unto me I will give.
12 na dia harena be sy zavatra betsaka aza no asainareo homeko, dia homeko ihany araka izay holazainareo amiko; fa omeo ahy ny zazavavy ho vadiko.
Ask me never so much dowry and gift, and I will give according as ye shall say unto me: but give me the damsel to wife.
13 Ary ny zanak’ i Jakoba namaly an’ i Sekema sy Hamora rainy tamin’ ny fitaka ka nisaroro azy noho ny nandotoany an’ i Dina anabaviny;
And the sons of Jacob answered Shechem and Hamor his father with guile, and spake, because he had defiled Dinah their sister,
14 ary hoy izy taminy: Tsy azonay atao ny hanome ny anabavinay ho an’ izay lehilahy tsy voafora; fa fahavetavetana aminay izany.
and said unto them, We cannot do this thing, to give our sister to one that is uncircumcised; for that were a reproach unto us:
15 Izao ihany no azonay hanekena anareo: Raha ho tahaka anay ianareo, ka hoforana ny lehilahy rehetra aminareo,
Only on this condition will we consent unto you: if ye will be as we be, that every male of you be circumcised;
16 dia homenay anareo ny zanakai-vavy, ary ny zanakareo-vavy kosa halainay ho anay, dia hiara-monina aminareo izahay, ka ho firenena iray isika.
then will we give our daughters unto you, and we will take your daughters to us, and we will dwell with you, and we will become one people.
17 Fa raha tsy hanaraka ny teninay ianareo ka hoforana dia halainay ny zanakai-vavy, ka handeha izahay.
But if ye will not hearken unto us, to be circumcised; then will we take our daughter, and we will be gone.
18 Dia sitrak’ i Hamorasy Sekema zanany izany teniny izany.
And their words pleased Hamor, and Shechem Hamor’s son.
19 Ary tsy nitaredretra ilay zatovo hanao izany zavatra izany, satria efa tia ny zanakavavin’ i Jakoba izy. Ary izy no nalaza indrindra tamin’ izay rehetra tao an-tranon’ ny rainy.
And the young man deferred not to do the thing, because he had delight in Jacob’s daughter: and he was honoured above all the house of his father.
20 Ary Hamora sy Sekema zananilahy nankeo amin’ ny vavahadin’ ny tanànany, dia niteny tamin’ ny mponina tao an-tanànany ka nanao hoe:
And Hamor and Shechem his son came unto the gate of their city, and communed with the men of their city, saying,
21 Ireo olona ireo mipetraka tsara eto amintsika, dia aoka honina eto amin’ ny tany izy ka hanao varotra eto; fa, indro, ny tany dia malalaka eo anoloany; ny zananivavy dia aoka halaintsika ho vadintsika, ary ny zanatsika vavy dia aoka homentsika azy kosa.
These men are peaceable with us; therefore let them dwell in the land, and trade therein; for, behold, the land is large enough for them; let us take their daughters to us for wives, and let us give them our daughters.
22 Nefa izao monja ihany no hanaovan’ ireo lehilahy ireo fanekena amintsika mba hiara-monina amintsika ho firenena iray: mba hoforana koa, hono, ny lehilahy rehetra eto amintsika tahaka izay namorana azy ireo.
Only on this condition will the men consent unto us to dwell with us, to become one people, if every male among us be circumcised, as they are circumcised.
23 Tsy ho antsika va ny omby aman’ ondriny sy ny fananany mbamin’ ny biby fiompiny rehetra? Aoka hanaiky ny teniny ihany isika, dia hiara-monina amintsika izy.
Shall not their cattle and their substance and all their beasts be ours? only let us consent unto them, and they will dwell with us.
24 Ary izay rehetra nivoaka tamin’ ny vavahadin’ ny tanànany dia nanaiky ny tenin’ i Hamora sy Sekema zanany; ary noforana ny lehilahy rehetra, dia izay rehetra nivoaka tamin’ ny vavahadin’ ny tanànany.
And unto Hamor and unto 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.
25 Ary nony tamin’ ny andro fahatelo, rehefa ilay narary mafy iny izy ireo, dia samy nitondra ny sabany ny zanak’ i Jakoba roa lahy, dia Simeona sy Levy, anadahin’ i Dina, ka niakatra sahisahy tao an-tanàna, dia namono ny lehilahy rehetra tao.
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 unawares, and slew all the males.
26 Ary Hamora sy Sekema zananilahy dia novonoiny tamin’ ny lelan-tsabatra koa; dia naka an’ i Dina tao an-tranon’ i Sekema izy ka lasa nandeha.
And they slew Hamor and Shechem his son with the edge of the sword, and took Dinah out of Shechem’s house, and went forth.
27 Ary ny zanak’ i Jakoba nankeny amin’ ny faty ka namabo ny tanàna noho ny nandotoany ny anabaviny.
The sons of Jacob came upon the slain, and spoiled the city, because they had defiled their sister.
28 Ny ondry aman’ osiny sy ny ombiny sy ny borikiny mbamin’ izay rehetra tao an-tanàna sy izay rehetra tany an-tsaha dia nahorony avokoa;
They took their flocks and their herds and their asses, and that which was in the city, and that which was in the field;
29 ary ny fananany rehetra sy ny zanany madinika rehetra ary ny vadiny dia nobaboiny ka nofaohiny avokoa mbamin’ izay rehetra tao an-trano.
and all their wealth, and all their little ones and their wives, took they captive and spoiled, even all that was in the house.
30 Ary hoy Jakoba tamin’ i Simeona sy Levy: Efa nahatonga loza amiko ianareo, fa efa nomaimboinareo eto amin’ ny mponina amin’ ny tany aho, dia amin’ ny Kananita sy ny Perizita; nefa olom-bitsy aho, ka dia hiangona hamely ahy izy ireo ka hamono ahy; dia ho fongotra aho, dia izaho sy ny ankohonako.
And Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, Ye have troubled me, to make me to stink among the inhabitants of the land, among the Canaanites and the Perizzites: and, I being few in number, they will gather themselves together against me and smite me; and I shall be destroyed, I and my house.
31 Fa hoy kosa izy: Moa ny anabavinay havela hataony toy ny vehivavy janga va?
And they said, Should he deal with our sister as with an harlot?
