Génesis 34
1 Dina, la hija de Lea, que dio a luz a Jacob, salió a ver a las hijas de la tierra.
And Dina, the daughter of Lea, whom she bore to Jacob, went forth to observe the daughters of the inhabitants.
2 La vio Siquem, hijo de Hamor el heveo, príncipe de la tierra. La tomó, se acostó con ella y la humilló.
And Sychem the son of Emmor the Evite, the ruler of the land, saw her, and took her and lay with her, and humbled her.
3 Su alma se unió a Dina, la hija de Jacob, y amó a la joven, y le habló con cariño.
And he was attached to the soul of Dina the daughter of Jacob, and he loved the damsel, and he spoke kindly to the damsel.
4 Siquem habló con su padre, Hamor, diciendo: “Consígueme a esta joven como esposa”.
Sychem spoke to Emmor his father, saying, Take for me this damsel to wife.
5 Jacob se enteró de que había mancillado a su hija Dina, y sus hijos estaban con su ganado en el campo. Jacob calló hasta que llegaron.
And Jacob heard that the son of Emmor had defiled Dina his daughter (now his sons were with his cattle in the plain). And Jacob was silent until they came.
6 Hamor, el padre de Siquem, salió a buscar a Jacob para hablar con él.
And Emmor the father of Sychem went forth to Jacob, to speak to him.
7 Los hijos de Jacob vinieron del campo cuando lo oyeron. Los hombres se entristecieron y se enojaron mucho, porque él había hecho una locura en Israel al acostarse con la hija de Jacob, cosa que no debía hacerse.
And the sons of Jacob came from the plain; and when they heard, the men were deeply pained, and it was very grievous to them, because [the man] wrought folly in Israel, having lain with the daughter of Jacob, and so it must not be.
8 Hamor habló con ellos, diciendo: “El alma de mi hijo Siquem anhela a su hija. Por favor, dénsela como esposa.
And Emmor spoke to them, saying, Sychem my son has chosen in his heart your daughter; give her therefore to him for a wife,
9 Hagan matrimonios con nosotros. Dennos sus hijas y tomen las nuestras para ustedes.
and intermarry with us. Give us your daughters, and take our daughters for your sons.
10 Viviréis con nosotros, y la tierra estará ante vosotros. Vivan y comercien en ella, y obtengan posesiones en ella”.
And dwell in the midst of us; and, behold, the land is spacious before you, dwell in it, and trade, and get possessions in it.
11 Siquem dijo a su padre y a sus hermanos: “Dejadme encontrar el favor de vuestros ojos, y todo lo que me digáis os lo daré.
And Sychem said to her father and to her brothers, I would find grace before you, and we will give whatever you shall name.
12 Pedidme una gran cantidad como dote, y os daré lo que me pidáis, pero dadme a la joven como esposa”.
Multiply [your demand of] dowry very much, and I will give accordingly as you shall say to me, only you shall give me this damsel for a wife.
13 Los hijos de Jacob respondieron a Siquem y a su padre Hamor con engaño cuando hablaron, porque había mancillado a Dina, su hermana,
And the sons of Jacob answered to Sychem and Emmor his father craftily, and spoke to them, because they had defiled Dina their sister.
14 y les dijeron: “No podemos hacer esto, entregar a nuestra hermana a un incircunciso; porque eso es un reproche para nosotros.
And Symeon and Levi, the brothers of Dina, said to them, We shall not be able to do this thing, to give our sister to a man who is uncircumcised, for it is a reproach to us.
15 Sólo con esta condición os consentiremos. Si sois como nosotros, que todo varón de vosotros sea circuncidado,
Only on these terms will we conform to you, and dwell among you, if you also will be as we are, in that every male of you be circumcised.
16 entonces os daremos nuestras hijas; y tomaremos vuestras hijas para nosotros, y moraremos con vosotros, y seremos un solo pueblo.
And we will give our daughters to you, and we will take of your daughters for wives to us, and we will dwell with you, and we will be as one race.
17 Pero si no nos escucháis y os circuncidáis, entonces tomaremos a nuestra hermana, y nos iremos”.
But if you will not listen to us to be circumcised, we will take our daughter and depart.
18 Sus palabras agradaron a Hamor y a Siquem, hijo de Hamor.
And the words pleased Emmor, and Sychem the son of Emmor.
19 El joven no esperó para hacer esto, porque se había deleitado en la hija de Jacob, y fue honrado sobre toda la casa de su padre.
And the young man delayed not to do this thing, for he was much attached to Jacob's daughter, and he was the most honorable of all in his father's house.
20 Hamor y Siquem, su hijo, llegaron a la puerta de su ciudad, y hablaron con los hombres de su ciudad, diciendo:
And Emmor and Sychem his son came to the gate of their city, and spoke to the men of their city, saying,
21 “Estos hombres son pacíficos con nosotros. Por lo tanto, déjenlos vivir en la tierra y comerciar en ella. Porque he aquí que la tierra es suficientemente grande para ellos. Tomemos a sus hijas para nosotros como esposas, y démosles nuestras hijas.
These men are peaceful, let them dwell with us upon the land, and let them trade in it, and behold the land is extensive before them; we will take their daughters to us for wives, and we will give them our daughters.
22 Sólo con esta condición los hombres consentirán en vivir con nosotros, para ser un solo pueblo, si todo varón de entre nosotros se circuncida, como ellos se circuncidan.
Only on these terms will the men conform to us to dwell with us so as to be one people, if every male of us be circumcised, as they also are circumcised.
23 ¿No será nuestro su ganado y sus posesiones y todos sus animales? Sólo démosles nuestro consentimiento, y ellos habitarán con nosotros”.
And shall not their cattle and their herds, and their possessions, be ours? only in this let us conform to them, and they will dwell with us.
24 Todos los que salían de la puerta de su ciudad escuchaban a Hamor y a su hijo Siquem, y todo varón era circuncidado, todos los que salían de la puerta de su ciudad.
And all that went in at the gate of their city listened to Emmor and Sychem his son, and they were circumcised in the flesh of their foreskin every male.
25 Al tercer día, cuando ya estaban adoloridos, dos de los hijos de Jacob, Simeón y Leví, hermanos de Dina, tomaron cada uno su espada, vinieron a la ciudad desprevenida y mataron a todos los varones.
And it came to pass on the third day, when they were in pain, the two sons of Jacob, Symeon and Levi, Dina's brethren, took each man his sword, and came upon the city securely, and killed every male.
26 Mataron a Hamor y a Siquem, su hijo, a filo de espada, y sacaron a Dina de la casa de Siquem y se fueron.
And they killed Emmor and Sychem his son with the edge of the sword, and took Dina out of the house of Sychem, and went forth.
27 Los hijos de Jacob vinieron sobre los muertos y saquearon la ciudad, porque habían profanado a su hermana.
But the sons of Jacob came upon the wounded, and ravaged the city wherein they had defiled Dina their sister.
28 Tomaron sus rebaños, sus vacas, sus asnos, lo que había en la ciudad, lo que había en el campo,
And their sheep, and their oxen, and their asses they took, and all things whatever were in the city, and whatever were in the plain.
29 y toda su riqueza. Llevaron cautivos a todos sus pequeños y a sus mujeres, y tomaron como botín todo lo que había en la casa.
And they took captive all the persons of them, and all their store, and their wives, and plundered both whatever things there were in the city, and whatever things there were in the houses.
30 Jacob dijo a Simeón y a Leví: “Me habéis turbado para hacerme odioso a los habitantes del país, entre los cananeos y los ferezeos. Soy poco numeroso. Se reunirán contra mí y me atacarán, y seré destruido, yo y mi casa”.
And Jacob said to Symeon and Levi, You have made me hateful so that I should be evil to all the inhabitants of the land, both among the Chananites and the Pherezites, and I am few in number; they will gather themselves against me and cut me in pieces, and I shall be utterly destroyed, and my house.
31 Dijeron: “¿Debe tratar a nuestra hermana como a una prostituta?”
And they said, Nay, but shall they treat our sister as an harlot?
